The research examined how continuing medical education affects healthcare workers’ job performance. Nurses’ perspectives on continuing formal education were investigated using a quantitative method, and the influence of work and continuing medical education on job performance experienced by (health professionals) practicing nurses. The study also explored how the transactional stress model negatively impacts health professionals who combine work and schooling without official approval. The findings indicate that health professionals who continue education without approval are less likely to improvise available logistics than their colleagues who continue medical education with approval.
