Burnout among physical therapists (PTs) is a significant concern that manifests as emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a reduced sense of personal accomplishment. This phenomenon not only affects the therapists' health but also compromises the quality of patient care and the overall effectiveness of the healthcare system.1 Research indicates that a substantial percentage of PTs experience burnout at various stages of their careers, with estimates suggesting that nearly half of PTs report feelings of burnout.
