Job demands-resources predicting burnout and work engagement among Belgian home health care nurses: A cross-sectional study.

Background: A better knowledge of the job aspects that may predict home health care nurses' burnout and work engagement is important in view of stress prevention and health promotion. The Job Demands-Resources model predicts that job demands and resources relate to burnout and work engagement but has not previously been tested in the specific context of home health care nursing.

Purpose: The present study offers a comprehensive test of the Job-Demands Resources model in home health care nursing.
