Did you know that #burnout is in fact a #workplace related condition & not an #illness but the only way to get rest and the needed time off is to be booked off on #sickleave

I need to reiterate that #burnout is a workplace syndrome
As presented by Dr Y Mohangi

[andrea booth @andreabooth7]

#burnout is a workplace condition and did you know it can take up to three years to fully recover

Why is it in 2026 #women in #nursing are still putting each other down?
#jealous of others achievements and #knowledge
We need to #support each other to be able to stand up for what is right
Not be a house divided

Let’s talk names
I am a #professional who studied for up to 10 years. Just like my #doctor colleagues
We are #interdependent
#nurses have their own council

If I MUST call the Dr Surname, then I insist on being called Sr Booth

(As insisted on by the UM of the HC facility)

[andrea booth @andreabooth7]

Just for something a little bit different because my life scant only be about nursing

In the society where I working, we have a lot of moms who need shortened hours.
But because the facility can’t #retain staff they refuse & threaten to stop shortened hours posts. They are willing to ‘loose’ experienced & qualified #ICURN instead of keeping them

And then…. Please explain to me how this is ethical?

@MalcolmMiller6 I’ll see you there!

Do I need to say more?

[andrea booth @andreabooth7]

#nursepatient ratios in SA need to be regulated as the are starting to be done in some states of America
Not only does it place the #patient at risk but I cause untold #harm and #trauma to the #nurses trying their best to provide adequate care

I’m a millennial & currently struggling with #burnout & #worklife balance
imagine my reaction when I got told I can’t work less hours
#GenZ aren’t apply for jobs because they want less hours & work life balance #WTF at the company I work at?! Review your recruitment ideas guys!

Looking forward to these #hottopics at the #criticalcarecongress being presented in #capetown in September by the Critical Care Society of SA

#crazysock4docs day
If only the company, maybe more the hospital, I work for would take it a little bit more seriously we would all feel safer
A happy safe nurse = a happy safe patient
