| Notes: | Discusses the relevance of burnout and vicarious traumatisation to domestic violence refuge workers, highlighting the paucity of literature and research in this area to date. The concepts of 'burnout' and 'vicarious traumatisation' are defined and some of the themes emerging from the author's own research into refuge workers' experience of burnout and vicarious traumatisation are considered. Strategies adopted by refuge workers in coping with stress and burnout are examined and some directions for future research are identified. |
