The Covid-19 pandemic is having a significant impact on the well-being of nurses and has exacerbated long-standing issues of stress and burnout. Expecting or hoping that nurses will recover quickly or bounce back from the stress and deep trauma of the pandemic is not realistic. Each nurse has a story, and while these stories may have similar themes, they are all different. It is important to reflect on our stories, identify the myriad of emotions we are experiencing, and find ways to work through our feelings. Ignoring, denying, or suppressing feelings does not serve us well in the long run. Stifling negative emotions does not make them go away. A Call to Action is needed to address the impact of the pandemic, clinician burnout, and systemic racism on health-care organizations and educational institutions. Strategies are identified that will support personal and organizational well-being.
新冠疫情对护士的福祉产生了重大影响,并使长期存在的压力和倦怠问题恶化。期望或希望护士能够从疫情带来的压力和深度创伤中迅速恢复或反弹是不现实的。每位护士都有自己的故事,虽然这些故事可能有相似的主题,但它们都是不同的。重要的是要反思我们的故事,识别我们所经历的无数情绪,并找到处理这些情绪的方法。从长远来看,忽视、否认或压抑情绪对我们没有好处。压抑负面情绪并不能让它们消失。需要采取行动来应对疫情、临床医生倦怠和系统性种族主义对医疗保健组织和教育机构的影响。确定了支持个人和组织福祉的策略。
