“…Added to this, associations between nurse stress and job performance [22][23][24], quality of care [25,26] and patient safety [27,28] have been established. Yet despite this evidence base, it is recognised that further work is needed to improve our understanding of the effects of stress (and burnout) on patient safety in nursing [29,30].…”

Purpose 2Stress is a significant concern for individuals and organisations. Few studies have explored stress, burnout and patient safety in hospital nursing on a daily basis at the individual level. This study aimed to examine the effects of chronic stress and daily hassles on safety perceptions, the effect of chronic stress on daily hassles experienced, and chronic stress as a potential moderator. MethodsUtilising a daily diary design, 83 UK hospital nurses completed three end of shift diaries, yielding 324 person days. Hassles, safety perceptions and workplace cognitive failure were measured daily, and a baseline questionnaire included a measure of chronic stress. Hierarchical multivariate linear modelling was used to analyse the data. ResultsHigher chronic stress was associated with more daily hassles, poorer perceptions of safety, being less able to practise safely, but not more workplace cognitive failure. Reporting more daily hassles was associated with poorer perceptions of safety, being less able to practise safely and more workplace cognitive failure. Chronic stress did not moderate daily associations. The hassles reported illustrate the wide-ranging hassles nurses experienced. ConclusionThe findings demonstrate in addition to chronic stress, the importance of daily hassles for nurses' perceptions of safety, and the hassles experienced by hospital nurses on a daily basis. Nurses' perceive chronic stress and daily hassles to contribute to their perceptions of safety. Measuring the number of daily hassles experienced could proactively highlight when patient safety threats may arise, and as a result interventions could usefully focus on the management of daily hassles.

“…(8) Burnout is a syndrome composed of three related dimensions -"emotional exhaustion," "depersonalization" and "reduced personal accomplishment," which develop in response to physical and emotional stress in the workplace. (9,10) High levels of burnout among nursing professionals are associated to job dissatisfaction, intention to leave the job and patients' dissatisfaction with the care received, which directly influence the quality of the care provided and patient safety. (5) In light of this context surrounding the professional practice of nursing, some instruments have been developed to measure organizational components of the nursing practice environment, among them, the Nursing Work Index -Revised (NWI-R).…”

Objective: To assess the reliability and validity of the Brazilian version of the Nursing Work Index-Revised among nursing aides and technicians. Methods: A methodological cross-sectional study was conducted in two teaching hospitals. The sample consisted of 150 subjects and data were collected with the use of a personal and professional information sheet, the Brazilian version of the Nursing Work Index-Revised for nursing aides and technicians and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Results: Cronbach's alpha varied from 0.58 to 0.77 among the subscales of the Nursing Work Index-Revised and all its subscales obtained significant correlation with the subscales of the Maslach Burnout Inventory and the "job satisfaction," "intention to leave the job," and "nurse perception of quality of care" variables. Conclusion: The instrument presented reliability and validity for evaluating the practice environment of these professionals. ResumoObjetivo: Avaliar a confiabilidade e validade da versão brasileira do Nursing Work Index -Revised entre auxiliares e técnicos de enfermagem. Métodos: Estudo metodológico, transversal, realizado em dois hospitais de ensino. A amostra foi composta por 150 sujeitos e para a coleta de dados foram utilizados: a ficha de caracterização pessoal e profissional, a versão brasileira do Nursing Work Index -Revised para auxiliares e técnicos de enfermagem e o Inventário de Burnout de Maslach. Resultados: O coeficiente alfa de Cronbach variou de 0,58 a 0,77 entre as subescalas do Nursing Work Index -Revised e todas as suas subescalas obtiveram correlação significativa com as subescalas do Inventário de Burnout de Maslach e as variáveis "satisfação com o trabalho", "intenção de deixar o emprego" e "percepção da qualidade do cuidado". Conclusão: O instrumento demonstrou confiabilidade e validade satisfatórias para avaliar o ambiente da prática desses profissionais.

“…Burnout has been studied in healthcare workers in Botswana (Uebel, Nash & Avalos, 2007), Ireland (Breen & Sweeney, 2012;McTiernan & McDonald, 2015;O'Mahony, 2011;Sharma, Sharp, Walker & Monson, 2008), Israel (Chayu & Kreitler, 2011), New Zealand (Hayes, Douglas & Bonner, 2014;Poghosyan, Clarke, Finlayson & Aiken, 2010), and Spain (Cañadas-De la Fuente, Vargas, San Luis, García, Cañadas, & De la Fuente, 2015;Suñer-Soler, Grau-Martin, Font-Mayolas, Gras, Bertran & Sullman 2013).…”

“…In a five-country study (U.S., Canada, U.K., Germany, New Zealand, and Japan), outcomes of burnout include an impact on nurses' perception of quality of care (Poghosyan et al, 2010). Healthcare workers who reported burnout were more likely to also report poor health-related quality of life (Suñer-Soler et al, 2013) …”

Partnering in research across disciplines and across countries can be challenging due to differing contexts of practice and culture. This study sought to demonstrate how central constructs that have application across disciplines and countries can be studied while concurrently considering context. Groups of nurses from Botswana, Ireland, Israel, New Zealand, and Spain partnered to identify how to measure the constructs of caring for self, burnout, and compassion fatigue, replicating a study by Johnson (2012), who found that caring for self had a moderately strong negative relationship with both compassion fatigue and burnout. While these constructs were of interest to all five groups, the conversation of contextual influences varied. All five groups used the same instruments to measure the central constructs. Levels of burnout and compassion fatigue varied by country but were moderated by caring for self. Partnering across countries made it possible to understand that caring for self moderates the negative impact of burnout and compassion fatigue in all five countries. This study gives insight into methods for partnering across disciplines and contexts.
