Nowadays, paralel to prolonging life time, illness experience can change life of everyone who takes care of the individual directly or indirectly. Prolonging of this time for patient, simultaneously causes prolonging of the time for the care and treatment providers and them to be with the patient more during illness and suffering process. Caring for chronically ill individuals by getting aware of that they won’t be able to recover completely, causes them to experience various problems called compassion fatigue. Compasion fatigue is described as the natural feeling and behaviour arising from knowing the traumatizing events which a significant other has experienced; as the stress arising from helping or wanting to help a traumatized individual. The aim of this review is to describe compassion fatigue, explain the concepts with which it is related, and by this way to increase the awareness of professionals who work in helping professions.

Günümüzde yaşam süresinin uzamasıyla paralel olarak uzayabilen hastalık deneyimi, bireyle doğrudan ya da dolaylı olarak ilgilenen herkesin yaşamını değiştirmektedir. Hasta birey için bu sürenin uzaması, aynı zamanda bakım ve tedavi sağlayıcı için de sürenin uzamasına ve bu yardım edicilerin hastaların acı çekme ve ölüm süreçlerinde onlarla daha fazla birlikte olmalarına yol açmaktadır. Kronik hastalığı olan bireylere, hiçbir zaman tam olarak iyileşemeyeceklerini fark ederek bakım vermek, bakım vericilerin eşduyum yorgunluğu adı verilen çeşitli sorunlar yaşamalarına neden olmaktadır. Eşduyum yorgunluğu, birey için önemli bir diğer kişinin yaşadığı travmatize edici olayları bilmekten kaynaklanan doğal davranış ve duygu; travmaya uğramış birine yardım etme ya da yardım etmeyi istemekten kaynaklanan stres olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu makalede eşduyum yorgunluğu kavramının tanımının yapılması, ilişkili olduğu kavramların açıklanması, ve bu yolla konu hakkında yardım edici mesleklerde çalışanların farkındalığının arttırılması amaçlanmaktadır.
