Health professions are ranked among the most stressful occupations and have a much higher likelihood of absenteeism from work. In this article, we present findings from four health professional case studies in our Healthy Professional Worker partnership, involving surveys with 1,860 respondents and 163 interviews with nurses, physicians, midwives, and dentists conducted between December 2020 and April 2021. We found that the pathway from mental health experiences through to the decision to take a leave of absence and return to work differed between the health professions and that both gender and leadership matter greatly. There is a need to de-stigmatize mental health issues and encourage greater awareness and support from supervisors and colleagues. Leadership can play an important role in mitigating mental health issues, and as such investment in both leadership training and mentorship are important first steps in acting upon our research findings.
卫生专业人员被列为压力最大的职业之一，他们旷工的可能性要高得多。在本文中，我们介绍了我们在健康专业人员工作伙伴关系中的四个卫生专业案例研究的结果，这些研究涉及对 1860 名受访者的调查和对护士、医生、助产士和牙医的 163 次访谈，调查于 2020 年 12 月至 2021 年 4 月进行。我们发现，心理健康经历与决定休病假和重返工作岗位之间的途径因卫生专业而异，性别和领导力也非常重要。需要消除心理健康问题的污名化，并鼓励主管和同事提高认识和提供支持。领导力可以在减轻心理健康问题方面发挥重要作用，因此，投资领导力培训和指导对于我们的研究结果至关重要。
