Study objective was to explore the Nurses perception on over responsibilitiesMethod: Qualitative approach was adopted for the study to explore. A semi structured interview guide was established. The reliability of the research was ensured through verbatim records of the study's respondents' interviews. The instruction was tested on two nurses and modified as a result. Nurses working as staff nurses in Multi-specialty hospitals were targeted for data collection. Purposive sampling approaches were used to recruit respondents until the topics were saturated. Probing questions were posed, and participants were given the opportunity to voice their further thoughts and opinions. The first author went over the transcripts line by line, reading them again and thematically analysing their contents. The study's co-authors confirmed the developing themes and contents.Findings Three themes were emerged viz ; Quality of life, Mistake in decision making aand burnout. Conclusion :Nurses engaged in nursing care felt that they are unable to offer focused quality nursing care owing to overburdening, and that record keeping is also hampered.
