Abstrakt: Introduction: The change process generally elicits reactions not always positive, although expected.
Aim: To describe the reactions to change before and after one year from implementation.
Methods: A questionnaire was administered to a group of nurses before and after their wards was moved to a new surgical department with a totally different organization.
Results: The nurses remained moderately worried before and after the change. Worries for the impact of the change on the patients and themselves significantly increased. Nurses with 4-14 years of experience expressed higher levels of concern.
Conclusions: The worries are a normal reaction but their better understanding may give indications on support strategies.
