Abstract

|
|
Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the levels of fatigue, social support, and burnout among nurses caring for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, and to identify factors that affect burnout.
Methods : Data were collected from 115 nurses who were caring for COVID-19 patients in Gyeonggi Province and Seoul from December 2021 to February 2022.
Results : The mean scores for fatigue, social support, and burnout were 63.31 ± 11.48 (of 95), 48.34 ± 6.97 (of 60), and 81.90 ± 15.50 (of 132) points, respectively. The level of burnout of nurses caring for patients with COVID-19 was high. Fatigue (β = .49, p < .001) and social support (β = -.21, p = .012) were significantly associated with burnout.
Conclusion : Higher levels of fatigue and lower levels of social support were associated with higher levels of burnout. Reducing fatigue among nurses and strengthening their social support can be a strategy to reduce nurse burnout.
