Abstract

Key predictors of distress for healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic include working long hours, lack of support, feelings of vulnerability or loss of control, and concerns about health of oneself and one’s family. In this Scandinavian study we explore psychosocial work environment in geriatric, medicine, surgery, oncology and intensive care units at hospitals, palliative care units and nursing homes with focus on end-of-life care. The aim was to explore how relocation during the COVID-19 pandemic impacted on self-reported psychosocial work environment among registered nurses and assistant nurses in Sweden and Norway when caring for seriously ill patients.
