This presentation addresses the critical issue of nursing burnout, focusing on its impact on patient safety and the creation of a healthy work environment. It highlights that nursing burnout is a syndrome characterized by depersonalization and reduced personal accomplishment, often stemming from long hours, high-stress environments, and inadequate support. The presentation emphasizes the high prevalence of burnout among nurses and its significant contribution to nurses leaving the profession, which subsequently affects patient safety and increases clinical errors. Objectives include fostering healthy work environments, raising awareness about nursing burnout, and educating staff on prevention strategies. The presentation also identifies key causes of burnout, such as long shifts, high stress, and low pay, and concludes by advocating for interventions like reduced nurse-patient ratios and enhanced coping mechanisms to mitigate burnout and improve both nurse well-being and patient outcomes. The presentation references multiple studies that highlight various aspects of nurse burnout and potential intervention strategies.
