Abstract: Highlights the importance of prioritising self-care for palliative care nurses whose prolonged exposure to work-related stress may result in burn-out. Recommends a self-care plan that addresses individual strengths and challenges, including physical, emotional, cognitive, relational and spiritual. Suggests the use of self-care strategies, such as the identification of professional and personal strengths, and the application of mindfulness and stress-reduction techniques to improve self-awareness.
