Anyone have methods of combating burnout? I am having my first experience with it. I work in an incredibly poor, underserved population, who generally take all their frustrations out on me and my staff. I have very poor ancillary services. I have a mix of nurses who are great but as over worked as me or been in the job so long they really don't give a @@@@ anymore. Aside from that, I'm just not feeling that challenged. I'm not cocky and still get humbled from time to time, but I have pretty sound algorithms in place and find that I don't really find the job as challenging as I did when I was fresher... which is making the actual practice more monotonous. I need to spice up this relationship before I lose interest to the point that I need to find something else...
