Clinical Question
The question delegated to group 5 is how to prevent nurse burnout. (Risk, Cause, precaution).

The increased number of hospital admissions during the SARs-CoV-2 pandemic had created an extra workload, causing nurses to work long shifts without release as other nurses did not show up for work due to being sick contracting the virus, and fear of taking the risk and losing their lives.

A PICOT question was formulation to guide this research paper. The purpose of this paper is to address the problem of how to prevent nurse burnout, identifying the Risk, Cause and Precautions.
