eing a nurse is amongst one of the toughest professions. It is a profession in which the nurse will be in contact with different kinds of stress factors. There are often encounters with death, suffering, as well as dying and terminally ill patients. Nurses must be able to communicate with patients who react differently to illness and hospitalization and those patients who can even cause conflicts. In addition to the direct workloads regarding this range of problems there are also bad relationships in the workplace and difficulties in everyday life. There is also the need for continuous training and learning of new skills. The influence of all these factors can lead the nurse into difficult situations in life - such as excessive stress. The aim of this research was to determine stress factors that influence the work of nurses in outpatient and inpatient wards.
