Flexible Scheduling: Offering more flexible scheduling options can help nurses balance their work and personal lives. Health and Wellness Programs: Providing access to wellness programs can promote physical and mental health. Adequate Staffing: Ensuring adequate staffing levels can reduce the workload and stress for individual nurses. Supportive Work Environment: Creating a supportive and understanding work environment can make a significant difference.
