Description
Summary:OBJECTIVEThis study examined the relationships between the dimensions of the nurse manager (NM) practice environment (PE) and burnout.BACKGROUNDNMs are critical to the success of their unit(s). Understanding the degree to which their PE characteristics impact their level of burnout is important to NM retention.METHODA cross-sectional research design using a 71-item questionnaire was used to measure NM characteristics, hospital characteristics, NM PE, and burnout. There were 110 completed respondents across 22 hospitals in the United States.RESULTSModerate inverse relationships exist between the NM PE and 2 of the 3 (work and personal) dimensions of burnout. NM age and tenure also showed an inverse relationship with burnout.CONCLUSIONSThis study added evidence showing a statistically significant relationship between NM PE and the work and personal dimensions of burnout. These results also suggest the relationships NMs have with the patients on their unit(s) do not add to their level of burnout.
