“…Recently, Sheikhrabori et al (2022) presented a scoping review, based on Embase, Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, from January 2014 to December 2020. The 63 articles reviewed, using diverse theoretical frameworks, showed that: (1) the main aspects of healthcare providers' resilience were personal resilience (sub-sub-categories: personality; self-care), resilience in the emergency department (sub-sub-categories: organizational support; geographical capacity; suitable healthcare infrastructure), and resilience in healthcare providers (sub-sub-categories: escalation exercises, medical professionals' resilience, nurses' resilience, and psychologists' resilience); (2) the primary method of becoming resilient is handling adversity and hardship..…”

Healthcare professionals constantly face situations that reflect ecosystems’ degradation. These can negatively affect their mental health. Research suggests that hope and resilience can play an important role in this scenario, since they are related to/predict mental health in highly heterogeneous samples (considering geography, age, profession, health, etc.). In this context, the aims of the present study are: to characterize and explore the relationship between hope, resilient coping and mental health of Portuguese healthcare professionals. Using Google Forms, 276 healthcare professionals answered to the GHQ-28, the (adult) Trait Hope Scale, and the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (cross-sectional study). The minimum and maximum possible scores were reached, with the exception of the maximum score of GHQ-28-Total. Regarding Hope, 19.6% scored below the midpoint (M=43.46, SD=11.97); 29.3% revealed low resilience (M=14.93, SD=4.05); and the average of 4 of the 5 Mental Health scores (exception: Severe Depression) indicates the probability of a psychiatric case. Hope correlated with Social Dysfunction and GHQ-28-Total; resilient coping proved to be a (weak) predictor of 4 of the 5 GHQ-28 indicators (exception: Severe depression). The results support the need to promote the sample's mental health, hope and resilient coping. They also suggest that stimulating resilient coping may contribute to improving healthcare professionals’ mental health.

“…As with hope, a considerable volume of research, from different countries, focusing on varied populations, using diverse assessment techniques, has evidenced an association between (diversely operationalized) resilience and mental health (e.g., Afek et Recently, a scoping review by Sheikhrabori et al ( 2022) [63] showed the following: (1) the main aspects of healthcare providers' resilience were personal resilience (sub-subcategories: personality and self-care), resilience in the emergency department (sub-subcategories: organizational support; geographical capacity and suitable healthcare infrastructure) and resilience in healthcare providers (sub-sub-categories: escalation exercises, medical professionals' resilience, nurses' resilience and psychologists' resilience); (2) the primary method of becoming resilient is handling adversity and hardship. The authors concluded that it is necessary to consider distinctive strategies to increase the resilience of different healthcare providers.…”

In this context, the aims of the present study are the following: to characterize and explore the relationship between hope, resilient coping and mental health in Portuguese healthcare professionals. Using Google Forms, 276 healthcare professionals answered the GHQ-28, the (adult) Trait Hope Scale, and the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (retrospective, analytical observational, cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational research design). The minimum and maximum possible scores were reached, with the exception of the maximum score of GHQ-28-Total. Regarding Hope, 19.6% scored below the midpoint (M = 43.46, SD = 11.97); 29.3% revealed low resilience (M = 14.93, SD = 4.05); and the average of four of the five Mental Health scores (exception: Severe depression) indicates the probability of a psychiatric case.

The results support the need to promote the sample’s mental health, hope and resilient coping. They also suggest that stimulating resilient coping may contribute to improving healthcare professionals’ mental health. Prior research (e.g., on therapies to enhance hope, resilience and, thus, mental health), to which the current study contributes, supports optimism towards the necessary internal sustainability transition.

IntroductionCurrent literature emphasises the importance of resilience in health care. Studies have shown that lack of resilience not only leads to adverse clinical outcomes but is also associated with burnout and long‐term stress in clinicians. Resource‐limited rural settings in the United States often impose unique stressors, and thus, it is critical to examine resilience of health care providers practicing rural medicine.MethodsAn anonymous REDCap survey was completed by medical students, residents and attending physicians between 7 April 2021 and 18 May 2022. The primary outcome of resilience was measured by the Connor‐Davidson Resilience Scale 10 (CD‐RISC‐10©).ResultsSurvey takers scored moderately on the resilience scale (30.64 on a 40‐point scale). The first quartile of respondents scored between 0 and 28; the second quartile scored between 29 and 30; the third quartile scored between 31 and 35; the fourth quartile scored between 36 and 40. Age and years of service were not correlated with resilience. However, survey takers who had been exposed to trauma informed care scored significantly higher on the resilience scale (32.37 vs. 28.85, p = 0.021). The level of resilience when compared by profession was found to be comparable among medical students, residents and attending physicians.ConclusionIndividuals scoring in the first two quartiles of the CD‐RISC‐10© perhaps indicate need for support as they are having difficulty coping with stress. Health care organisations should provide resilience training to support the wellness and mental health of their staff. Moreover, dedicated efforts should be made toward creating trauma‐informed health care organisations as exposure to the topic of trauma informed care had a significant positive impact on resilience.
