ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is designed to study the emotional burden that nurses face in their jobs, particularly focusing on how much they are at risk for burnout. Burnout is a state of physical and emotional exhaustion that can happen when someone is under a lot of stress at work. The researchers want to understand how working conditions in specific areas of healthcare, like hematology and geriatric care, affect nurses' emotional well-being.

To participate in this study, nurses need to have more than two years of experience in the hematology or geriatric departments. They must also be willing to sign a consent form to take part in the study. Unfortunately, nurses from other departments will not be eligible. While the study is still in the planning stages and hasn’t started recruiting participants yet, those who join can expect to share their experiences and feelings about their work, which could help improve support for nurses in the future.
