Abstract：
Objective To investigate the status of occupational well-being of nurses in the Green Nursing Outpatient Department of a certain Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) hospital in Beijing. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted on 59 nurses attending the TCM Green Nursing Clinic using the Medical Staff Occupational Well-Being Scale, and the data were analyzed. Results The total score of occupational well-being of nurses was (101.17±15.48), with five dimensional entries of social support (22.19±3.03), value/competence embodiment (26.41±3.63), work environment (14.81±3.02), economic income (10.05±2.84), physical and mental health (27.71±2.96), and the mean score of total entries (4.22±0.65) points, which was at a high level. Conclusion The nurses working in TCM Green nursing clinic were physically and mentally healthy, had a high degree of team working, and had a sense of achievement in work. They believed that lower sense of well-being was associated with the working environment and economic income. The high degree of occupational well-being of nurses is potentially effective to reduce nurse job burnout and increase the investment in outpatient work. It is suggested that TCM hospital managers should provide nurses with a platform to cultivate TCM nursing professional teams in outpatient clinics to solve practical problems and improve nurses'' occupational well-being.
