Emotional Intelligence in Nursing

Emotional Intelligence in nursing practice is important because, more often than not, nurses interact with patients and families who have challenging situations and conditions. Nurses need to understand that they are encountering patients and families in a state of emotional distress. The nurse also needs to be aware of their emotional state and how that can impact their interactions with patients, families, and other members of the care team.
