Variability in shift-work satisfaction was noted between individual nurses in day (ICC = 0.43) and night shifts (ICC = 0.37), but not between medical/surgical units. Nurses satisfied with their shift-specific work were less probably to ration necessary nursing care (OR = 0.68; 95% CI = 0.60-0.77) in day shifts and to perceive high workload demands in both, day (OR = 0.29; 95% CI = 0.23-0.37) and night (OR = 0.29; 95% CI = 0.18-0.47) shifts. Monitoring and lowering workload demands while observing rationing of care is necessary to improve nurses' shift-work satisfaction.
