• Resumen

  • Stress in nurses is one of the most common problems today that hinders the provision of quality care. Therefore, the objective of this research is to determine the level of stress in nursing professionals working in a hospital in Callao. This is a quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional study, with a total population of 200 nurses who answered a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Nursing Stress Scale. The results showed that 91 (n=45.5%) had low stress, 88 (n=44%) had medium stress, and 21 (n=10.5%) had high stress. In conclusion, strategies should be sought to develop coping tools to combat stress within the workday.
