Article Synopsis
  • The study examines how ethical value conflicts (EVC) in nursing can lead to moral distress, affecting nurses' health, job retention, and patient care quality.
  • It involved a two-part survey of registered nurses across multiple hospitals in Sweden, analyzing both immediate and long-term impacts of EVC on aspects like stress and burnout.
  • Findings suggest that frequent EVC from inadequate resources and poor organizational structure contributes significantly to stress and can worsen team effectiveness and overall care quality in healthcare settings.
