概要 To describe the experience of nurses during hospital restructuring and to evaluate the psychosocial effects of organizational change in Japanese hospitals, we interviewed nurses working in a hospital that was scheduled for closure and replacement by an academic hospital. Even though nurses felt anxious soon after learning about the hospital closure, they decided their course of action while reconsidering their jobs, working conditions, and expectations of family members. Providing information and opportunities to learn about nursing career paths is essential in preparing for hospital restructuring. During the transition period, units merged, and nurses were required to carry out extra tasks, which caused disarray within the units. Having supervisor support in accomplishing the extra tasks also promoted confidence and had a positive effect on teamwork. Hospital restructuring offered opportunities for nurses to reconsider their career paths.
