Healthcare workers face rising levels of distress, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion, with burnout and workplace attrition escalating.
“Healthcare workers face rising levels of distress, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion, with burnout and workplace attrition escalating [1, 2].”
From Recruitment, retention and recouperation: lessons learned from a study aimed at assessing burnout mitigation in physician learners (2025) · cites this paper as [1]
The paper’s main text (page unavailable) describes exhaustion and heightened sources of stress and anxiety during COVID-19, and reports high rates of distress and burnout among health-care workers. It also notes cases of workers abandoning their posts, but does not establish that workplace attrition was escalating or document a rise in burnout rates. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-01.
Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-10-01.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
