Burnout symptoms; Tool III: Questionnaire for Assessment Nurses compliance of prevented
measures for Burnout Prevention and Tool IV: Observational checklists for Protection and
preventions procedures. The results: after interventions most of studied nurses had good
level of knowledge and practices regarding burnout management and infection control
procedures; reduction of nurses' burnout symptoms after intervention within the different
measurements; additional incidence rate of Covid-19 infection decreased. Conclusion:
