A group of nurses is talking about the demands of nursing. Which of the following statements by one of the nurses indicates career burnout?

A. This statement reflects career burnout, characterized by emotional exhaustion, feelings of being undervalued, depersonalization, and a sense of reduced personal accomplishment. Feeling isolated or that one is carrying the burden alone is a hallmark of burnout in healthcare professionals. B. Using vacation time is a healthy coping strategy and part of self-care. Nurses who take time off to rest are less likely to experience burnout, not more. C. Questioning organizational issues, such as supply shortages, may indicate frustration with work environment or systemic problems but does not in itself indicate personal burnout. Burnout is related to emotional exhaustion and reduced sense of efficacy, not just awareness of workplace inefficiencies.
