Can sleep quality and burnout affect shift-work nurses’ job performance?

November 23rd, 2017

In a Journal of Advanced Nursing study, female gender and personal burnout were linked with impaired sleep quality among nurses.

Also, working in the psychiatric setting, working a long cycle shift pattern, and experiencing daytime dysfunction were associated with burnout.

A significant negative association between patient-related burnout and job performance was also observed.
