Secondary (15) and junior (13) medical staff were questioned according to Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Boyko Emotional Burnout Method.

Results obtained with Boyko Method have identified: 44% of examined personas are at stage of tension, 36% - at stage of resistance and 20% - at stage of emotional exhaustion. Level of emotional burnout and stress was interrelated with duration of work at hospice.
