Several factors can contribute to increased fatigue among nurses:
Long Work Hours: Extended shifts and mandatory overtime can lead to physical and mental exhaustion. High Patient Load: Managing a large number of patients increases stress and workload. Emotional Stress: Dealing with critically ill patients and their families can be emotionally draining. Shift Work: Irregular working hours and night shifts disrupt the body's natural circadian rhythms. Insufficient Rest: Inadequate sleep can exacerbate fatigue and impair cognitive function.
