Answer to Question 2

Work stress for nurses happens with work overload, heavy physical work, shift work, patient concerns (dealing with death and medical treatment), and interpersonal problems with other health care professionals and staff. Adjusting to chronic illness can result in situational stress, but is not work related. Furthermore, the stress experienced while caring for someone with a chronic illness (such as Alzheimer's disease) can lead to adverse health consequences but is also not work related. Another nonwork-related stressor would be caring for a family member who has cancer. Those family members caring for cancer patients have been shown to display immunologic changes that can contribute to the development of inflammatory disease.
