Nursing burnout Statistics: Considering the pandemic and post-pandemic time, nursing burnout has become a significant issue in the healthcare industry. We have seen the problems faced by the nurses during the lockdown about they were treated and what kind of exhaustion they faced. But even after 2 years of that event the healthcare industry is still facing the same problem. The major reason behind this problem is the low level of hiring in the nursing segment in healthcare units around the world. These nursing burnout statistics are written with insights from around the globe to understand the severity of the problem. It has included various types of content along with interesting graphics for a better level of understanding. Editor’s Choice In the United States of America, there are around 2.7 million nurses who reported feeling burnout during work in 2022. As of today, Belgium has 60% of the burnout nurses while there are 40% in Uganda. According to Nursing burnout statistics, there are around 81.2% of female nurses and 18.8% of male nurses feel burned out during the sessions of their job. 5% of the nurses in China had suicidal thoughts while 17% of nurses in Australia took mental health support. 6% belonged to the age group of 26 years to 30 years facing the highest number of burned out in all the other age groups. On average today, nursing burnout statistics say that low staffing resulting in 80.19% was the main reason for burnout. 46% and 22% belong to the reasons of ethical dilemmas physical attacks from patients or patients’ families in the United States of America. According to the Nursing burnout statistics, it has been estimated that the world will face a shortage of nurses by the year 2030 resulting in a number of 13 million. As of today, the turnover rate of nurses due to burnout is 27.1%. For every 1% of the turnover in the nursing field, it will cost hospitals around $2,62,300 every year.

BackgroundWorkplace violence is a significant cause of work-related stress in nursing, affecting job performance and satisfaction and increasing burnout risk. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of verbal and physical violence against psychiatric nurses and its impact on their quality of life.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted from April to October 2024. A sample of 171 nurses was selected using a convenience sampling method. The study was carried out at Eradah Complex for Mental Health in Arar City, Eradah Hospital for Mental Health in Al Jouf City, and Mental Health Hospital in Al Qurayyat City. The authors evaluated workplace violence and quality of life among nurses using a questionnaire-based interview and a 36-item quality of life assessment tool. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 25.ResultsThe participants’ mean age was 34.85 ± 4.74 years, 67.8% were male, and 52.7% had over 10 years of experience. The overall prevalence of workplace violence was found to be 100%, with 62% exposed to verbal violence and 38% to physical violence. Regarding quality of life, 66% had an average quality of life, 12.9% had a good quality of life, and 21.1% had a poor quality of life. Statistically significant associations were found between the type of violence and quality of life (P-value < 0.05).ConclusionThe study found significant levels of verbal and physical workplace violence among psychiatric nurses, with a significant correlation between violence and their quality of life. These results highlight the need for targeted interventions, including training programs, improved workplace safety policies, and continuous monitoring to support nurse well-being and job satisfaction.

BackgroundOccupational burnout is prevalent among doctors and nurses. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of ICU doctors and nurses regarding occupational burnout.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2023 and June 2024 at the Zhejiang Medical & Health Group Hangzhou Hospital in Zhejiang Province. Demographic information and KAP scores were collected through distributed questionnaires. Occupational burnout was measured by the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS).ResultsThis study included 105 doctors and 165 nurses, with an average age of 32.23 ± 7.38 years. Among all the participants, 6 (2.22%) reported no occupational burnout, 230 (85.19%) experienced moderate occupational burnout, and 34 (12.59%) reported severe occupational burnout. The mean knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 9.64 ± 4.21 (possible range: 0–18), 29.01 ± 3.15 (possible range: 7–35), and 16.96 ± 4.29 (possible range: 6–30), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that a higher knowledge score was independently associated with more proactive practice (OR = 1.33, 95% CI: [1.18, 1.50], p

This table shows the average number of hours worked per week for salaried medical workers by sector in a reporting year. The medically trained are divided into a number of professions, including the specialisms per profession, on the basis of the BIG register. This table only gives figures for the socio-economic category 'employee', i.e. persons whose main source of income is paid employment. Figures are broken down by age and gender.

Medically trained people can have multiple powers. As a result, the sum of the details may differ from the total.

In 2014, there was a sharp decrease in the number of registered nurses, midwives and physiotherapists in the BIG register. This is the result of a mandatory re-registration and stricter work experience requirements. In 2017, there was a decrease in the number of registered dentists, pharmacists, healthcare psychologists and psychotherapists as a result of mandatory re-registration. In 2018, there was a decrease in basic doctors as a result of compulsory re-registration. In 2019, the number of registered nurses, midwives and physiotherapists decreased again as a result of the 5 yearly re-registration introduced in 2014. In 2021, the classification of nursing specialists was adjusted. All nursing specialists registered in 2020 in the specialisms acute care or intensive care have been converted into the new specialism general health care (AGZ) in the BIG register as of 2021. In addition, a large part of the nursing chronic care has also been transferred to nurse AGZ as of 2021.

Background: The onset of COVID-19 disease pandemic worldwide has been associated with a high level of psychological distress. Health workers are amongst the high-risk groups for contracting COVID-19 and may be particularly vulnerable to a variety of mental health problems. This study was conducted to determine the psychological impact of the pandemic on mental well-being of Nigerian nurses who are among the frontline health workers in the fight against the disease. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted on a sample of nurses in two tertiary healthcare setting. A simple random sample of 111 nurses completed the general healthcare questionnaire (GHQ 12). Results: The mean age of respondents was 36.86±8.2 years, consisting of 38.7% males and 61.3% females. The prevalence of psychological distress was 64.9%. Females had significantly higher psychological distress than males (p= 0.003). Also, respondents performing duties in COVID-19 ICU hosting institution had significantly higher distress score than those from non COVID-19 hosting centre (p= 0.02). Psychological distress was also significantly higher for respondents with a history of exposure to suspected (p= 0.001) or confirmed cases (p< 0.001). Formal infection prevention training was a protective factor for the development of psychological stress (p= 0.002). Conclusions: A large proportion of nursing staffs have a high level of psychological distress during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Mental health interventions may be required to mitigate mental health risks in these health workers.

Background:Treatment success rates for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in South Africa remain close to 50%. Lack of access to timely, decentralized care is a contributing factor. We evaluated MDR-TB treatment outcomes from a clinical cohort with task-sharing between a clinical nurse practitioner (CNP) and a medical officer (MO). Methods:We completed a retrospective evaluation of outcomes from a prospective, programmatically-based MDR-TB cohort who were enrolled and received care between 2012 and 2015 at a peri-urban hospital in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Treatment was provided by either by a CNP or MO. Findings:The cohort included 197 participants with a median age of 33 years, 51% female, and 74% co-infected with HIV. The CNP initiated 123 participants on treatment. Overall MDR-TB treatment success rate in this cohort was 57.9%, significantly higher than the South African national average of 45% in 2012 (p<0·0001) and similar to the provincal average of 60% (p=NS). There were no significant differences by provider type: treatment success was 61% for patients initiated by the CNP and 52.7% for those initiated by the MO. Interpretation:Clinics that adopted a task sharing approach for MDR-TB demonstrated greater treatment success rates than the national average. Task-sharing between the CNP and MO did not adversely impact treatment outcome with similar success rates noted. Task-sharing is a feasible option for South Africa to support decentralization without compromising patient outcomes. Models that allow sharing of responsibility for MDR-TB may optimize the use of human resources and improve access to care.

To determine the impact of prenatal and infant/toddler nurse home visiting on maternal and child mortality over 20 years following program enrollment. Three randomized controlled trials (Elmira, NY; Memphis, TN; Denver, CO) designed originally to assess program impacts on pregnancy outcomes and maternal and child health through child age 2. Each trial included a control group, a group that received the full intervention (nurse visitation through child age 2), and an alternative treatment group (nurse home visitation through pregnancy only or visitation by paraprofessionals through child age 2). Due to sample size considerations, the Elmira and Denver samples were combined for all mortality analyses. For determining mortality, background information used for determining mortality status was available for all 1138 mothers randomized to a Memphis treatment condition and all but 13 of the live-born children (n=1076). For the combined Elmira and Denver group, background information was available for all 1135 mothers randomized to any one of the treatment conditions and all but 10 of the live born children (n=1087). Pregnant women and their first-born children who were enrolled in one of three trials of the Nurse-Family Partnership (Elmira, Memphis, Denver) were included in the current study. The Elmira sample (N = 400) was enrolled between April 1978 and September 1980 with an 80% recruitment rate. At enrollment, 47% of the participating women were younger than 19 years of age, 62% were unmarried, and 61% came from families in Hollingshead’s social classes IV and V (semi-skilled and unskilled laborers). In the Memphis trial, a total of 1138 out of 1289 eligible women (88.3%) completed informed consent and were randomized from June 1, 1990, through August 31, 1991. We enrolled primarily African American women at less than 29 weeks of gestation, with no previous live births, and with at least 2 of the following socio-demographic risk characteristics: unmarried, less than 12 years of education, and unemployed. Of the women enrolled, 92.1% were African American, 98.1% were unmarried, 64.1% were 18 years or younger at registration, and 85.1% came from households with annual incomes below the US federal poverty guidelines. Denver trial enrollment took place between March 1994 and June 1995 with a total of 735 out of 1178 consecutive pregnant women with no previous live births who were eligible for Medicaid or who had no private health insurance enrolled in the trial and were randomized to control, paraprofessional, or nurse-visited conditions. 86% of participating women were unmarried, 42% were under 19 years of age, 45% were Latino, and on average participants lived in census tracts where 20% of the population was below the poverty line. The current study was approved by the University of Rochester Institutional Review Board and the Combined Institutional Review Board of the University of Colorado.

In 2023, there were nearly 322,000 registered nurses (RNs) employed in Canada. Over 110,000 of them were employed in Ontario. Quebec’s RN workforce of around 78,000 made up around a quarter of the total workforce. How many nurses are there in Canada? In Canada, four groups of nursing professionals are regulated: nurse practitioners (NPs), registered nurses (RNs), registered psychiatric nurses (RPNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs). LPNs are also called registered practical nurses (RPNs) in Ontario and becoming an LPN requires less amount of education compared to the other three nursing professionals. The number of regulated nurses employed in Canada has been steadily increasing and reached 478,000 in 2023.

What percentage of nurses are male? While nursing is still a female-dominated occupation, the percentage of male nurses has been increasing. In 2023, among registered nurses, the male female ratio was roughly 1:9. That is, every one in ten nurses was male. Meanwhile, the average age of an RN has been decreasing. However, there were differences between the province and territories, with the average age of nurses ranging from 41 to 46 years old.

BackgroundNurses and researchers emphasize the importance of adding educational content of palliative care to nursing curricula in Iran as a means to improve the quality of care at the end of life and self-efficacy is considered as an important determinant in palliative care nursing. However, undergraduate nursing students are not sufficiently trained to achieve the qualifications required in palliative care. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of combined training (theoretical-practical) of palliative care on the perceived self-efficacy of nursing students.MethodsThis is a semi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design. Sampling was nonrandomized with convenience method and included 23 seventh-semester students. The intervention consisted of palliative care training for ten theoretical sessions and three practical sessions. Data were collected using demographic and the perceived self-efficacy questionnaires completed before and after the intervention. Data were then analyzed in the statistical SPSS 23 software using descriptive and analytical statistics.ResultsThe mean age of the samples was 22.78 (SD1.17). Most of the participants were male (56.5%) and single(91.3%). The findings showed that, perceived self-efficacy, psycho-social support and symptom management improved significantly after the intervention (p

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic has led to a drastic increase in the workload of healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, with serious consequences for their psychological well-being. Our study aimed to identify demographic and work-related factors, as well as clinical predictors of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), in nurses employed during the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsWe carried out a cross-sectional study between December 2020 and April 2021 on nurses employed during the COVID-19 second wave (October - December 2020). We evaluated PTSD and GAD using two validated questionnaires: i) the Impact of Event Scale – Revised (IES-R); and ii) General Anxiety Disorder –7 (GAD-7).ResultsOverall, 400 nurses, whose mean age was 34.3 years (SD ± 11.7), were included in the study. Most were female (78.5%), unmarried (58.5%) and employed in the central (61.5%) regions of Italy. A total of 56.8% of all participants had clinical predictors of PTSD, recording a median IES-R score (IQR) of 37.0 (22.0, 51.0) (range 1-84; cut-off >33 for PTSD). Furthermore, 50% of respondents reported moderate-to-severe symptoms consistent with GAD, recording a median GAD-7 score (IQR) of 9.5 (6.0,14.0) (range 0-21; cut-off >10 for GAD). Multivariable analysis showed that moderate-to-severe GAD (aOR = 4.54, 95% CI: 2.93 - 7.05), being employed in the critical care area (aOR = 1.74, 95% CI: 1.01 - 3.00) and being female (aOR= 1.88, 95% CI: 1.09 - 3.22) were significantly associated with the presence of clinical predictors of PTSD.DiscussionThe levels of PTSD symptoms and anxiety among nurses were high during the pandemic. PTSD and GAD represent a public health problem that should be addressed in the post-pandemic period. Healthcare organizations need to activate specific support and rehabilitation networks and programs for healthcare professionals employed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
