Nurse wellbeing – have your say!

A study that aims to develop a Core Outcome Set for nurse wellbeing has been launched. This is a minimum set of outcomes that can be used every-time nurse wellbeing is measured for research and for national and local surveys. A core outcome set will reduce survey fatigue by ensuring evidence-based outcomes, important to nurses are used, whenever nurse wellbeing is measured. A core outcome set for nurse wellbeing will allow comparable evidence about the workforce and system resources nurses need to feel good and meet their full potential. This provides evidence for organisations and the government about what really works for nurse wellbeing.
