Impact of boundary flexibility and work family conflict on occupational burnout among geriatric nurses

Abstract

Abstract: Objective To understand the current situation of boundary flexibility,work family conflict,and occupational burnout among geriatric nurses,and to explore the impact of boundary flexibility and work family conflict on occupational burnout. Methods A simple random sampling method was used to select 188 geriatric nurses from 11 tertiary comprehensive hospitals in Shanghai as the survey subjects from March to August 2024. The boundary flexibility scale,work family conflict scale,and occupational burnout scale were used for the survey,and the data were analyzed. Results The score of boundary flexibility for geriatric nurses was (52.82±10.28)points,the score of work family conflict was (58.43±11.32)points,and the score of occupational burnout was (60.68±11.56)points.The boundary flexibility of geriatric nurses was related to their ages,years of service,professional titles,average monthly income,average monthly night shifts,and number of children(all P<0.05). The work family conflict of geriatric nurses was related to their ages,years of service,professional titles,marital status,average monthly income,establishment status,average monthly night shifts,and number of children(all P<0.05). The occupational burnout of geriatric nurses was related to their ages,years of service,professional titles,marital status,average monthly income,average monthly night shifts,and number of children(all P<0.05). The boundary flexibility of geriatric nurses was negatively correlated with occupational burnout(r=-0.586,P<0.01),while work family conflict was positively correlated with occupational burnout(r=0.539,P<0.01). Boundary flexibility was negatively correlated with work family conflict(r=-0.628,P<0.01). Boundary flexibility and work family conflict can jointly explain 31.20% of the variation in occupational burnout among geriatric nurses. Conclusion The boundary flexibility and work family conflicts among geriatric nurses are closely related to occupational burnout. Improving boundary flexibility and reducing work family conflicts are beneficial for reducing the level of occupational burnout.
