Latent profile analysis of mental workload among emergency department nurses: a cross-sectional study

The study suggested that mental workload among emergency department nurses is widespread in China. Nursing managers should provide targeted interventions based on the mental workload profiles of emergency department nurses. It is also crucial to enhance support from family and friends for emergency department nurses in their professional endeavors. This support should facilitate the adoption of positive coping styles to effectively address challenges. Tailored interventions, based on individual personality traits, should be implemented to reduce mental workload and promote the growth of the emergency department nursing team.
