Those working in healthcare often experience burnout, so the interviewer wants to understand how you balance the stresses of work and home. Give examples of how you maintain a healthy work-life balance. Examples could include taking breaks, shutting off your work phone/email when appropriate, prioritizing health and wellness, exercising, and open communication with your manager.

"I find that with the right company, it's pretty simple to balance life and work. When I enjoy what I do it doesn't feel like a chore. I am always sure that when at home, my family gets my attention first. I take time on the weekends to do things for myself and ensure that I regenerate before the work week begins."

"I make a strong effort to keep a healthy balance by spending my free time away from my cell phone and having more face-to-face time with my friends and family. I indulge in the things that make me happy, on my time off. By consistently rejuvenating in this way, I can give even more energy when I am at work."
