Our study highlighted nurses' experiences with facilitators and barriers to their work-related health. Nurses' work-related health was positively affected by support from colleagues, managers, and the organization. Conversely, less support from managers, lack of equipment, and unfair judgment were barriers to nurses' work-related health. This study adds new knowledge about nurses' work-related health from the context of Nepal. Hospital organizations and nursing managers in similar cultural and healthcare settings can apply the results of our study to develop strategies to promote and sustain nurses' health and prevent work-related illness.
