Anxiety, Depression and Burnout Levels of Nurses Working in Covid-19 Intensive Care Units

This descriptive and correlation-seeking study was planned to determine the depression, anxiety, and burnout levels experienced by nurses working in COVID intensive care units. The survey consisted of three instruments: Nurse Identification Form, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Burnout Measure Short Form (BMS). It was determined that the mean anxiety score of the nurses was 11.31 ± 4.41, the mean depression score was 10.03 ± 3.54, and the mean of burnout was 3.92 ± 1.75. In addition, it was determined that 53.3% of the nurses experienced burnout and 27.0% were so exhausted that they needed professional help. Also, it was determined that there was a moderately significant positive relationship between anxiety and burnout and depression and burnout ( p < 0.001). Protecting the mental health of nurses is very important in terms of both improving the quality of care and increasing the productivity of nurses
