Sumario: | The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 on perceived stress experienced by nurse practitioners/nurses and their desire to remain employed as health care providers. A cross-sectional survey of 40 questions was administered between May and September 2020 to a convenience sample of 433 nurse practitioners and nurses in Missouri and Georgia through a Qualtrics (Provo, UT) link provided via their professional organization listserv. Anxiety-related symptoms and perceived helplessness were correlated with personal protective equipment concerns and management approachability. Problematic stress was associated with willingness to leave their current job or the nursing profession altogether. |
