CHICAGO , April 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) unveiled its research, titled "Examining the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Burnout & Stress Among U.S. Nurses," in a panel titled "Nursing at the Crossroads: A Call to Action" in Washington, D.C. at the National Press Club at 9:30 a.m. EST.

Key Points: 
  • For the first time, the research findings reveal how the nursing workforce was impacted by the pandemic and how many left the workforce in this period, and forecast how many nurses in the U.S. have an intent to leave the workforce.
  • The research also examined the personal and professional characteristics of nurses experiencing heightened workplace burnout and stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • The research was gathered as part of a biennial nursing workforce study conducted by NCSBN and the National Forum of State Nursing Workforce Centers.
  • Coupled with large declines among nursing support staff, NCSBN calls for significant action to foster a more resilient and safe U.S. nursing workforce moving forward.
