Influence of Job Burnout on Decision-Making and Coping With Stress Among Nurses

Job burnout is highly prevalent among health care workers. This study determined the effect of job burnout on decision-making and coping with stress among nurses. Two hundred seventy-seven nurses in Xijing Hospital were investigated using the Job Burnout Scale, Decision Scale, and Simple Stress Coping Style Scale. The total score of job burnout was 107.8 ± 16.479 (severe burnout) and clinical decision-making consciousness was 123.75 ± 16.094 (moderate decision-making consciousness). No statistical differences existed in different gender samples (P > .05). Burnout and clinical decision-making awareness of clinical nurses were stronger than nursing interns and regular trainee nurses, but the occupational pressure of nursing interns was the highest (P < .05). Marital status also showed significant differences in job burnout; unmarried nurses were more prone to burnout (P < .05). In conclusions, burnout is a serious issue among nurses, which is closely related with clinical decision-making awareness, negative coping, and occupational stress. Nurse identity and marital status had significant effects on burnout.

Development of a nurse-manager dualistic intervention program to alleviate burnout among nurses based on the appreciative inquiry

Aims

To develop a feasible and effective nurse-manager dualistic intervention program to support nurses coping with burnout symptoms.

Background

Person-organization combined interventions were recommended as the most effective approach for reducing burnout symptoms. However, few interventions have been developed in the nursing field.

Methods

The Medical Research Council, United Kingdom (MRC UK), Framework for Development and Evaluation of Complex Interventions, was employed for nurse-manager dualistic intervention program development. The following three steps were followed for developing the dualistic intervention program: (1) identifying the evidence base by conducting extensive reviews of the relevant literature and a mixed study; (2) identifying/developing a theory by selecting the job demands-resources model and proposing the theoretical framework for intervention development; and (3) modifying the process and outcomes of the nurse-manager dualistic intervention program.

Results

The intervention program consists of six group sessions over 9 weeks. Researchers/managers are supposed to deliver the program. The main contents of the intervention are (1) inception (session 1); (2) discovery (session 2); (3) dream (session 3); (4) design (session 4); (5) destiny (session 5); and (6) keep (session 6). The emphasis of the intervention is on helping nurses dealing with burnout symptoms.

Conclusion

Following the guidance of the MRC framework, a feasible and potentially effective nurse-manager dualistic intervention program was developed for nurses coping with burnout. Future studies are needed to model the intervention and assess the effects and replicability of the intervention.
