Additionally, it sought to identify what nurses need to strengthen their team's resilience in adapting to change and how clinical nurse specialists can support these efforts. Background: Persistent changes in healthcare require nursing teams to continuously adapt and develop their practices. However, development and implementation processes are often challenging, stressful, or unsuccessful. This can lead to change fatigue and, when combined with daily workload pressures, high job turnover. Currently, individual resilience is regarded as a key factor in coping with workplace stressors and burdens. Yet, growing critical perspectives emphasise the importance of team resilience, which differs from individual resilience. Despite practice development being mainly a team effort, nursing team resilience remains underexplored in the literature. Study design and methods: This qualitative descriptive study involved 29 registered nurses from two nursing teams at a Swiss paraplegic rehabilitation clinic. Data were collected through eight semi-structured group discussions, and the analysis was conducted using structured qualitative content analysis. Results: The nurses identified four key areas as crucial factors for team resilience in managing change: 1. A lack of knowledge about team resilience and interest in integrating the concept as fundamental resource. 2. Psychological safety within the nurse team and the desire to enhance interprofessional psychological safety, recognised as key factor in team resilience. 3. Readiness to learn. 4. Anticipated burdens. Furthermore, they expressed a need for support from clinical nurse specialists to strengthen team resilience. Conclusion: Team resilience was identified as an unrecognised and neglected concept, yet it was acknowledged as being significant both intra- and interprofessionally for coping with challenges; weak team resilience was considered disadvantageous. Clinical nurse specialists should play a key role in supporting team resilience. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
