Nursing is an incredibly difficult profession.

Nurses face new challenges, including high stress emergency situations, workplace violence incidents, and death, on a daily basis with patients and families. All of those events can take a major toll on a nurse's mental health, which can lead to more serious problems.

September is Suicide Prevention Month, and CNOs need to be aware of the risks and warning signs among their workforce and provide mental health resources and programs.

In this week's lead story, learn more about how nurse leaders can help prevent nurse suicides.
