Workplace Burnout in Nursing and Mitigation Strategies

Abstract

Workplace burnout among nurses is a growing concern, significantly impacting healthcare delivery, staff retention, and patient outcomes. Characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a reduced sense of personal accomplishment, burnout arises from high workloads, extended hours, and emotional strain inherent in nursing roles. This article examines the causes, consequences, and mitigation strategies for workplace burnout in nursing. Evidence- based interventions, including organizational support, stress management programs, and self-care practices, are discussed as essential measures to prevent and reduce burnout. By addressing these factors, healthcare institutions can foster a resilient nursing workforce capable of delivering high-quality patient care.
