Subjective workload, professional environment and job satisfaction of anesthesia and intensive care nurses: a cross-sectional survey study

There is a relationship between anesthesia and intensive care nurses' workload, professional environment and job satisfaction, regardless of geographical boundaries or different locations, the structure of the healthcare system, and these factors constantly affect each other. Subjective workload, work environment, and job satisfaction of anesthesia and intensive care nurses are interrelated and influence each other. Nurses who work in an unfavorable environment without managerial support, collaboration, and teamwork experience higher workload and lower job satisfaction. This means that job satisfaction decreases when there is a high workload and an unfavorable work environment.
