- Abstract
Objective: This study was carried out as a descriptive study to evaluate the level of collaboration between nurses, the level of work stress and the factors affecting it in nurses working in a university hospital. Materials Methods: A sample of the study was composed of nurses working at a university hospital who wanted to participate in the study. The research was conducted between June-August 2020. The study was completed with 228 nurses who agreed to participate in the study. Data collection tools of the study were applied via Google form to participants using the “Introductory Information Form”, “Work Stress Scale” and “Nurse-Nurse Collaboration Scale”. Results: The average score of the nurse - nurse collaboration scale was 48.21±9.10; the average score of the work stress scale was 2.54±0.57. In addition, a moderately positive statistically significant association was found between the nurse-nurse collaboration scale score averages and the work stress scale score averages (Pearson correlation: 0.554, p=0.001). Conclusion: Today, with the increase in chronic diseases and the complexity of health care services, work and team cooperation have become important issues in the areas where health care services are provided. Excess work and lack of team collaboration are factors affecting both employee and patient satisfaction. Empowering nurses in the management of work stress and increasing cooperation between nurses; It is thought that it will help to manage the difficulties experienced in this regard more effectively.
