| Abstract |
Nationally, frontline nurses report increased workplace burnout and decreased resiliency due to poor management, lack of teamwork, staffing, mandatory overtime, and lack of resources. A gap analysis at Intermountain Healthcare identified a need for a DNP project that addressed resiliency skills and early identification of workplace burnout of frontline nurses.This process improvement project involved frontline nurses and nurse managers from the six rehabilitation units at Intermountain Healthcare. Frontline nurses participated in a 20-minute training on recognizing low resiliency and self-care measures. Nurse managers participated in a two-part training on resiliency coaching. In addition, frontline nurse participants were asked to complete baseline and follow-up surveys that measured resiliency and burnout. Results showed that a resiliency coaching program could positively impact a frontline nurses resiliency, engagement, confidence, and knowledge. However, a focus on resiliency does not necessarily equate to improved burnout symptoms and decreased turnover. Proactive training in problem-solving, optimism, self-care and support help frontline nurses build the resiliency skills to deal with workplace burnout. Incorporating resiliency training into a regular cadence throughout the year for frontline nurses can provide the necessary skills to deal with workplace burnout and stress. In addition, incorporating resiliency coaching into leadership development plans for nurse managers can provide the necessary skills to cultivate a safe and inclusive working environment for frontline nurses. |
