Organizational Role Stress (ORS) is described as “The emotional, cognitive, behavioural, and physiological reaction to aversive and noxious aspects of work, work environments, and work organizations.” Studies have indicated that when compared to other professions, Health Care Workers (HCWs) are at higher risk of organizational stress with rising job expectations. Aim & Objective: To determine the Organizational Role of Stress among Health Care Workers working in Sub Health Centres of Raipur District Chhattisgarh and its association with sociodemographic characteristics. Methods and Material: A descriptive cross-sectional study among 113 HCWs was done by using a self-administered questionnaire, using Pareek’s ORS Scale to determine 10 dimensions of Role Stress such as Inter-Role Distance, Role Stagnation, Role Expectation Conflict, Role Erosion, Role Overload, Role Isolation, Personal Inadequacy, Self-Role Distance, Role Ambiguity, and Resource Inadequacy. HCWs were selected by simple random sampling. Results: Role overload was the cause of the greatest role stress level among HCWs. Levels of ORS were observed to have a statistically significant association with higher among female HCWs, among unmarried, among nuclear families, those who were educated below 10th standard, and among the upper class. Conclusions: This study's findings need administrators and policymakers to establish an attractive working environment to reduce the side effects and effects of role stress and boost the HCWs' productivity.","PeriodicalId":13363,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Community Health","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139332410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An early recognition and intervention leads to lifelong impact. Objective: To study the prevalence and pattern of various ocular morbidities in school going children of urban and rural areas of Aligarh. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study carried out from October 2017 to July 2019 in 10 schools in Aligarh, a district in North Western UP. Schools from urban and rural areas were listed and 5 urban and 5 rural schools were selected by lottery method. Results: Of the total 9982 students enrolled in study, 5742 children were from urban schools, and 4240 children were from rural schools. A total 2189 students were found to be suffering from various ocular morbidities, yielding an overall prevalence of ocular morbidity of 21.93%. The prevalence in urban and rural schools was 22.41% and 21.27% respectively (P=.286). Refractive error was found to be the most common ocular morbidity followed by Vitamin A Deficiency. Conclusion: Refractive errors and Vitamin A deficiency were the most common ocular disorders identified which are preventable and treatable causes of childhood blindness. These conditions can be easily identified by regular eye screening programs and promptly corrected. Awareness among school teachers should also be improved and they should play an active role in identifying the ocular problems and referring them for timely management.","PeriodicalId":13363,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Community Health","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139332965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
