AI simplified

Abstract

A sample of 225 paediatric nurses showed that perceived health is negatively correlated with and common work-shift.

  • Higher levels of burnout in paediatric nurses are associated with poorer perceived health.
  • The common work-shift significantly correlates with both burnout levels and perceived health.
  • A moderating effect of common work-shift on the relationship between burnout and health was observed.
  • Balancing the ratio of night-to-day shifts may help control the impact of burnout on health.
