EP 67: Burnout and Resilience: Strategies for Balance and Well-Being in Nursing

Burnout is a workplace epidemic affecting not only nurses but also leaders, with far-reaching consequences for well-being and performance.

In this episode, Dr. Perry Gee discusses burnout as a workplace condition defined by exhaustion, cynicism, and inefficiency, and identifies its causes as lack of control, incivility, and an inability to disconnect. He advocates for building resilience through fostering connections, setting boundaries, and engaging in purposeful, evidence-based self-care practices, and believes that control over practice, such as through certification, fosters resilience and well-being by empowering nurses and nurturing their sense of purpose.

Tune in to explore the root causes of burnout, the importance of resilience, and actionable strategies to create healthier work environments for healthcare professionals!
