Abstract
In any healthcare context, nurses are expected to provide patients with excellent care, and they are seen as a vital component of the medical workforce. To conduct the empirical investigation to assess the stress anxiety and depression among nurses working at a tertiary care hospital in Lahore. This study was a cross-sectional study conducted in the Jinnah Hospital Lahore. Data were gathered using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale 21 (DASS-21), which was self-completed. The data was entered and examined using SPSS version 24.0. In the current study, most of the nurses (34.66%) had moderate and 45 nurses (30%) had severe depression. Based on the distribution of stress, 75 nurses (or 50%) had mild anxiety, and 40 nurses (or 26.66%) had moderate anxiety. Neglecting these mental health disorders may hurt the performance of the nursing staff, which could affect the standard of patient care.
