BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Nursing is a vital profession in the health system and job burnout is a common phenomenon in this profession. It imposes many costs on health systems in addition to the impact on individual and professional lives. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between burnout and quality of life (QoL) of nurses in hospitals of Guilan University of Medical Sciences.
METHODS: This descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 350 nurses working in teaching hospitals of Guilan University of Medical Sciences in Rasht using multistage sampling in 2015. The data gathering tool was a three-part questionnaire including demographic information, World Health Organizations QoL questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF with 26 questions) and Maslach Burnout Inventory (22 questions). The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 16.
FINDINGS: Totally, 66.6% of nurses were female and 67.4% of them had less than 10-year work experience. The age range of 60.3% of them was 20-42 years. The overall mean score of QoL in nurses was 62.51±19.99. There was a statistically reverse relationship between frequency and severity of burnout in emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal accomplishment subscales with all areas of QoL.
CONCLUSION: Based on the results, there was a significant and negative relationship between severity and frequency of burnout subscales with all dimensions of QoL; therefore, managers need to pay attention to the symptoms of burnout and adopt educational and management strategies to prevent burnout and improve nurses' QoL.
