Abstract

Nursing is a physically and emotionally demanding profession that can be stressful and overwhelming, yet extremely rewarding. Compassion fatigue, first coined by Joinson (1992) referencing nursing burnout, is the stress resulting from continued exposure to traumatized patients and multidimensional stress; whereas, compassion satisfaction, as described by Phelps et. al (2009) is the positivity of caring for others. Although these two concepts have been studied in numerous nursing populations, such as critical care, emergency department, hospice, and oncology, none have examined these concepts among nursing students.
