The top two service requirements were: "Relief of work pressure" and "mental health consultation", and hope to receive mixed-mode EAP services; in ICU and CCU, nurses hope EAP can help resolve work-family conflicts; in EICU, they need to provide Specific job skills training services.Conclusions:ICU nurses have insufficient cognition of EAP and urgently need to obtain EAP implementation knowledge; at the same time, it is necessary to formulate an implementation plan that meets ICU nurses′ needs for EAP, that is, to relieve work pressure and carry out psychological counseling to ensure that EAP is launch successfully in ICU nurses.
