Stepping up: exploring health coachings impact on nurse wellness and long-term physical activity

Commentary on: Nerek, A, Wesołowska-Górniak, K, & Czarkowska-Paczek, B (2024). Enhancing feedback by health coaching: the effectiveness of mixed methods approach to long-term physical activity changes in nurses. An intervention study. BMC nursing, 23(1), 196. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12912-024-01815-1

Implications for practice and research

  • Tailoring interventions for individual motivations and workplace challenges is crucial for promoting physical activity among nurses and improving their well-being.

  • Future research should explore the long-term effectiveness and broader health outcomes of mixed-methods interventions, guiding evidence-based strategies in healthcare practice.

  • Context

    Despite the benefits of regular physical activity, many nurses have low activity levels, leading to higher risks of chronic diseases and absenteeism. Over 30% of nurses are overweight or obese, often due to stressful work conditions and night shifts, increasing the risk of metabolic disorders.1 2 Nurses also have the lowest participation in workplace health programmes,...

    Examining the role of self-efficacy, emotional intelligence and conflict management styles as protective resources against stress among student nurses

    Commentary on: Michinov E, Robin G, Hémon B, Béranger R, Boissart M. Protective resources against stress among student nurses: influences of self-efficacy, emotional intelligence and conflict management styles. Nurse Educ Pract. 2024 Jan;74:103849. doi: 10.1016/j.nepr.2023.103849. Epub 2023 Nov 22.

    Implications for practice and research

  • Educational programmes should include simulations and role playing to enhance student nurses’ self-efficacy and reduce stress.

  • Integrating emotional intelligence training into nursing education aids students in managing emotional demands.

  • Future research should focus on longitudinal studies to uncover causal relationships among factors.

  • Context

    Clinical practice training introduces stress to student nurses due to potential conflicts with patients, families and supervisors.1 Grounded in work stress models, the study recognises the significance of contextual (social supports) and personal resources (eg, optimism, resilience, self-efficacy and emotional intelligence (EI)) for stress reduction among student nurses in adapting to work demands.
