Summary
According to the latest Gallup Poll, nurses have reinforced their status as the most trusted profession in the U.S., with 78% of adults rating them highly for honesty and ethics, a significant increase over previous years and highlighting a widening gap from other professions like grade-school teachers at 61%. Meanwhile, physicians have dropped to fifth place in trust rankings, with only 53% rating them positively, marking a notable decline in public perception. Despite the high trust in nursing, the profession faces challenges such as increased burnout and job dissatisfaction among those in direct patient care, with over half of nurses reporting symptoms of these issues according to McKinsey's research.
