Background:
As the trend of pharmaceutical care around the world shifts to client-centered care, there is a need for new pharmacists to improve their knowledge and skills, learn psychological skills, provide customers with health education, and improve the rational use of drugs and pharmacological services.
Objective:
This study is based on the fact that no research has been conducted in Mongolia on factors that affect burnout syndrome and social-psychology of pharmacists.
Literature review:
The following are internationally accepted methods of assessing sociopsychological risks to determine the socio-psychological factors associated with the work and occupation of workers and their impact on health and safety. These include:
Burnout Measue-BM, 1981 (Pines & Aronson 1988). A method of measuring burnout, physical and emotional fatigue, and mental exhaustion. (Bazarragchaa, 2020)
The Copenhagen Psychosociol Questionnaire COPSOQ (Christenson et al. 2005) focuses on socio-psychological factors, stress, personal health, well-being and individual factors (style, sense of mutual understanding, etc.).
The Copenhagen Burnout Inverntory (CBI, 2005) examines fatigue, exhaustion, and work-related
burnout as well as customer-related burnout.
Conclusion
There are more than 40 definitions of “Burnout syndrome”. The “Maslach Burnout Inventory” has become the “Gold standard” for assessing the burnout of service workers. The Copenhagen Burnout Inverntory (CBI, 2005) studies fatigue, exhaustion, and individual, work-related and customer-related burnout.
