“…During the COVID-19 pandemic, in-service training, followup, and inspections to control infection and prevent transmission were carried out very carefully, while the nursing service in general, especially in the high-risk clinics in the major cities of our country. To avoid the spread of COVID-19 infection in our country, efforts were made to raise individual awareness, particularly regarding PPE knowledge, attitude, and behavior, and run an effective struggle process as a healthcare team (63)(64)(65)(66). The prevalence of COVID-19 infection, high mortality, a lack of data on long-term morbidity, and the classification of nursing as a high-risk profession in terms of infection are thought to be the most important factors affecting compliance with standard precautions.…”

Participants’ mean scores were on the The Fear of COVID-19 Scale, Perceived COVID-19 Risk Scale, and Standard Precautions Scale were 19.83 ± 6.36, 29.89 ± 5, and 14.05 ± 2.81, respectively. It was determined that there was a moderate and positive significant correlation between the The Fear of COVID-19 Scale mean scores of the participants and the Perceived COVID-19 Risk Scale (r = 0.619; p = 0.001). There was no statistically significant correlation between the mean scores of the Compliance with Standard Precautions Scale and the mean scores of the The Fear of COVID-19 Scale and Perceived COVID-19 Risk Scale (p>0.05). Conclusion: In line with the results obtained in the study, it was determined that the nurses’ fear of COVID-19 and the perceived risk of COVID-19 were above average.

“…Katılımcıların olumlu deneyimleri; multidisipliner çalışma, ekip ruhunun güçlenmesi, toplumun sağlık çalışanlarına değer vermesi, bireylerin özyeterlilik ve özgüveninin artmasıdır. Yapılan bir çalışmada, pandemide görev yapan sağlık çalışanlarının olumlu deneyimleri olarak halkın sağlık çalışanlarını alkışlayarak desteklemesi ve derneklerin sağlık çalışanlarının yanında olduğunu, onların bu dönemde yaşamış oldukları sorunları fark etmesi olarak belirtilmiştir (Duygulu et al, 2020). Sağlık profesyonelinin rolünün küçümsenmemesi ve verilen hizmetin takdir edilmesi, işverenlerin sağlık bakım çalışanlarını desteklemesi gerekmektedir (Hacimusalar et al, 2020).…”

Amaç: Bu araştırmada, COVID-19 pandemisi sırasında birinci basamakta görev yapan filyasyon ekiplerinin yaşamış oldukları sorunlar, deneyimler ve önerilerini ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı tipte yapılan bu çalışma, filyasyonda çalışan 124 katılımcı ile yürütülmüştür. Veriler, Mart-Ağustos 2021 tarihleri arasında sosyodemografik özellikler ile çalışma yaşamına ilişkin bilgileri içeren anket formu ile toplanmıştır. Ayrıca filyasyon ekibindeki bireylerin yaşadığı olumlu ve olumsuz deneyimler ile öneriler açık uçlu sorular aracılığıyla değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Filyasyonda görev yapan bireylerin %73.4’ünün çalışma saatlerinde değişim olmuş, %52.4’ü fazla mesai yapmıştır. Filyasyon çalışması oryantasyonu için %42.7’si deneyimli bir personel ile birlikte çalışmış, %40.3’üne herhangi bir alıştırma eğitimi yapılmamıştır. Filyasyonda çalışan bireylerin %70.2’si çalışma-bekleme-dinlenme alanlarının olmaması, %68.5’i beslenme problemleri, %57.3’ü hizmet verdiği toplumdan uygun olmayan taleplerin olması, %53.2’si çalışma saatlerinde değişim ve %41.9’u filyasyon çalışmalarının raporlandırılması problemleri yaşamıştır. Daha az problem yaşanan konular ise toplumun sağlık personeline karşı kaygılı yaklaşımı (%38.7), toplumun filyasyon ekiplerine yaklaşımı (%35.5), çalışma alanlarına ulaşım (%35.5), çalışma ekibiyle uyum (%19.4), koordinasyon ekibiyle iletişim (%25.0) ve kişisel koruyucu ekipmanlara ulaşımdır (%14.5). Sonuç ve Öneriler: Filyasyon ekibindeki bireylerin pandemi sürecinde çalışma koşullarına ve toplumla iletişimine ilişkin birçok problem yaşadığı belirlenmiştir. Pandemi gibi olağanüstü durumlarda sağlık hizmeti sunan, toplumla yakın ilişki içerisinde bulunan filyasyon ekiplerinin çalışma-bekleme-dinlenme alanlarının olmaması, beslenme problemleri ve çalışma saatlerinin değişimi gibi problemlerine ilişkin müdahalelerin gerekli olduğu düşünülmektedir.

In this study, nurses expected their managers to fulfil these responsibilities during illness processes.…”

Aim To explain the feelings and experiences of nurses who survived COVID‐19 in their care and recovery processes, based on Watson's Theory of Human Care. Background The COVID 19 pandemic was an extraordinary time when nurses both took care of their patients and dealt with their illness by catching the disease themselves. In this process, nurses who contracted the disease experienced the fear of transmitting the disease to their relatives. Method Qualitative descriptive research design was used in this study. The sample consists of 15 nurses selected by the convenience sampling method and diagnosed with COVID‐19 and recovered. The data were collected in face‐to‐face interviews using the individual in‐depth interview method through a semi‐structured interview form. A thematic analysis was performed on the data according to the 10 carative factors of Watson's Theory of Human Caring. Results It was determined that the spiritual and professional difficulties experienced by nurses who recovered from COVID‐19 during the disease and symptom management process were the fear of death, infecting their family members and losing them, and the importance of life. Conclusion It is considered that care practices based on Watson's Theory of Human Caring will be beneficial in the management of these processes. Implications for Nursing Management Nurses diagnosed with COVID 19 should be supported by the nursing management during their illness so that their negative experiences will not be repeated. Watson's Theory of Human Caring can help eliminate this sense of fear and loss.
