Personal, professional and workplace factors associated with burnout in Jordanian midwives: A national study.

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: The high prevalence of burnout identifies the urgent need for a national plan to address midwives' psychological health in Jordan. Midwives should be appropriately trained to recognize the signs and symptoms of burnout in a timely way, and for support services to be offered. The government could consider implementing continuity of midwifery care models, reducing the administrative burden on midwives, and empowering them to work to their full scope of practice.
