Session on Addressing mental health in the nursing profession

Addressing mental health in the nursing profession is critical for promoting the well-being of nurses and their ability to provide high-quality care to patients. Nurses often experience high levels of stress and burnout, which can have significant impacts on their mental health. Healthcare organizations can address mental health in the nursing profession by providing resources and support for nurses, such as counseling services, mental health awareness training, and self-care programs. Additionally, reducing workloads and improving working conditions can also help to mitigate the negative impacts of stress and burnout on nurses' mental health. By addressing mental health in the nursing profession, healthcare organizations can promote a healthy and resilient workforce and ultimately improve patient outcomes.
