BACKGROUND
While people in the societies must stay home to reduce spread of the newly discovered coronavirus, healthcare professionals do the exact opposite. For them the coronavirus is an enemy that should be defeated as a part of one's job. They do, however, also have a daily life with family while doing their work obligations. The purpose of this study was to gain an in-depth understanding of the frontline healthcare professionals' experience of balancing work life and family life during the COVID-19 pandemic.
METHODS
A sample of 22 frontline healthcare professionals caring for patients with COVID-19 was included and interviewed individually from May to August 2020. Ricoeur's phenomenological hermeneutical philosophy inspired the methodology in this study.
RESULT
Frontline healthcare professionals treating and caring for patients with COVID-19 are, voluntarily or involuntarily, forced to be ready to change departments as well as being ready to face the unknown coronavirus. The frontline work leads to feelings of being abandoned among their families and friends due to the threat of bringing the infection home and spreading the virus. Although healthcare professionals are facing a working life filled with uncertainty and unpredictability impacting their family life, they express opposing feelings of being a part of something bigger.
CONCLUSIONS
The work life balance for these healthcare professionals is threatened by changes in professional responsibilities, working hours and shifts. Fear of bringing the infection home challenges them ethically and creates a distance between healthcare professionals and their families, leading to a conflict within the individual if their work on the frontline is worth it - or if it is a too high price to pay. Despite facing a working life filled with uncertainty and unpredictability the healthcare professionals are being a part of something bigger that contributes to a fighting spirit and professional pride outweighing the negative consequences; like being soldiers on the front.
背景
当社会中的人们必须待在家里以减少新发现的冠状病毒的传播时，医护人员却恰恰相反。对他们来说，冠状病毒是一种必须战胜的敌人，是他们工作的一部分。然而，在履行工作义务的同时，他们也有自己的家庭生活。本研究的目的是深入了解一线医护人员在 COVID-19 大流行期间平衡工作和家庭生活的体验。
方法
本研究采用 2020 年 5 月至 8 月对 22 名照顾 COVID-19 患者的一线医护人员进行的个人访谈，采用 Ricoeur 的现象学解释学哲学作为研究方法。
结果
一线医护人员自愿或非自愿地被迫准备好转科，准备面对未知的冠状病毒。由于担心将感染带回家并传播病毒，他们的家人和朋友对他们感到被抛弃。尽管医护人员面临着充满不确定性和不可预测性的工作生活，影响了他们的家庭生活，但他们表达了作为更大事物的一部分的矛盾感受。
结论
这些医护人员的工作生活平衡受到专业责任、工作时间和轮班变化的威胁。将感染带回家的恐惧使他们在道德上感到不安，并在医护人员及其家人之间造成了距离，导致个人内心的冲突，如果他们在前线的工作值得——或者这是否是一个过高的代价。尽管面临着充满不确定性和不可预测性的工作生活，但医护人员作为更大事物的一部分，有助于激发斗志和职业自豪感，超过负面后果；就像前线的士兵一样。
