- Preventing burnout among healthcare professionals working in end-of-life care : designing an intervention programPublication . Nunes, Ana Paula; Carvalho, Ana Sofia; Teixeira, Sandra MartinsIntroduction: Complex clinical situations as those caused when providing end-of-life care are a major risk for burnout. It is urgent to implement active strategies and intervention programs to prevent and/or diminsh burnout levels among professionals working in intensive and palliative care units. Objectives: To present an intervention program aimed at preventing burnout in intensive and palliative care units; and to discuss the applicability of this program in real clinical contexts. Methods: Based on a literature review and comparison of the results of previous studies on burnout in intensive and palliative care units and its related factors, an intervention program has been designed. Results: The intervention program has been strcutured considering the following dimensions: emotions, emotional intellegence, social skills, quality of life in the work environment, communication and team work, (education about) dying and death, self-awareness, relaxation, and humour. Conclusions: This program has been developed as an interventive strategy to diminish and/or prevent burnout among professionals providing end-of-life care. It is expected that by discussing its applicability in real clinical contexts, further developments might be done for its effective implementation.
