According to the “Beyond the Bedside: The State of Nursing in 2025” report, 65% of nurses say they’re experiencing high levels of stress and burnout. The study also found that only 60% of nurses would choose their profession again, and 67% of student nurses are concerned about managing their workload. Short staffing, inadequate pay, lack of leadership support, and patient abuse are listed as the top stressors. On Tuesday’s “Closer Look,” Host Rose Scott speaks with Dr. Lisa Herbert, Obstetrician-Gynecologist Dr. Kristin Oates and Primary Care Physician Dhaval Desai about their personal experience with stress and burnout, how it can impact patients, plus solutions for the wellbeing of patients and the medical workers who care for them.
