The focus on consistent development is one of the primary goals ion nursing and healthcare as the path to providing patients with the best services and contributing to improvements in the outcomes. In the context of patient safety, the issue of change gains particular significance since it implies the ability to recognize new risks and develop flexible strategies for mitigating them, while also securing patients from recurrent issues (Torlak et al., 2021). In the target environment, workplace burnouts in nurses are likely to become the key impediment to the promotion of change. Specifically, due to the rise in exhaustion and emotional fatigue, nurses are unlikely to accept the change that will represent new challenges and, thus, demand even greater efforts from the already devastated nursing staff members (Batayneh & Nashwan, 2019). To address the described issue, recruiting new nurses by offering incentives, while also providing nurses with effective time management techniques so that nurses could redistribute their workload and arrange their performance more effectively, can be suggested.
Recruiting new nurses will lead to an increase in the nurse-patient ratio, allowing the nursing staff to address patients’ issues more effectively due to the drop in the levels of fatigue and exhaustion. Specifically, the quality of information management will rise due to greater attention rates, and the efficacy of interventions will increase due to a drop in medical errors that stem from burnout in nurses. Therefore, promoting change in the management of tasks, approach toward recruiting new staff members, and the framework for addressing deadlines in the nursing setting must be seen as a viable solution to the current problem of increased burnout in nurses (Mudallal et al., 2017). With the help of an appropriate change management model and a focus on the needs of nurses, a significant improvement can be made.
