Abstract

Introduction: The literature related to quarantined nurses’ lived experiences working in nondesignated COVID settings is scarce. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of quarantined nurses after accidental exposure in nondesignated COVID areas in a tertiary care hospital. Material and Methods: It was a qualitative phenomenological study. Snowball sampling technique was used to interview 11 nurses. The in-depth interviews were conducted telephonically using a prevalidated interview guide during October 2020 to February 2021. The interviews were audiotaped, transcribed, and translated to English. Thematic analysis was done using Colaizzi’s phenomenological method. The findings depicting similar codes were grouped into subthemes and themes. The findings are presented thematically with corresponding participant quotes. Results: Out of 11, six (55%) participants were quarantined in home and five (45%) in the institutional facilities. The major themes that emerged were: “psychological reactions,” “quarantine: the positive aspect,” and “support system” among the home quarantined nurses. The major themes in the institutional facility quarantined nurses were: “psychological reactions,” “poor quality of institutional quarantine facility,” “quarantine: the positive aspect,” “support system,” and “quarantine: a learning experience.” The nurses experienced various negative emotions during quarantine. Conclusion: To safeguard the physical and mental health of nurses, comprehensive support should be provided by the authorities in terms of availability of basic amenities and quality services during quarantine. Regular training and constant motivation are needed to promote their mental preparedness for crisis management.
隔离期间护士的生活经历:来自北印度的定性研究
引言:与被隔离护士在非指定的COVID环境中工作的生活经历相关的文献很少。本研究旨在探讨三级医院非指定疫情区意外暴露后被隔离护士的生活经历。材料与方法:定性现象学研究。采用滚雪球抽样法对11名护士进行访谈。深度访谈在2020年10月至2021年2月期间使用预先验证的访谈指南进行电话访谈。这些采访被录音、转录并翻译成英文。主题分析采用Colaizzi的现象学方法。描述相似代码的研究结果被分为副主题和主题。调查结果以主题形式呈现,并附有相应的参与者引用。结果:11名参与者中,有6名(55%)在家中被隔离,5名(45%)在机构设施中被隔离。出现的主要主题是:家庭隔离护士的“心理反应”、“隔离:积极方面”和“支持系统”。机构隔离护士的主要主题是:“心理反应”、“机构隔离设施质量差”、“隔离:积极方面”、“支持系统”和“隔离:学习经验”。在隔离期间,护士们经历了各种负面情绪。结论:为了保障护士的身心健康,当局应在隔离期间提供基本设施和优质服务等方面提供全面支持。需要定期培训和不断激励,以促进他们对危机管理的心理准备。
