Did you know that while only 10% of professionals across industries report experiencing disruptive behavior in the workplace, healthcare professionals report rates that are three times higher? In fact, horizontal violence — also known as lateral violence or workplace bullying — is alarmingly prevalent in nurse-to-nurse interactions, with estimates suggesting that between 46% and 100% of nurses experience or witness this behavior at some point in their careers.

The nursing crisis plaguing the medical field isn’t a new challenge, but it’s reaching a breaking point. Increasing demand, an aging workforce and educational bottlenecks have created a perfect storm of high stress and low morale among nurses.

Introduction In 2016, Maryland became one of the first states to implement a Healthcare Preceptor Tax Credit. The aim of this legislation was to help alleviate healthcare workforce shortages in the State, and it provided a tax incentive to nurse practitioner student preceptors. In 2022, legislation was passed to expand this benefit to registered nurses (RN) and licensed practical nurse (LPN) student preceptors.

An estimated 1.1 billion women worldwide will have experienced menopause by 2025. Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, and anxiety can be incredibly disruptive — and last for years. But despite its massive impact, little is being done to support those going through menopause in the workplace. In a recent survey, 70% of respondents said they have considered changing their employment to better manage symptoms — perhaps because only 8% received significant support from their employer related to meno

Employee expectations around benefits and workplace support have evolved in step with the growing need for fertility and family-forming care.

The medical setting from hospitals to clinics can be an emotionally charged one, which means nurses can be placed in volatile situations when dealing with upset or confused patients and their family members. Just about every nursing setting can experience aggression in one form or another. Trauma, pain, fear, and confusion can cause patients and their family members to become agitated and combative.

There is a growing recognition of the need to include children and young people (CYP) in health research. Increasingly, funding bodies emphasise early engagement with those with lived experience, and to recruit participants who represent the diversity of the remit of the study. People with life-limiting conditions are typically under-represented in research because of their perceived vulnerability and as such, key voices are not represented in the research on which practice is based.

Nurse burnout was studied for years before COVID-19, and the pandemic brought nurse burnout to the public eye. Burnout is associated with workload and lack of support that nurses experience in critical care areas such as ICUs (Buckley et al., 2019, Forsyth et al., 2021). High rates of burnout, work-related stress, and compassion fatigue are also related to unsafe staff-patient ratios and feelings of being overworked when the units are understaffed.
