Abstract

The aggressive, curative ICU setting may compromise patient-centred nursing (PCN). ICU nurses are expected to employ clinical expertise and compassionate nursing care; they are at high risk of anxiety and fatigue. Compassion-satisfaction and compassion-fatigue influence nurses’ intention to leave; workforce turnover is high.
