A flight transport nurse has been experiencing signs of chronic stress, such as fatigue, irritability, and difficulty concentrating, which could impact their ability to perform effectively during transport missions. Which of the following strategies should the nurse implement first to help manage and reduce stress in order to maintain a healthy work environment?
Using stress-relief tools, such as stress balls, during shifts
Participating in regular debriefing sessions to discuss stressors and receive support
The correct answer is ensuring regular debriefing sessions, as these provide opportunities to discuss stressors, receive feedback, and gain support from peers and supervisors. This can significantly reduce feelings of isolation and help identify practical ways to handle stress. Other strategies like engaging in exercise, meditation, and using stress-relief tools are also useful, but debriefing sessions directly target workplace-related stressors and provide immediate peer support.
