Evaluating Advanced Practice Nurses' Burnout and Potential Helping Modalities

Health care providers are experiencing increased stress during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. While it is understood that increased stress leads to burnout, limited research has been conducted to evaluate advance practice nurse response to coronavirus disease 2019, and more specifically, self-identified modalities that may decrease stress in the workplace or at home. This pilot study evaluated advance practice nurse-perceived burnout and evaluated perceived needs and/or perception of modalities aimed at reducing stress and improving well-being, such as essential oils, quiet room, soothing music, art therapy, pet therapy, and mobile applications, that could be easily accessed in the workplace.
