Several factors influence risk tolerance, including:
1. Experience and Training: More experienced nurses might have a higher tolerance for risk due to their extensive knowledge and skills. 2. Patient Condition: Critical or unstable patients may necessitate higher risk interventions. 3. Available Resources: Limited resources can either increase risk tolerance out of necessity or decrease it due to the inability to manage potential complications. 4. Organizational Culture: Institutions with a culture of safety typically have a lower risk tolerance.
