Session

Medicine and Nursing

Description

This study addresses issues of the impact of the night shift in the emotional state of nurses at work at the Main Family Medicine Center in Rahovec. We used a linear model that links work role and social factors, anxiety depression, and self-esteem. This research was conducted with 24 nurses, where 12 nurses were interviewed during the night shift and 12 nurses during the day shift. Of these, 6 are male or 25%, and 18 are female or 75%. The lowest age of nurses was 32 years, while the highest was 54 years. This study aims to identify scientific evidence on the occurrence of changes in the emotional state of nurses working on night shifts associated with adverse physical and psychological health outcomes, such as poor quality of work and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and self-esteem. The aim of the study is to compare the quality of work, as well as the symptoms of the emotional state of nurses working in the night shift with those who work in the day shift and to investigate the relationship between work quality and the symptoms of the emotional state of nurses. In addition, we will assess the prevalence and accompanying factors of depression, anxiety, and self-esteem among mental health nurses working at the MFMC in order to identify independent predictors of mental health disorders.
