Sustaining the Nurse to Protect the Patient

This proposal must be a course on Nurse Burnout to be taught over a time period of one week and will be included in the attached course. Five academic articles within the last five years with verifiable links must be used. This course is to talk about the importance of self care to reduce the risk of burnout and in turn will improve nurse retention and patient outcomes. Be sure to explain the rationale of choosinga community college and my thoughts on this is that ADN nurses have to be bedside ready and are the lowest paid therefore work longer hours and struggle with work life balance. On the flip side BSN prepared nurses have a more opportunities that don’t always include bedside with higher pay.
