Abstract |
Purposes/Aims: Nursing is a profession with high rates of burnout. This MSN project aims to; identify current evidence-based research about the effects of registered nurse (RN) burnout and; how resilience affects burnout. Evidence-based strategies are utilized to create an RN resiliencebuilding; training program.; Rationale/Background: RN burnout caused by a stressful work environment has adverse; effects, including decreased quality of RN's personal and professional life, decreased patient; safety, and financial burden on organizations (Bakhamis et al., 2019; Wei et al., 2018). Building; resilience can help nurses better manage work stress, resulting in decreased burnout, improved; patient care, and increased retention rates (Chesak et al., 2019; Low et al., 2019).; Methods: This MSN project provides organizations with a clear path to implementing a; resilience-building training program for RNs. This project provides the importance of combating; RN burnout and offers evidence-based strategies to build resilience in RNs over six months. The; implementation of this project is guided by The Model for Evidence-Based Practice Change; using best evidence and systematic problem-solving approach (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt,; 2019).; Results: It is anticipated that as RNs on an acute care medical-surgical unit implement a; resilience-building training program over six months, their burnout rates will decrease, as; measured by the Maslach Burnout Inventory (Erwan et al., 2020).; Conclusions: Developing and implementing an evidence-based resilience-building training; program on an acute medical-surgical unit is anticipated to decrease RN burnout significantly.; The benefits can then be translated to other areas in the acute care setting. |
