Prevalence of Stress and Burnout in Physical Therapist Clinical Instructors
Physical Therapy Clinical Instructors exhibit moderate stress and burnout levels, similar to general PT populations. The findings highlight the need for targeted interventions supporting PT CIs, particularly considering the COVID-19 pandemic impact. Future research should explore additional factors influencing PT CI stress and burnout and develop strategies of mitigation.
