Three hundred eighteen Registered Nurses completed a web-based survey at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center in the United States. Mediation analyses were conducted to test hypothesized relationships.Results
Nurses with higher levels of compassion satisfaction reported lower levels of sleep disturbance and better physical/mental health.
