Objective To explore the impact of incorporating mindfulness culture into nursing management on the occupational stress of emergency department nurses. Methods Sixty nursing staff who worked in the emergency department of Xiangxi People's Hospital from January 2025 to September 2025 were selected. The mindfulness culture management model was integrated into the daily work of emergency nursing, and the principle of voluntary participation was adopted. Before the experiment, a nurse occupational stress questionnaire was used to investigate the occupational stress situation as the research baseline. Then, mindfulness culture training was carried out, and the effects before and after the experiment were compared and analyzed using SPSS 25.0 statistical software. Results After receiving mindfulness culture training, the scores of the Nurse Occupational Stress Source Scale and Stress Response Scale (PSS) were significantly lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05); The self-management score of nurses’ stress was significantly improved after the intervention, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of mindfulness culture in nursing management by emergency department nurses can significantly improve their ability to self manage stress, thereby effectively reducing occupational stress, enhancing professional well-being, and improving nursing quality.
