Beyond order-based nursing workload: a retrospective cohort study in intensive care units.
Research comparing order-based versus clinically perceived nursing workloads in intensive care units revealed that order-based measurements often underestimate actual nursing burden. The study found that over half of cases showed higher clinically perceived workload than indicated by orders alone. Several factors contributed to increased workload perception, including weekend and night shifts, higher patient census, newly admitted patients, and male patients. The findings suggest the need for more comprehensive workload assessment methods.

Emergency nurses' reasons for not recommending their hospital to clinicians as a good place to work.
The objective of this qualitative study was to examine why emergency nurses do not recommend their hospital to other clinicians as a good place to work. Open-text responses to the RN4CAST-NY/IL survey from registered nurses licensed in New York and Illinois were analyzed. Nurses did not recommend their workplace as a good place to work because of poor staffing, nonresponsive hospital leadership, unsafe work conditions, workplace violence, and a lack of feeling valued.

Missed care relates to nurse job enjoyment and intention to leave in neonatal intensive care.
Being unable to provide required nursing care to infants could contribute to poorer neonatal nurse job outcomes, which may exacerbate staffing challenges. Little evidence exists about how missed nursing care relates to neonatal nurse job outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine relationships among missed nursing care, job enjoyment and intention to leave for neonatal nurses.
