Nurturing Resilience: Exploring the Interplay of Burnout, Turnover Intentions, and Professional Quality of Life among Female Nurses in Wah Cantt’s Hospitals

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the associations between burnout, intention to leave, and professional quality of life among female nurses working in various Wah Cantt hospitals in Islamabad. The current study looked at the connection between female nurses' professional quality of life and their intention to leave burnout. Two hundred female nurses made up the sample, and information was gathered from hospitals in Wah Cantt. The information was gathered from several hospitals, both public and private. Of them, 73 belonged to private hospitals, and 127 were affiliated with government institutions. The age range of female nurses was 21 to 49 years old. Three measures are employed in this study: burnout, intention to leave, and professional quality of life. With the aid of SPSS software, the data was analysed using correlation, one-way ANOVA, independent t-tests, demographic variable frequencies, and regression analysis. For example, the BOS scale showed reliability (.697) when used to assess burnout, the TIS scale demonstrated reliability (.513) when used to assess turnover intention, and the proQoL scale demonstrated reliability (.671) when used to assess the professional quality of life among female nurses. The results showed that while there is a somewhat favourable correlation between burnout and proQoL, there is no significant correlation between burnout and turnover intention. Conversely, among nurses, there is a positive correlation between turnover intention and proQoL.
