Nurses play a big role in cancer care. They need to make quick, smart decisions. But what helps them do this well? Two big things stand out:

  • Emotional Intelligence (EI)
  • Work Environment

Emotional Intelligence in Nursing

Emotional intelligence, or EI, is about understanding and managing feelings. Nurses with high EI can:

  • Stay calm under pressure
  • Connect better with patients

This makes a big difference in cancer care.

The Importance of Work Environment

A good organizational culture supports nurses. It provides:

  • The tools they need
  • Teamwork and collaboration

When nurses feel supported, they make better decisions.

The Research Gap

Not enough research has looked at how EI and work culture affect cancer nurses. This study aimed to fill that gap by providing clear proof to improve nursing education.

The Goal

The ultimate goal is to help nurses make even better decisions. By focusing on emotions and work culture, hospitals can improve cancer care. It's a win-win for nurses and patients.
