Research progress on the assessment tools and support programs of nurses as second victims

Abstract

Abstract:

Medical adverse events not only cause harm to patients and their families，but also have a negative impact on the healthcare professionals involved，turning them into secondary victims. This severely affects nurses' physical and mental health，as well as their careers，and can even impact the stability of nursing teams. While there is considerable research on secondary victims abroad，the relevant studies in China are still in their infancy. Therefore，this article reviews the support items related to the nurse secondary victim assessment tool，providing a reference for nursing managers to timely identify secondary victims，improve secondary victim syndrome，and establish effective support programs.

Key words: Nurses, Second victim, Assessment tools, Support programs, Research progress
