Few organisations can say they have thrived during the nationwide lockdown but Rotorua Library is one of them, reporting huge spikes in e-material being issued daily.
Rotorua Library's e-collection includes more than 22,000 eBooks and nearly 2500 eAudiobooks as well as hundreds of magazine and newspaper titles.
In the past four weeks, the average number of loans from the eLibrary has more than doubled to 249 loans per day compared with April 2019, which saw an average of 114 loans per day.
The Saturday prior to lockdown also saw a nearly 50 per cent increase in loans, with locals borrowing 1706 physical items.
In the eight days prior to closing, library staff saw an increase of almost 25 per cent in issues over the same period last year.
There are currently 19,422 items in people's homes, that's almost a third of the library's borrowable collections.
Library director Laura Marshall said the eLibrary collection had enabled the library to continue meeting the community's needs.
"The elevated usage of these eResources has been exciting to see."
Marshall is also excited about plans to launch new library services as the country moves down the alert levels.
"A delivery service is being planned in which librarians will select and deliver books to customers based on customer reading preferences. This will be available to customers who have been advised to stay home based on their age or pre-existing health conditions."
Other customers will be able to apply to use a new click and collect service. More information about both of these services will be available in coming weeks.
Meanwhile, library staff have also made sure locals don't miss out on the programmes it offers with online sessions of popular preschool programme He Pi Ka Rere as well as easy craft ideas to keep house-bound children entertained, virtual origami and New Zealand Sign Language lessons.
The physical library will remain closed when the country moves to alert level 3.
Due dates on all items issued before the lockdown have been extended to June 1.

3. Burnout in Mental Health Nurses
How to Protect This Vital Workforce
Introduction
The burnout syndrome is prevalent in every workforce
particularly in the healthcare industry.
Burnout syndrome is characterized by a state of emotional
exhaustion, depersonalization and low levels of personal
accomplishment that is experienced in the workplace (Lopez-
Lopez, et al, 2019).
Burnout among nurses are commonly a result of imbalanced
workload, lack of work-life balance and other stressors
(Edwards, et al, 2000).
In particular, mental health nurses experience unique prevalence
of burnout as compared to other healthcare nurses and staff.
In the healthcare industry, burnout and stress are among the
most common state being experienced by staff and
professionals. Apparently, the healthcare industry is one of the
most highly dynamic and complex environments. Thus, the
healthcare workforces, especially the nurses, are among the
most vulnerable to burnout and stress. According to Lopez-
Lopez, et al (2019), differences in areas of healthcare is a
significant factor in the development of burnout. In particular,
the mental health sector cares for patients with psychiatric
behaviors which makes mental health nurses more prevalent to
burnout.

Objectives/ Purpose of Presentation
As already introduced, mental health nurses are vital to the
effectiveness of the provision of mental health services. Since
4. we all agree on this conceptualization, this presentation aims to
address three objectives – (read the objectives). By the end of
this presentation, it is expected that students understand the
prevalence of burnout in the healthcare setting and be able to
determine initiatives to protect the health and wellbeing of this
vital workforce.
3
Protecting a Vital Workforce from Burnout
Understand the prevalence of burnout in mental health nurses
Determine the stressors and impact of burnout in mental health
nurses
Explore existing and/or new initiatives to protect the workforce
of mental health nurses
Relevance to Contemporary Mental Health Nursing
Burnout is one of the most researched mental health problem in
the modern world (Heinemann & Heinemann, 2017).
Burnout is one of the impacts of stress and professional
challenges among mental health nurses in the contemporary era
5. particularly since the emergence of globalization leading to
significant shifts in mental health sector (Foster, et al, 2019).
The prevalence of burnout among mental health nurses has
increased over the past decade due to the build-up of a highly
stressful environment in the mental health sector (Sadiku,
2016).
It is important for mental health management to include relevant
coping strategies and interventions to address burnout taking
into consideration current trends in the labour market and
changes in behaviors of mental health nurses (McTiernan, et al,
2014).
The mental health sector has undergone significant changes over
the last few decades. Prior to the emergence of globalization,
the conventional manner of working in organizations enable
employees to still achieve work-life balance because thereby
causing fewer stress and burnout. Yet, the level of burnout, not
just among mental health nurses but to all employees, has
increased significantly in the contemporary era. Therefore,
studies regarding burnout in workforces became more relevant
particularly in contemporary mental health nursing. Significant
shifts in the mental health sector are continuous which means
that it is important for mental health management to include
relevant coping strategies to address burnout taking into
consideration current trends in the labour market and changes in
behaviors of mental health nurses.
4
Relevance to Clinical Interventions in Practice
Understanding the factors that lead to burnout among nurses can
contribute to the development of effective clinical interventions
in practice.
In today’s modern world, burnout among nurses is highly
prevalent because of continuous exposure to work stress
environment resulting from poor working conditions and
6. prolonged stress (de Oliveira, et al, 2019).
Similarly, Pijpker, et al (2020) suggested that elimination of
stressors can enable workplace health promotion practitioners to
dealing with burnout among employees in the healthcare setting.
Having a better understanding on burnout in mental health
nurses and how to protect this vital workforce is significantly
useful in promoting interventions in clinical practice
particularly in the modern world. There are a number of studies
in literature connected to promoting effective clinical
interventions in practice but there are still gaps that need to be
filled. Findings from this study can contribute to adding to
empirical knowledge towards obtaining satisfactory
improvements in dealing with burnout in nurses through new
interventions in mental health practice.
5
Relevance to Professional Practice
The findings from this study can be useful in the development
of new interventions that are more applicable in the current
situation within the environment of professional practice.
Lorenz & Guirardello’s (2014) study found that burnout is
correlated by different variables in professional practice such as
job satisfaction, quality of work performance, work attitudes
and intent to quit jobs.
Burnout is caused by work-related stress among nurses and is
associated with psychiatric symptoms that lead to changes in
professional attitudes and behaviors (Karanikola &
Papathanassoglou, 2013).
Burnout is a topic that is relevant to professional practice in
several fields, not just in nursing. As such, there is significant
relevance between this research and related studies about
burnout and stress in the professional practice. Despite the
7. burnout syndrome being mostly associated with the nursing
profession, it is still considered as an important health problem
in different professional fields such as in leadership profession.
The findings from this study can be found relevant in
contributing to added knowledge on how professionals can use
their education on how to apply their knowledge of burnout in
their work and training on job engagement.
6
Relevance to Reflectiveness in Practice
Nurses have sufficient knowledge and the right perception but
there is still high prevalence of burnout (Nabadda, 2012).
Menezes, et al (2017) noted that exposure to or potential risk of
burnout syndrome can limit professional effectiveness and
learning through experience.
Research regarding burnout is abundant but relevance to
burnout prevention programmes is lacking (Alenezi, et al,
2019).
This study also has significant relevance to reflectiveness in
practice. This means that the findings from this study can raise
reflections with regards to the impact of burnout syndrome to
mental health nurses thereby allowing for the creation of
appropriate clinical interventions in alignment with differences
in behavior and characteristics. This study can aid in raising
awareness about dealing with burnout syndrome effectively
particularly in mental health practice.
7
Relevance to Broader Education in Practice
Nurse leaders play an important role in addressing burnout
syndrome among nurses as well as in improving work
conditions and motivating nurses (Mudallal, et al, 2017).
Volpe, et al (2014) noted that established literatures show the
8. high risk to develop burnout among mental health professionals.
There is a need to broaden studies about burnout in order to add
to new knowledge and evidence to be fitting in today’s time.
There are still a number of areas that can be explored with
relation to understanding the burnout syndrome. This topic has
relevance to several fields that can be researched further
towards advancing learning and developing new ideas and
concepts about the subject that may be more relevant in today’s
time. One of the areas that can be explored in the future is the
influence of leader empowering behaviors in reducing burnout.
Another area that can further be explored is the risk of burnout
among early career mental health professionals. There are
several other areas that can be explored relating to burnout
towards promoting broader education in practice.
8
Relevance to Mental Health Promotion in Practice
“Semantics provide opportunities for improved precision in
depicting what is ‘intervention’ and what is ‘implementation’ in
health care research” (Eldh, et al, 2017).
Current and new researches about burnout can present
opportunities in relation to mental health promotion in the
modern mental health environment.
Lack of evidence regarding underlying mental health problems
such as burnout raises questions with regard to promoting
mental health and wellbeing of healthcare staff and
professionals (Johnson, et al, 2017).
Understanding the burnout syndrome in mental health nurses
can contribute to promoting the health and wellbeing of nurses.
This can also offer findings that can prove vital to protecting
the mental health workforce. This is an important implication
for the healthcare practice because significant changes are
9. always happening which means that it is crucial that current
researches are carried out to broaden options towards promoting
mental health in practice.
9
Conclusion
Burnout syndrome has become highly prevalent in current
mental health practice.
Understanding burnout in mental health nurses can contribute to
the development of effective initiatives towards protecting this
vital workforce.
Burnout syndrome has negative effects on the mental health and
wellbeing not just of nurses, but of all professionals.
To deal with burnout syndrome in mental health nurses, current
clinical interventions include having easy access to support
systems, fostering an open and honest culture and promote
shifting schedules and plausible workloads among others
(Dickinson & Wright, 2013).
This presentation is aimed at providing a better understanding
of the relevance of studying burnout in mental health nurses in
different lenses of practice. Research suggests that the burnout
syndrome is now considered as among the major mental health
concerns in practice, especially in the mental health setting.
Thus, there is a need for this research so that findings can be
used to develop solutions and clinical interventions that can
reduce burnout towards protecting the mental health workforce.

What Have You Learned?
Why is it important to have a better understanding of burnout in
mental health nurses?
Are the existing clinical interventions for dealing with burnout
not effective in today’s modern time? Why?
How can mental health nurses be protected from experiencing
10. burnout syndrome?
