ResumoPediatric oncology nurses are at an increased risk for developing compassion fatigue related to lengthy relationships with patients and families, ethical dilemmas in clinical care, and active participation in grief and bereavement (Zander, Hutton, & King, 2010). Compassion fatigue has been described as an acute loss of emotional and physical energy toward the self and work, with a hindered ability to provide compassionate care for patients experiencing suffering (Figley, 2002).
