“…Godwin et al [16] used 73 nurses from one hospital while this study used 267 NMs from 38 hospitals across Ghana. However, the finding that marital status and religious affiliation significantly predict stress is consistent with an Iranian study by Tahereh, Mohammad-Kazem, and Zahra [33] whose study established that marital status and religion significantly decrease stress among NMs. It has been established that married workers draw psychological and emotional support from their spouses which aid reduce work-related stress.…”

Background: The role of Nurse Managers (NMs) is dynamic, multifaceted and complex thus, exposing NMs to high levels of work-related stress which seriously impact general wellbeing, and organizational outcomes.Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional approach was employed to examine the phenomenon of stress among NMs in 38 selected hospitals. Census approach was used to collect data from 267 NMs. Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed to describe the sample and established the predictors of stress.Results: The main causes of stress among NMs are a shortage of staff (94.4%), poor working conditions (91.8%), inadequate management support (89.9%) and heavy workload (89.15%). NMs experienced all the types of stress (psychological, emotional and physical). The major stress coping mechanisms are time management (91.8%), effective communication (91%) and delegation of duties (89.5%) while excessive eating (18.4%) is the least strategy used. Sociodemographic characteristics together explained 6.4% of stress among NMs [R2 = .064, F(6,241) = 2.676, p = .016].Conclusions: Senior managers of hospitals should create a favourable working environment for nurses and the appointment of NMs should be based on experience and competence. Implication for Nursing Practice: Stress among healthcare managers especially, NMs is very common. This current study has extensively proven that stress among NMs affects their general health as well as patient safety and quality of care. Training on stress management should be organized regularly for hospital staff particularly, NMs to enable them to cope better with stress.

The present dataset was carried out using meta-analysis method towards investigation of the prevalence of nurses׳ burnout in Iran. To this end, the keywords were searched in the Iranian databases such as Medlib, SID, Iranmedex, Magiran or even some international databases such as Cochrane, Science-Direct, Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar. The data were analysed using the STATA Software Version 12. In ten articles with a sample size of 1758 subjects, an average age of 30.73 (54%) and the confidence interval of 43–64, the prevalence of burnout was reported. The obtained data indicated that Fars and Zanjan Provinces had the highest and lowest rates of burnout (72% and 26%, respectively). According to the acquired data, the total prevalence of burnout among men and women measured 46% and 65%, respectively. Given the high prevalence of burnout among the Iranian nurses in this dataset and the importance of nursing in public health which requires highly motivated and committed nurses with high job satisfaction, it is recommended that the intensity of burnout be reduced through supervising the nurses׳ professional performance, supporting, paying attention to their problems, following up and providing the necessary strategies to improve their environmental, economic, and personal conditions.
