La présente étude vise à explorer l’impact de l’urgence pandémique sur la santé mentale des travailleurs de la santé en adoptant un modèle longitudinal et en évaluant la santé mentale comme une combinaison de symptômes cliniques qui se chevauchent (état de stress post-traumatique, dépression et anxiété)
The nursing workforce plays a central role in quality health care delivery. Nursing work is associated with high levels of stress due to often unmanageable workloads. The associated attrition poses a serious challenge for recruitment and retention strategies. Self-care is recognised as a tactic for addressing workplace stressors, shaping a sense of cohesion where the world is viewed as comprehensible, meaningful, and manageable, thereby mitigating the risk of burnout. Yet research suggests it is not widely utilised by nurses. The aim of this study was to understand mental health nurses’ lived experience of self-care at work.
