Is burnout common among health care personnel dealing with situations of great emotional intensity? This study surveyed personnel in 40 hospices to examine the components of burnout among those who work with the terminally ill. Although the overall burnout among staff was found to be relatively low, a higher than average measure of burnout was recorded among employees with high educational levels, long tenure, and full-time status.
