Aim: The aims of this research were to examine the attitudes and experiences of nurses in situations where there is a lack of supplies, their managing of such situations; whether the lack of supplies affects patient care in any way, whether experience plays a role in managing the situation; and to compare the results from two clinics where the research was conducted. Design: Cross-sectional study. Participants and Methods: The research involved nurses and technicians from Surgery Clinic (Klinika za kirurgiju) and Internal Disease Clinic (Klinika za unutarnje bolesti) at Clinical Hospital Centre Osijek (Klinički bolnički centar Osijek). The research was conducted via an anonymous questionnaire, which the participants completed independently, and it consisted of general information about the participant’s age, work position and experience, questions about the supplies and statements which the participants rated according to their experience and knowledge. Results: The data collected from sixty nurses/technicians at Clinical Hospital Centre were processed. The results show the same attitudes of participants towards supplies, regardless of experience and the clinic where they work. Participants from Surgery Clinic engage more in the process of ordering of supplies, as well as participants with up to five years of work experience or more that fifteen years. They are more likely to address their superior regarding lack of supplies. Participants with more than ten years of work experience use significantly more supplies. Conclusion: Regardless of the difficult situation in healthcare, the lack of supplies evident in Surgery Clinic and Internal Disease Clinic is not high and it does not affect the maintaining of patient care.
