WHO has decreed an end to the pandemic crisis from COVID-19. However, the consequences of stress, compassion fatigue, and healthcare workers' expectations are still evident. Also, the hope of ending the problems associated with the pandemic is still present, although the awareness of maintaining a high level of attention is current in the HCWs.
In our observational study, 102 (65 females, 37 males) mental healthcare workers were evaluated during and post-COVID-19 pandemic. They were divided into different categories of workers: nurses, physicians, psychologists, social assistants, social educators, social health workers, and psychiatric rehabilitation technicians. We used the ProQoL for compassion fatigue, compassion satisfaction, and burnout; BHS for hopelessness.
ProQoL data showed a significant increase in compassion satisfaction in post-pandemic (p=0.002) in all professional workers. The same results in burnout and secondary stress subscales (respectively, p=0.018, p=0.000) are evident. The BHS total score indicated that the difference between T0 vs. T1 was not statistically significant (p=0.109).
The collected data during and post-COVID-19 pandemic showed reduced burnout and compassion fatigue in the helping professions. However, in the periods analyzed, no changes in hope are observed.
世界卫生组织已宣布 COVID-19 大流行危机结束。然而，压力、同情疲劳和医护人员的期望所带来的后果仍然明显。此外，尽管医护人员目前仍意识到需要保持高度警惕，但结束与大流行相关问题的希望仍然存在。
在我们的观察性研究中，在 COVID-19 大流行期间和之后评估了 102 名（65 名女性，37 名男性）精神卫生保健工作者。他们分为不同类别的工作人员：护士、医生、心理学家、社会工作者、社会教育工作者、社会卫生工作者和精神康复技术员。我们使用 ProQoL 评估同情疲劳、同情满足和倦怠；使用 BHS 评估绝望感。
ProQoL 数据显示，所有专业工作人员在大流行后（p=0.002）的同情满足感显著增加。倦怠和次级压力子量表（分别为 p=0.018，p=0.000）也显示出相同的结果。BHS 总分表明 T0 与 T1 之间的差异无统计学意义（p=0.109）。
在 COVID-19 大流行期间和之后收集的数据显示，帮助行业的倦怠和同情疲劳有所减轻。然而，在分析的时期内，并未观察到希望发生变化。
