    Abstract Background: Maternity care organisations have a responsibility to ensure the health and welfare of their staff. Rates of burnout are high in midwifery compared to other professionals. Therefore, exploring how it can be reduced is imperative.
    Aim: To explore with midwives the contributors to burnout and how best to reduce burnout in a maternity hospital in Ireland.
    Methods: A Participatory Action Research study involving Co-operative Inquiry meetings (n = 5) with practising midwives (n = 21) between October 2018 and March 2019, in a large, urban teaching maternity hospital in Ireland. The transcribed data were analysed using Thematic Network Analysis.
    Findings: Several recommendations were made for maternity organisations, to reduce or prevent burnout. These include improving workplace culture, increasing support and acknowledgement, offering time and space for debriefing and reflection and regular rotation of staff. Consistent staff shortages are, however, a barrier to adhering to these recommendations.
    Conclusion: This study is the first of its kind to offer an in-depth exploration with midwives into the main contributors of burnout and what can be done at an organisational level to reduce burnout among midwives. The findings of this study highlighted the importance of working relationships. Additionally, owing to the nature of midwifery practice, time and space need to be created for midwives to debrief and reflect. However, there is an urgent need for healthcare systems to combat staffing shortages in order for these strategies to be successful.

    Abstract Introduction: In depth exploration of the burnout phenomenon among midwives is sparse. The concept has been extensively studied, but predominantly reports rates and evaluates interventions to reduce burnout. A definition has yet to be offered in the literature from a midwifery perspective.
    Aims: To explore midwives' understandings of burnout, professionally and personally, in the context of contemporary maternity care in Ireland.
    Methods: This was a Two-phase Participatory Action Research study. Five co-operative inquiry meetings were held with practising midwives (n=21) over a six-month period between October 2018 and March 2019, in a large, urban teaching maternity hospital in Dublin, Ireland.
    Findings: We found that multiple factors contributed to midwives' perceptions and understandings of the concept of burnout. Midwives defined burnout as persistent stress and exhaustion, with an associated reduction of their individual coping abilities, motivation, empathy and/or efficacy, is unique to the individual and is primarily, in the midwifery context, caused and inextricably linked to excessive workload.
    Conclusion: Burnout is a complex concept with many entities and its significance and impact within the midwifery profession highlights the importance of its exploration and understanding. This study is the first of its kind to explore, with midwives, the concept of burnout. The elements of stress and exhaustion in the definition mirror existing definitions in the literature.

  8. Article ; Online: Giving of the self and Midwife Burnout - An exploration of the consequences of being 'with woman' and how individual midwives can reduce or prevent burnout.

    Abstract Background: The emotional nature of midwifery practice has been described by several researchers and midwives have reported extremely high burnout levels. Burnout is dynamic and effects individual midwives differently, depending on individual coping abilities and demographic and contextual factors. However, midwives themselves can reduce burnout at an individual level.
    Aim: This study aimed to explore the concept of burnout with midwives and to ascertain their perspectives on how burnout can be reduced. This paper presents findings in relation to individual midwives' responsibilities for the reduction of burnout.
    Methods: This was a Participatory Action Research study. A total of 5 co-operative inquiry meetings were held with practising midwives (n = 21) over a six-month period (October 2018 - March 2019), in a large, urban teaching maternity hospital in Ireland. Data was analysed using Thematic Network Analysis.
    Findings: Midwives explored in detail the emotional nature of midwifery practice and how this contributes upon midwives' burnout levels. Recommendations were made for individuals to reduce their own burnout levels. These include self-awareness and basic self-care skills. Some specific individual characteristics were suggested as increasing the risk of burnout such as younger, less experienced midwives.
    Conclusion and recommendations: Midwives require high levels of self-awareness to identify external demands, which make them more susceptible to burnout, and utilise their own positive coping mechanisms. Basic self-care is also necessary for midwife well-being. However, without commitment from healthcare systems to reduce chronic excessive workload, burnout levels will remain high, which impacts negatively on midwives and the women in their care.

    Abstract Maternity services in Ireland have historically been predominantly hospital-based and obstetric-led. Although evidence suggests midwifery-led care is safe and effective, its presence in Ireland continues to be limited in practice. An increase in the available models of maternity care for women has been recommended by the Department of Health in Ireland to promote a woman-centered approach. The latest requirement for midwifery students to have a continuity of care experience within their curriculum offers educators the opportunity to facilitate differing models of care prior to qualification as a registrant, providing an experience to explore midwifery philosophy in practice. The use of a case-loading model, adopted by a university in the East of Ireland in the final year of the program may be a successful way for students to gain midwifery skills as well as offering midwifery students the exposure to another model of care. Such experiences may also enhance their ability to drive and shape midwifery-led services in the future and also build midwifery workforce capacity in continuity of care models.
