Low motivation among nurses can lead to several adverse outcomes, including:
Burnout: Chronic stress and lack of motivation can lead to severe burnout, affecting both personal well-being and professional performance. High Turnover Rates: Unmotivated nurses are more likely to leave their positions, leading to staffing shortages and increased hiring costs. Poor Patient Care: Low motivation can result in decreased attention to detail, lower quality of care, and higher rates of medical errors. Decreased Job Satisfaction: A lack of motivation can make the work environment less enjoyable and fulfilling.
