Pediatric Oncology Nurses' Mental Health

Mental health is an under researched and overlooked issue in the nursing profession. This issue keeps increasing as there are less resources available, a higher demand for nurses, and a decreased well-being of self. Through this research, we answered the PICO question “In pediatric oncology nurses, how does mental health with coping mechanisms affect nurses leaving the specialty?” We conducted this research through statistical analyses of meta-analyses, randomized studies, correlational studies, and literature reviews. Overall, coping mechanisms decreased the susceptibility of nurses leaving the specialty due to mental health issues.
