Abstract

Background: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may not only affect the mental health of nurses, but may also affect nurses' job performance. The study was aimed at assessing the mental health status and job performance among nurses in secondary health facilities in Ibadan.

Methods: A cross-sectional study among 250 nurses in secondary health facilities in Ibadan, Nigeria. Generalized anxiety disorder, insomnia, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and job performance were assessed using pre-tested standardized tools.

Results: About 34%, 17.2%, and 3.6% had mild, moderate, and severe anxiety, while 31%, 10.4%, and 6% experienced mild, moderate, and severe depression. Additionally, 12%, 2.4%, and 13.6% had mild, probable, and high PTSD. Job performance was significantly associated with marital status, anxiety, insomnia, depression, and PTSD symptoms (p<0.001).

Conclusion: This study highlights the need to prioritize the mental health of nurses in order to promote their efficiency.
