Advisor(s)
Abstract(s)
Este estudo foi desenvolvido no âmbito de uma tese de dissertação de mestrado. A
pertinência da temática escolhida deve-se em especial ao contexto que Portugal e o Mundo têm
estado a viver. Pretende-se assim, contribuir para uma melhor compreensão do impacto da
pandemia por COVID-19 nos Profissionais de Enfermagem, procurando evidenciar os riscos e
oportunidades a que estes profissionais têm sido expostos desde o início do surto, bem como o
suporte social e as estratégias de promoção da sua saúde que podem ser desenvolvidas no
contexto da crise e no futuro.
Neste sentido serão exploradas experiências e preocupações vividas por estes
profissionais em contexto hospitalar, partindo de três dimensões temáticas: efeitos
psicológicos; mudanças nas dinâmicas da equipa e no ambiente de trabalho e por fim presença
de stressores percebidos no local de trabalho.
Para a concretização dos objetivos definidos nesta investigação, desenvolveu-se um
estudo qualitativo cuja recolha de testemunhos foi realizada na primeira vaga da pandemia, ou
seja, entre os meses de Março e Julho de 2020. Nesse sentido, desenvolveu-se uma revisão da
literatura mais recente publicada no período entre Março de 2020 e Setembro de 2022, sendo
o método utilizado a análise temática, explorada através da pesquisa de narrativas contidas em
11 testemunhos. Foi recolhida uma segunda amostra constituída por seis enfermeiros no
mesmo período, que se encontravam em funções num hospital distrital nos serviços de
urgência/emergência e urgência COVID, da qual resultou a elaboração de notas sob a forma
de “diário”. Por fim, foi elaborada uma análise transversal das diversas narrativas.
ABSTRACT: This study was developed within the scope of a master's thesis. The relevance of the chosen theme is due in particular to the context that Portugal and the world have been experiencing. It is thus intended to contribute to a better understanding of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Nursing Professionals, seeking to highlight the risks and opportunities to which these professionals have been exposed since the beginning of the outbreak, as well as social support and strategies of health promotion that can be developed in the context of the crisis and in the future. In this sense, experiences and concerns lived by these professionals in a hospital context will be explored, starting from three thematic dimensions: psychological effects; changes in team dynamics and in the work environment and, finally, the presence of perceived stressors in the workplace. In order to achieve the objectives defined in this research, a qualitative study was developed whose collection of testimonies was carried out in the first wave of the pandemic, that is, between the months of March and July 2020. In this sense, a literature review was developed of most recent published in the period between March 2020 and September 2022, the method used being thematic analysis, explored through the research of narratives contained in 11 testimonies. A second sample was collected consisting of six nurses in the same period, who were working in a district hospital in the urgency/emergency and urgency services of COVID, which resulted in the preparation of notes in the form of a “diary”. Finally, a cross-sectional analysis of the various narratives was elaborated.
