- Abstract: Aim: To investigate the emotions associated with environmental activism among nurses. Background: Nursing has a long history of political activism in relation to social justice issues. Some nurses are environmental activists. Design: Ethnography. Methods: Focus groups and individual interviews were triangulated with additional observational data. The 40 participants (USA = 23, UK = 17) were nurses actively engaged with environmental/sustainability issues. Data collection was from March–October 2017. Data were analysed using discourse analysis. Results: The trigger for nurses' environmental activism was a strong emotional response to recognizing risks to human health. Their activism results in an additional emotion burden above which they routinely experience in caring for patients. Many feel over‐whelmed by the magnitude of the issues. Nurses in America feel more supported and empowered to be activists than UK nurses. Conclusion: This study reveals for the first time that advocating for the environment is emotional labour, additional to the previously recognized emotional labour associated with caring for patients. Encouragement and support from others, particularly fellow nurses, helps nurse environmental activists continue to fight for the health of communities and the planet. Impact: Outrage at threats to human health triggers nurses' environmental activism. Environmental activism creates an additional emotional burden above that routinely experienced in caring for patients. Nurses in America feel more supported and empowered to be activists than UK. Nurses whose practice embraces environmental activism need practical and emotional support from other nurses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
- Abstract: 目的: 研究护士的与环保运动相关的情绪。: 背景: 在社会公平性问题方面,护理人员长期以来一直积极参与相关的政治活动。一些护士同时也是环保活动人士。 设计: 人种学。 方法: 对焦点团体和个人访谈情况进行三角分析,并采用额外的观测数据。40名参与者(美国23名,英国17名)是积极参与环境/可持续发展问题活动的护士。数据收集工作于2017年3月至10月进行。同时采用话语分析方式对数据进行了分析。 结果: 护士环保行动的触发点在于其认识到人类健康风险后的强烈情绪反应。其行动会导致额外的情绪负担,除此之外他们还需承担照顾病人。他们中的许多人难以承受如此多的问题。同英国护士相比,美国护士觉得其会得到更多的支持,更有能力成为活动人士。 结论: 本项研究首次表明,除了先前公认的照顾病人相关情绪劳动之外,倡导环保运动也是一种情绪劳动。来自其他人的的鼓励和支持,尤其是同事,可帮助护士环保活动人士继续为社区和地球人民的健康而战斗。 影响: 因人类健康威胁而产生的愤怒成为护士环保行动的导火索。而环保行动也造成了额外的情绪负担,除此之外他们还需承担照顾病人。与英国相比,美国护士觉得其会得到更多的支持,更有能力成为活动人士。因此,参与环保行动的护士需要其他护士的实际和情感支持。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
