Abstract

Healthcare workers are a susceptible population to be psychologically affected during health crises, such as the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Resilience has been pointed out in the literature as a possible protective factor against psychological distress in crisis situations. This can be influenced by internal and external factors, such as individual characteristics and organizational factors. Thus, this study aims to characterize the overall resilience levels among healthcare professionals in Portugal and to understand the perspectives of this healthcare workers regarding organizational factors that improve individual resilience. This is a mixed-method study: a first quantitative study using a cross-sectional design to administer the Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA) to 271 healthcare professionals (Mage 33.90, SD = 9.59 years, 90.80% female), followed by a qualitative study through 10 in-depth interviews. The mean score for the total RSA was 178.17 (SD = 22.44) out of a total of 231. Qualitative analysis showed 4 major themes on factors that enhance resilience: "Professional's Training," "Support and Wellbeing Measures," "Reorganization of Services" and "Professional Acknowledgment." The findings may contribute to the development of targeted interventions and support systems to enhance resilience and well-being among healthcare workers.

新冠肺炎期间医疗保健专业人员的复原力和提高个人复原力的组织因素:一项混合方法研究。
在最近的新冠肺炎大流行等健康危机期间,医护人员是易受心理影响的人群。文献中指出,在危机情况下,韧性可能是抵御心理困扰的一个保护因素。这可能受到内部和外部因素的影响,如个人特征和组织因素。因此,本研究旨在描述葡萄牙医疗保健专业人员的总体恢复力水平,并了解这些医疗保健工作者对提高个人恢复力的组织因素的看法。这是一项混合方法研究:首次使用横断面设计对271名医疗保健专业人员(Mage 33.90,SD = 9.59 年,90.80%为女性),然后通过10次深入访谈进行定性研究。总RSA的平均得分为178.17(SD = 22.44)。定性分析显示了关于增强复原力因素的4个主要主题:“专业人员培训”、“支持和福利措施”、“服务重组”和“专业认可”。这些发现可能有助于制定有针对性的干预措施和支持系统,以增强医护人员的复原力和幸福感。
