  2. Level of burnout among providers • The Systematic Monitoring of the Male Circumcision Scale-up (SYMMACS) is a two year study designed to track VMMC service delivery. • Visits to 73 sites from Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania and Zimbabwe and interviews with 357 VMMC providers in 2011 • Providers reported on levels of job satisfaction as personal experience of burnout and the frequency of burnout among their colleagues Levels of personal job satisfaction and burnout among VMMC providers in Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania and Zimbabwe • (* α <0.05, ** α <0.01, ***α <0.001)

  3. Results: provider cadre and time until burnout Percent of Providers reporting burnout by # of VMMCs performed Percent of Providers reporting burnout by months working in VMMC Levels of job satisfaction and burnout among Medical Doctors and non Medical Doctors in South Africa and Zimbabwe

  4. Conclusions • Burnout is affecting VMMC providers in all four countries. • Burnoutincreases over time with a spike in the period of 4-6 months. Extra measures to motivate staff during these periods could be especially beneficial. • Lower job fulfillment and higher burnout among MDs encourages further research into the feasibility of implementing task-shifting to allow nurses to perform VMMC in South Africa and Zimbabwe. • Differences between countries encourage further exploration of programmatic elements which may influence burnout (ie. Electrocautery, and VMMC kits). • SYMMACS 2012 results should be used to validate the 2011 findings and show differential results over time. • These results can inform human resource policies and program planning for VMMC as well as other clinical HIV services.
