Aim This study aimed to explore work environment and mental health in nurse assistants, nurses and health executives in a national large‐scale study. Background We have data for physicians but not for other health care workers categories. Methods A total of 6935 participants were recruited between May and June 2021 by professional mailings and professional networks. Results All professional categories reported high rates of high psychological demand (>90%), low social support (>60%), burnout (50% to 60%), exposure to potentially morally injurious events (>40%) and depression (approximately 30%). Surgery nurses reported the highest exposure to potentially morally injurious events. Major depression was identified in approximately 30% of participants in all categories, but less than 10% reported consuming antidepressants. A total of 31% to 49% of participants reported sleep disorders and 16% to 21% reported consuming regularly hypnotics. Physicians reported high hazardous drinking behaviour and nurse assistant high smoking rates. Conclusions and Implications for Nursing Management Our results suggest that preventing burnout and depression in health care workers is a priority. To reach this goal, nursing managers could develop some interventions to reduce psychological demand and increase personal accomplishment and social support between colleagues, and prevent sustained bullying at the workplace and health risk behaviours. These interventions should be further developed and evaluated.

Currently, with the perspective of becoming the second leading cause of disease in the world, depression is seen as a disease of modern society, affecting even health professionals such as nurses, nursing technicians, and nursing assistants. Based on this, this work aims to survey data on the use of antidepressants in the clinical nursing staff – nurses, technicians, and assistants who work at night at the ABHU. A questionnaire was designed to understand the reason for using antidepressants in the clinical nursing staff – nurses, technicians, and assistants. In addition, the questionnaire also aims to confirm hypotheses such as, whether the use of antidepressants by health professionals is related to the length of experience in the area, the use of antidepressants is related to stress, physical and emotional exhaustion, the length of treatment with antidepressants with a perception of improvement, it is related to the time of use, whether there is a relationship between the use of antidepressants and gender and whether the treatment with antidepressants is carried out with monitoring of professionals.
