Unfortunately, understaffing, burn out and high turn over go with the territory in such a high stress job. I’m amazed that you can even do the job in the first place. I don’t think I could. You obviously really care about your patients and want what’s best for them. And the support you provide is invaluable.
The others already gave you the best advice possible. So I’ll just say be strong and don’t be afraid to do what you need to do. I know how scary it is to look for a new job. I just lost mine and I can’t even think about going out and looking for another. Fortunately, my doctor agrees. But you have to look out for yourself and if the situation where you are doesn’t improve then the negative effects of the stress might start to outweigh the benefits.
