Somatization symptoms and burnout: a correlational study among emergency nurses
Emergency nurses in this study exhibited severe somatization symptoms, with burnout identified as a significant contributing factor. To address this issue, healthcare management should consider implementing alternative shift patterns, optimizing workforce allocation, and revising compensation systems to ensure equitable labor distribution. These measures would support the healthy development of emergency nurses. Furthermore, nurses should prioritize self-care by engaging in activities such as psychological interventions, positive thinking training, and yoga to reduce burnout and enhance overall health.
