“…Occupational-related burnout is increasingly recognized as a serious problem affecting many people working in the human services, particularly health-care workers, who suffer from negative feelings for self, work and life (13). Health-care professionals work with others in emotionally demanding situations and are exposed to their clients' psychological, socioeconomic and physical problems.…”

Little is known about professional burnout among health-care workers in Egypt. The current study aimed to reveal the extent of burnout among physicians and nursing staff working in the emergency hospital of Tanta University and to identify some of its determinants. A cross-sectional study was carried out on all physicians (n = 266) and a systematic random sample of nurses (n = 284). Burnout was assessed using the Maslach Burnout Inventory and its subscales. Most of the participants (66.0%)had a moderate level of burnout and 24.9% of them had high burnout. Multivariate analysis of variables affecting burnout showed that age, sex, frequency of exposure to work-related violence, years of experience, work burden, supervision and work activities were significant predictors of burnout among the respondents. The authors recommend health education interventions during pre-employment training programmes for prevention of burnout syndrome and periodic screening for early detection and management of burnout. Une analyse multivariée des variables ayant un impact sur l'épuisement professionnel a démontré que l'âge, le sexe, la fréquence des expositions à la violence liée au travail, les années d'expérience, la charge de travail, la supervision et les activités professionnelles étaient des facteurs prédictifs importants de l'épuisement professionnel chez les répondants. Les auteurs recommandent des interventions en matière d'éducation sanitaire au cours de programmes de formation avant l'entrée dans la vie active pour prévenir le syndrome d'épuisement professionnel, puis un dépistage systématique visant la détection précoce et la prise en charge de ce syndrome. ‫مرص‬ ‫طنطا،‬ ‫بجامعة‬‫املتوسط‬ ‫لرشق‬ ‫الصحية‬ ‫املجلة‬ ‫العرشون‬ ‫و‬ ‫احلادي‬ ‫املجلد‬ ‫عرش‬ ‫الثاين‬ ‫العدد‬ 907

“…In others the variables of years in the profession and years in current post or setting were reported just as descriptive means rather than reporting of possible correlations (Edwards et al, 2001;Sorgaard et al, 2007). Prosser et al's (1999) modelling of mental ill health and burnout in UK acute and community mental health nurses found correlations between tenure in the profession and burnout factors but not GHQ caseness.…”

Abstract:Nurses' own mental health is of paramount important, both in terms of patient safety and the sustainability of the workforce. Age, years in the profession, in post and personal experience or exposure to mental health problems are relevant to the mental health nursing workforce crisis in the UK.This study aimed to determine the relationship between age, years in the profession and post and self reported experience of mental health problems using an online cross sectional survey of 225 UK mental health nurses. Number of years in post was inversely correlated with overall experience of mental health problems, particularly living with someone else with mental health problems. Those with experience of living with someone with mental health problems had significantly fewer years of professional experience than those without. This paper discusses possible explanations for this phenomenon and makes the case for future research on the topic. 146 words

Aims and methodThe study explored the impact of National Health Service changes on the working and personal lives of psychiatrists. A questionnaire survey was carried out with psychiatrists working in the South Eastern Division of the Royal College of Psychiatrists.ResultsThe response rate was 44.9%. Changes to services have reduced stress in some areas, but increased stress in others. Over the past decade early retirement has become less popular, but psychiatrists have been more likely to self-prescribe and have suicidal thoughts.Clinical implicationsThe increasing involvement of psychiatrists in leadership may be a way to reduce adverse impacts of future changes on their working lives.
