Examples

Healthcare workers mental health problems corelate with organisational factors such as work load and exposure to COVID19 patients

Helath care workers are more interested in occupatio al protection, rest and social support the in professional psychological help.

Intervention focus more on addressing individual psycho pathology, which points towords a mismatch between what workers went and need, and the service available to them.

CONCLUSION: Psychological problems are pervassive among healthcare workers during the COVID 19 pandemic . Recieving negetive information and participating infront line work appear to be important risk factors for psychological problems. The psychological health of different health care workers should be protected during the COVID 19 pandemic with timely intervention and proper information feedback.
