Abstract

For a successful profession nurses need to identify the nurse attributed to the role requirements, that is acquainted with it, what it means to exercise the role of nurses. This "familiarization" mostly takes place in the basic qualification study and during the process of adaptation to a particular department.

Another component is the subjective interpretation of the requirements imposed on the general role of the nurse may be an idealization and distortion of images of nurses in nursing activities. Novotna (2010) states that what sisters are for ideas and ideals of her profession in a confrontation with reality more striking, is the emergence of disillusionment and burnout in the profession faster.

This formulation can be modified. Before the development of burnout leads to multiple conflicts in the plane just a subjective interpretation of the role and this may lead to the development itself "burnout." The third component necessary for the proper performance of the role of the nurse role performance, then the activity itself.

When sister chooses a compromise between the requirements and interpretation of roles.
