Several factors contribute to burnout in nursing, including:
Heavy Workloads: Nurses often deal with high patient-to-nurse ratios, long shifts, and mandatory overtime. Emotional Strain: Constant exposure to patient suffering, death, and the emotional needs of patients and their families can take a toll. Lack of Support: Insufficient support from management, colleagues, and lack of adequate resources can exacerbate stress. Role Ambiguity: Unclear job roles and expectations can lead to confusion and stress. Work-Life Imbalance: Difficulty in balancing professional responsibilities with personal life can contribute to burnout.
