OBJECTIVES
This study characterizes determinants of stress, depression, quality of life, and intent to leave among emergency medical technicians (EMTs) in the Puget Sound region, Washington, during the COVID-19 pandemic and identifies areas for intervention on these outcomes.
METHODS
A cross-sectional survey measured stress, depression, quality of life, and intent to leave among EMTs ( N = 123). Regression models were developed for these outcomes.
RESULTS
A total of 23.8% of respondents were very likely to leave their position in the next 6 months. Job demands predicted stress and depression, and financial security predicted stress and quality of life. Intent to leave was predicted by stress, manager support, and length of employment.
CONCLUSIONS
Increased exposure to hazards has impacted EMT mental health. Emergency medical technicians are vital to healthcare, so improving EMT health and well-being is important, as attrition during a pandemic could impact public health.
目的
本研究旨在描述华盛顿州普吉特海湾地区 COVID-19 大流行期间急救医疗技术员（EMT）的压力、抑郁、生活质量和离职意愿的决定因素，并确定针对这些结果进行干预的领域。
方法
一项横断面调查衡量了 EMT（N=123）的压力、抑郁、生活质量和离职意愿。针对这些结果开发了回归模型。
结果
共有 23.8%的受访者很可能在未来 6 个月内离开他们的岗位。工作要求预测了压力和抑郁，财务安全预测了压力和生活质量。离职意愿由压力、经理支持和工作年限来预测。
结论
暴露于危险环境的增加对 EMT 的心理健康产生了影响。急救医疗技术员是医疗保健的重要组成部分，因此改善 EMT 的健康和福祉非常重要，因为大流行期间的人员流失可能会影响公共卫生。
