Abstract

This guideline addresses the many factors that contribute to nurses' health, safety and well-being and makes specific recommendations that may influence the overall health and well-being of the individual nurse. This guideline also goes beyond global recommendations - such as developing broad-based strategies for nursing recruitment and retention - and includes recommendations specific to organizations, nursing education programs, researchers and, at the systems level, accrediting organizations.
