Stress and Burnout 

Stress and Burnout of CAN’s Staff Working with Geriatric Clients in Long-Term Care.

Dealing with geriatric clients (the elderly) can be stressful and demoralizing to the attendants, the relatives, nurse assistants as well as the nurses. Research often suggest that burnout among the UAP nurse assistants is caused by highly demanding and endless dynamics of their working environments. Observing suffering patients, high demands and little rest as well as psychological overworking often cause stress and burnout among clients. (Margo M. C. van Mol, Benoit, & Nijkamp, 2015). Statistical data show that a big proportion (61%) of those who pursue Nurse assistant as a career are mainly between the age of 25-30. 70% are of the feamle gender while only 23% are of the African-American descent. 48% of nurse assistants work in the private facilities in Connecticut (Cooper,et al,2016).
