Understanding the complexity of working under time pressure in oncology nursing: a grounded theory study

The international nursing shortage has implications for the quality and safety of patient care. Various studies report that nurses do not have time to complete all necessary nursing care tasks, potentially resulting in nurse-perceived time pressure. Providing good care in the current nursing environment often poses a real ethical challenge for nurses. How nurses experience caring for cancer patients under time pressure and how they deal with the limited time available in achieving an ethical nursing practice remains unclear.
