Bem-estar dos profissionais de saúde: O impacto dos programas de bem-estar

Abstract

Os profissionais de saúde enfrentam vários desafios relacionados com as exigências e condições do seu trabalho que resultam em consequências graves no seu bem-estar. A escassez de mão-de-obra, excesso de trabalho e horas extra realizadas e pela dura realidade que encontram nos seus serviços prejudica a sua saúde física e mental. Vários estudos apontam que estes profissionais são dos mais afetados no que toca à saúde mental, com altos níveis de burnout, stress e exaustão, ademais, sentem que as suas organizações não se preocupam ou facilitam recursos para a promoção da sua saúde e bem-estar. Deste modo, o presente estudo visa compreender o impacto dos programas de bem-estar nos profissionais de saúde, aprofundado os fatores que influenciam o bem-estar, as ações das organizações para o bem-estar e os recursos pessoais utilizados pelos profissionais e o que é estes indicam como crítico para melhorar o bem-estar. Neste sentido, foi realizado um estudo qualitativo através de 13 entrevistas semiestruturadas a profissionais de saúde a trabalhar neste setor. Os dados recolhidos foram posteriormente analisados através do software de análise qualitativa MAXQDA. Os resultados indicam que apesar do enfase que tem sido dado às questões da promoção do bem-estar, existe um problema premente: a falta de recursos humanos, o que acaba por aumentar as exigências sentidas. Assim, este problema terá de ser mitigado de forma que seja possível uma boa implementação de programas de bem-estar, com resultados que impactem positivamente os profissionais de saúde.

Healthcare professionals face various challenges related to the demands and conditions of their work, resulting in serious consequences for their well-being. The shortage of workforce, excessive workloads, and overtime, along with the harsh realities they encounter in their services, negatively impact their physical and mental health. Several studies indicate that these professionals are among the most affected when it comes to mental health, experiencing high levels of burnout, stress, and exhaustion. Moreover, they feel that their organizations do not care or provide resources for promoting their health and well-being. Thus, this study aims to understand the impact of wellness programs on healthcare professionals, exploring the factors that influence well-being, the actions taken by organizations for well-being, and the personal resources utilized by professionals, as well as what they identify as critical for improving well-being. In this regard, a qualitative study was conducted through 13 semi-structured interviews with healthcare professionals working in this sector. The collected data were subsequently analysed using the qualitative analysis software MAXQDA. The results indicate that despite the emphasis placed on promoting well-being, there is a pressing issue: the lack of human resources, which ultimately increases the perceived demands. Therefore, this problem must be mitigated to enable the effective implementation of wellness programs, with results that positively impact healthcare professionals.
