Abstract

Nurses and residents in the emergency department (ED) encounter particular difficulties in this high-stress setting, including as making life-or-death choices, managing a large patient load, and having variable work schedules. Burnout is a result of excessive levels of occupational stress, which are influenced by these factors. In recent times, there has been an increasing worry about burnout among healthcare personnel, including emergency nurses and residents. This study examines the importance of addressing burnout among emergency nurses and residents in Saudi Arabia. The high-stress environment of the emergency department, along with systemic and cultural factors, contributes to the prevalence of burnout in this population. The study highlights the need for strategies and interventions focusing on individual well-being and organizational support to mitigate burnout. Successful interventions, such as mindfulness-based stress reduction programs and wellness initiatives, have shown promising results in reducing burnout and enhancing job satisfaction. By implementing targeted interventions and creating a supportive work environment, healthcare organizations can effectively address burnout and improve outcomes for both healthcare providers and patients.
