“…When comparing our results with those of similar studies, we encountered some difficulty as our bibliographic search yielded only two studies analysing burnout in palliative care nursing personnel, although this research question has been studied in oncology (Eelen et al., ; Girgis, Hansen, & Goldstein, ; Gómez‐Urquiza et al., ; Yu, Jiang, & Shen, ). In our study, approximately one in three people presented burnout, both overall and by component.…”

“…Oncology nursing is a specialist field of nursing which requires additional clinical knowledge and skills to ensure unassisted, professional and comprehensive care of a cancer patient (Cummings et al 2013). The unique aspects of oncology nursing include interdisciplinarity and complex relationships with co-workers, patients and their families (Yu et al 2016). Oncology nurses are involved in addressing somatic, psychological as well as spiritual needs of patients in a usually life-threatening disease (Aycock & Boyle 2009).…”

Aim The purpose of this project was to analyse the level of satisfaction with life amongst Polish oncology nurses compared to their system of values. Background There are a large number of scholarly reports on job satisfaction and occupational burnout among oncologic nurses, and hardly any impact on their level of life satisfaction. Introduction Satisfaction with life, positive feelings and lack of negative feelings are the three important elements of subjective well‐being. Methods A cross‐sectional survey study design was used. One hundred and forty registered nurses working at oncology centres in Poland were surveyed during the 21st Annual Polish Oncology Nursing Conference. The study used a diagnostic survey method utilizing the Satisfaction With Life Scale, the List of Personal Values and an original survey questionnaire for collecting socio‐demographic data. Results There was significant relationship between the level of satisfaction with life in oncology nurses and their age, work seniority, the working system and family life. Discussion Satisfaction with life and work is interconnected, and oncology nursing is characterized by significant physical and mental strain. The level of satisfaction depends on many variables, such as preferred system of values, work organization, age and work seniority. Conclusions Age and years of work experience affect oncology nurses’ satisfaction with life. Working on a shift system and having a second job lower their satisfaction with life. Nurses who identify happiness symbols in the category of happy family life present a higher level of satisfaction with life. Implications for nursing policy and practice The low level of satisfaction with life among Polish oncology nurses is an important factor in the contemporary threats in nursing, and commitment to the improvement of the quality of life in this professional group should become a priority of shaping the image of the profession.

“…Nurses who experience STS often express a desire to quit their jobs, suggesting that STS may be a predictor of staff turnover (Sung, Seo, & Kim, 2012). In a survey of 650 oncology nurses in China, 37% working on inpatient oncology units were at risk for STS (Yu, Jiang, & Shen, 2016). A challenge facing oncology nurses is a blurring of the line between professional and personal domains.…”

Aim The aim of this study was to explore secondary traumatic stress experiences of nurses caring for cancer patients. Methods A qualitative descriptive approach was taken in the study. The team conducted semi‐structured in‐depth interviews with 13 oncology nurses. We evaluated the responses collected using content analysis. Results Three distinct themes emerged from the interviews: cycle of desperation, coping, and change. Conclusion Based on the results obtained, it is suggested that programs containing cognitive restructuring techniques be developed; peer support groups may enable senior nurses to guide inexperienced nurses.
