The aim of the study was to analyze the long-term burnout levels of healthcare professionals (HCPs) working in Slovenian nursing homes during the fifth wave of the pandemic; to compare the results of similar facilities in 2020 and 2013; and to examine the correlation between demographics and burnout and fatigue among HCPs.
The study used a descriptive, correlational cross-sectional method.
In the fifth wave, HCPs suffered more from emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and lack of personal accomplishment than in the first wave of the pandemic and in the spring of 2013. The HCPs caring for COVID-19 patients and younger women had higher rates of burnout and fatigue than other occupational groups. There is a strong positive correlation between burnout and fatigue.

本研究旨在分析在第五波大流行期间,在斯洛文尼亚养老院工作的医护人员(HCPs)的长期倦怠水平;将 2020 年和 2013 年类似设施的结果进行比较;并研究 HCPs 之间人口统计学与倦怠和疲劳之间的相关性。
该研究采用描述性、相关性、横断性方法。
在第五波中,HCPs 比大流行的第一波和 2013 年春季更容易出现情绪疲惫、人格解体和成就感缺失。照顾 COVID-19 患者和年轻女性的 HCPs 比其他职业群体更容易出现倦怠和疲劳。倦怠和疲劳之间存在强烈的正相关关系。
