Abstract

Empathy and resilience have an indirect effect on raising the level of the quality of care, as empathy is the basis for good interactions between medical workers and patients, and resilience, as a dynamic process, helps caregivers adapt well to difficult working conditions, risks or traumas experienced. The development of empathy and resilience of these medical workers is possible by a training method already employed among medical students in order to both improve the quality of care, but also to more effectively prevent professional burnout. The purpose of the study was to determine the level of empathy and the level of resilience, their possible correlations with each other, as well as the relationship of these variables with socio-demographic variables.The study was carried out in 2021 among 31 doctors and 45 nurses using two main tools - the Emotional-Cognitive Empathy Questionnaire (EEP)by Ewa Wilczek-Rużyczka and the Resilience Measurement Scale(SPP-25) by Nina Oginska-Bulik and Zygfryd Juczynski, as well as a socio-demographic questionnaire.The most valuable results of the study turned out to be the demonstration of statistically significant concordant associations of empathy level with resilience level both in general, and their individual factors as statistically significant intercorrelations. In addition, statistically significant differences were shown in the case of cognitive empathy - higher levels of empathy were found among people with longer work experience and women when compared to men. In the case of the level of other components of empathy, as well as resilience, differences so as to be statistically significant could not be confirmed.It is recommended that empathy and resilience training sessions be implemented for health care workers, and that the study be continued with larger research groups, with additional control groups, to refine the programs of these training sessions.
医疗保健专业人员的同理心和适应力
同理心和恢复力对提高护理质量水平有间接影响,因为同理心是医务工作者和患者之间良好互动的基础,而恢复力作为一个动态过程,可以帮助护理人员很好地适应困难的工作条件、风险或经历的创伤。这些医务工作者的同理心和适应能力的发展是可能的,通过一种已经在医学生中使用的培训方法,既可以提高护理质量,又可以更有效地防止职业倦怠。本研究的目的是确定共情水平和弹性水平,它们之间可能的相关性,以及这些变量与社会人口变量的关系。该研究于2021年在31名医生和45名护士中进行,使用了两种主要工具——Ewa Wilczek-Rużyczka的情绪认知共情问卷(EEP)和Nina Oginska-Bulik和Zygfryd juzynski的弹性测量量表(SPP-25),以及社会人口调查问卷。本研究最有价值的结果是共情水平与心理弹性水平在总体上具有显著的一致性,且它们的个体因素具有显著的统计学相关性。此外,在认知同理心的情况下,统计上也显示出显著的差异——工作经验较长的人和女性的同理心水平高于男性。在同理心的其他组成部分,以及弹性的水平的情况下,差异到统计显着性无法得到证实。建议对卫生保健工作者实施移情和恢复力培训课程,并在更大的研究小组和额外的对照组中继续研究,以完善这些培训课程的计划。
