Abstract

Burnout affects health care providers and leads to adverse consequences. A 21-day gratitude journaling activity implemented in a Midwest long-term care setting was a personal, low-cost, and low-tech intervention requiring minimal time commitment to address burnout. The Maslach Burnout Inventory was utilized to assess burnout pre- and post-intervention of a gratitude journal.
