NPs: Does Your Job Fulfill Your Expectations?
To measure how satisfied you are with your work, we surveyed more than 1,300 clinicians like you. Compare your experiences to those of your colleagues, starting with the key question: Would you do it again?
Echoing the survey results—which ranked “Making a difference and providing significant help” as the topmost source of job satisfaction—one of your colleagues commented that, “Ability to offer meaningful support to client needs” affected their satisfaction. On the other hand, though, one clinician wrote, “I feel like we are losing the art of caring and healing because we are rushed/pushed to do and see more.”
Compared to last year, the changes in response are
,2% increase: Making a difference and providing significant help
3% increase: Respect received from patients and their families
No change: Relationships with your colleagues
3% increase: Quality and duration of patient relationships
