Something changed with the Covid-19 pandemic,

That change is among the many captured in the 2023 Survey of Registered Nurses from AMN Healthcare, a nurse staffing company.

The biannual survey of 18,000 nurses, published Monday, points to what AMN Chief Clinical Officer, Dr. Cole Edmonson called a “perfect storm.”

Problems for the profession could leave the US health care industry without the nurses it needs.

The survey, which was conducted in January, shows a group of professionals who care very much about their work.

But it also shows a significant decline in work satisfaction and an increase in stress levels.

Many are thinking about leaving the profession.

“A crisis in nursing is upon us,” Edmonson says in the survey.
