Abstract

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented changes to every aspect of life and impacted the resilience level of many healthcare professionals in the hospital environment, especially nurses caring for COVID-19 patients. The pandemic crisis has placed a huge mental and physical burden on nurses caring for COVID-19 patients. In addition, nurses also have to face psychological changes and fear of infection from patients as well as hospital staff. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, a level of personal resilience can help nurses effectively endure stressors caused by the pandemic. Objectives: To determine the resilience level and related factors of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients at hospitals in Binh Dinh. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study on 180 nurses caring for COVID-19 patients at hospitals in Binh Dinh. Results: The average resilience level score of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients was 72.89. The results of this study showed that gender (p<0.001), age (p<0.05), work experience (p<0.05), and education level (p<0.05) had a relationship significantly associated with resilience scores of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients. Conclusion: The resilience level scores of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients were low. Resilience training programs and increased knowledge of how to work in critical situations must be implemented for nurses to achieve greater resilience levels in stressful situations.
