Summary: This study examined the job demands-resources profiles of emergency nurses and their impact on work capabilities, job performance, and intention to leave. Results revealed four profiles: demanding job, resourceful job, rich job, and poor job. Having a rich job and not having a poor job significantly influenced emergency nurses' capabilities and work performance. A resourceful job and two specific work capabilities were associated with job performance. Poor and demanding jobs predicted nurses' intentions to leave. Rich and resourceful jobs were associated with multiple work capabilities, while autonomy, career progress, and supervisor relationships impacted most work capabilities of emergency nurses.
