In the dynamic and high-stakes environment of hospital settings, healthcare workers (HCWs) face myriad challenges that can impact their well-being and efficiency. Among these, work overload and stress stand out as pervasive issues, with significant implications not only for the health and job satisfaction of HCWs but also for patient care outcomes. The complexity of modern healthcare delivery, characterized by increasing patient loads, administrative duties, and the constant need for adherence to evolving best practices, places considerable pressure on HCWs, leading to burnout and reduced work efficiency (Smith et al., 2020).
