Abstrakt

The aim of the study was to verify the level of burnout severity in nursing staff working in various health care sectors that were not dedicated to providing health services to people with COVID-19 infection. The relationship between the level of empathy, altruism and depression and the intensity of individual burnout indicators was also analyzed. professional among the respondents.

The study covered a total of 178 people - staff employed in psychiatric care (64 people) and in other health care sectors (114 people). The study participants completed five questionnaires: a sociodemographic and four clinical tests: Christina Maslach's Burnout Questionnaire, Beck Depression Scale, Balanced Emotional Empathy Scale, and Altruistic Attitudes Questionnaire. Using clinical tests, the following were assessed: the general index of occupational burnout and its three dimensions (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and job satisfaction), the level of depression, altruism and emotional empathy. Nursing staff employed in psychiatric care was characterized by lower levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, as well as professional satisfaction and altruism compared to the average medical staff employed in health care sectors other than psychiatric. Moreover, a positive correlation was found between the severity of depression and the level of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and general occupational burnout index in both study groups (psychiatric versus non-psychiatric nursing staff). Nursing staff representatives working in psychiatric health care units are characterized by a lower level of occupational burnout, altruism and job satisfaction than in the case of people employed in other medical sectors. A higher level of occupational burnout is associated with a greater intensity of depressive symptoms. Differences in the levels of individual dimensions of occupational burnout and altruism may result from the specificity of work in various medical sectors. It should be emphasized that the chronicity, recurrence of mental illnesses, the higher rate of rehospitalisation of patients with mental disorders or the delayed effect of the therapeutic process.
