Abstract
Aim: The purpose of this study was to put forth the exhaustion state of healthcare professionals providing healthcare services in the city of Bitlis located in eastern Turkey and to compare the states of exhaustion of the healthcare professionals providing pre-hospital, first level and second level services. Additionally, determining the ratio of the intention to resign and the factors affect their intentions are among the aims of this study.
Material and Methods: The study's target population comprised of all healthcare professionals working in Bitlis between 01.11.2018-01.01.2019. Age, gender, place of work, duty, marital status, number of children, smoking status, years of experience and whether they intend to resign or not of all participants were asked and Maslach burnout inventory (MBI) were filled after their consent. Data were analyzed with SPSS. P values <0.05 were considered significant.
Results: A total of 490 individuals participated in the study. The average score of the participants was 21.6±5.42 for emotional exhaustion, 6.32±4.15 for depersonalization and 20.74±9.45 for personal failure. Of the participants, 40% had an intention to resign.
Conclusion: Burnout was found to be at a moderate level among healthcare workers. Burnout has a negative effect on intention to quit. Increasing financial satisfaction, taking into account the preferences of individuals when choosing the unit to start the profession, providing in-service training on ways to cope with stress and providing a peaceful working environment by establishing close contact with employees can be offered as solutions to burnout.
