Results: The results show staff shortages reported in 53,8%, psycho-emotional exhaustion among nurses in 64% and stress at work in (64,1%). More than one-third of respondents are reporting for a lacking willingness to work. Occupational exhaustion is presented as psycho-emotional exhaustion, accompanied by low professional motivation and dissatisfaction.
