Abstract
personal achievement, is characterized by the individual’s withdrawal from responsibilities and detachment from the job. Multiple studies have indicated a high prevalence of burnout among practicing physicians and have shown that one-third of physicians have experienced burnout at certain points throughout their careers
In the clinical setting, burnout is uniquely problematic as it affects not only the burned out provider but also the patients under his or her care. Prior studies have correlated physician burnout with suboptimal patient care, decreased empathy, and greater than 2-fold increases in preventable adverse events. A large body of literature outlines the potential adverse outcomes of burnout for staff, which include illness and absenteeism, staff conflict, distrust of management, poor coping and substance abuse.
Primary health care (PHC) includes providing services for disease prevention, treatment, management and rehabilitation. It is an essential part of the health system in achieving its goal of improving the health of populations. A PHC system needs a competent, effective, and motivated workforce to provide high- quality services to meet the stated goal.
