Report
The role of nurse practitioner has gained significant importance in the healthcare community. As these caregivers are given greater responsibility and independence, they are increasingly facing burnout in their employment, particularly in the wake of a historic pandemic. I am interested in studying the factors that are linked to the perception of burnout in nurse practitioners. Additionally, I want to gain knowledge about effective strategies for effectively addressing burnout before it significantly affects the fundamental aspects of advanced nurse practitioners' work. Pogyosyan et al. (2022) found that higher levels of job satisfaction among nurse practitioners result in greater engagement. I am intrigued by this topic due to the evident burden and pressures experienced by healthcare providers in recent times. This sentiment is novel, given the profound upheaval that COVID-19 has caused in the healthcare sector. A significant number of healthcare workers resigned from their positions during the pandemic, and this mass departure was linked to the challenging circumstances brought about by the epidemic, inadequate compensation and career prospects, as well as exhaustion and emotional strain (Burrowes et al., 2023). I am interested in investigating burnout in the aftermath of the pandemic to determine the existence of any tools or remedies that can mitigate the issues related with this phenomenon. The library search tactics employed involved utilizing the Nursing and Allied Health Database, as well as the CINAHL Database, to obtain more nursing-specific information. To find suitable research articles, I conducted a search using specific terms such "nurse practitioner burnout," "nurse practitioner compassion fatigue," and "primary care nurse practitioner burnout." The literature I found focuses on burnout specifically experienced by nurse practitioners, the factors that either support or hinder their well-being, and various ideas related to job satisfaction among nurse practitioners. There are numerous literature sources available that offer valuable insights into the issues related to burnout among nurse practitioners. Based on my examination of the nursing literature, it is recommended that increasing autonomy or transitioning from independent to interdependent practices can be effective strategies for minimizing burnout and enhancing job satisfaction among nurse practitioners (Abraham et al., 2021). Nurse practitioners have recognized that excessive independence in their practice leads to feelings of isolation and work discontent (Fournier et al., 2019). In addition, another strategy to address nurse practitioner burnout involves integrating courses on well-being, stress-management, or self-care into the curriculum for individuals pursuing nurse practitioner degrees (Couser et al., 2020). A study proposed that nurse practitioner faculty and preceptors can enhance the well-being of future providers by incorporating this material into both theoretical and practical learning environments (Wu, et al., 2020).
