Stop a minute. Are you worried you might be burning out, drinking too much or nicotine dependent?
Burnout
Burnout can occur in a range of occupations, but frequently occurs in the caring professions.
Factors contributing to burnout include excessive workloads, patient pressures, lack of control, interference from managers, insecurity, reorganisation, poor support, front line practice, perceived threats of complaints or violence, and dysfunctional workplaces.
This confidential questionnaire can help you screen yourself for symptoms of burnout. It will help you identify feelings and experiences you have about your work, so that you can get a feel for whether you might be vulnerable to burnout.
Alcohol dependence
This questionnaire provides a simple method of screening for excessive drinking and can be used to identify harmful or hazardous patterns of alcohol consumption.
The questions should be answered in relation to your use of alcoholic beverages over the past year.
Nicotine dependence
What are your triggers for smoking? Use this questionnaire to find out your level of nicotine dependence.
