Öz

Amaç: Bu araştırma mülteci kamplarına görevlendirilen sağlık çalışanlarının tükenmişlik, depresyon, anksiyete ve stres düzeyleri gibi ruhsal durumları ve bunlarla ilişkili faktörleri değerlendirmek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı-kesitsel olarak tasarlanan bu araştırmanın evrenini bir ilde mülteci kamplarında geçici olarak görevlendirilen sağlık çalışanları oluşturmuştur. Araştırmaya toplam 234 sağlık çalışanı katılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak “Sosyo-demografik Bilgi Formu”, “DAS-21 Ölçeği”, “Maslach Tükenmişlik Envanteri” kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Katılımcıların %64.5’i 31 yaşından küçük, %50.0’ı Paramedik, %31.2’si sınır ötesine geçmiş ve %54.7’si gönüllü olarak kamplarda görevlendirilmiştir. Ulusal Medikal Kurtarma Ekibi olarak görevlendirilen katılımcıların Duygusal Tükenme, Duyarsızlaşma ve Kişisel Başarı puan ortalaması ambulans servisi çalışanı olarak görevlendirilenlere göre yüksek ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ulusal Medikal Kurtarma Ekibi çalışanlarında ve sınır ötesi göreve gidenlerde depresyon oranı istatistiksel olarak daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Sonuç: Bu araştırma ile sınır ötesi göreve gidenlerde depresyon oranının, gönüllü görevlendirilenlerde duygusal tükenmenin daha fazla olduğu, kadınlarda duygusal tükenme, duyarsızlaşma ve anksiyetenin daha fazla olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Objective: This study has been carried out to evaluate the burnout, depression, anxiety and stress levels of healthcare employees temporarily assigned to refugee camps and factors related hereto. Materials and Methods: The population of this descriptive-cross-sectional study consisted of healthcare employees assigned to work temporarily in refugee camps in a certain province. A socio-demographic information form, the DAS-21 scale and the Maslach Burnout Inventory were used in this study as data collection tools. Results: A percentage of 64.5% of the participants was younger than 31 years old, 50.0% was employed as a paramedic, 31.2% had crossed the border and 54.7% was assigned to camps on a voluntary basis. It was determined that the Emotional Exhaustion, Desensitation and Personal Achievement score average of the participants assigned to National Medical Rescue Teams was statistically significant compared to those assigned to ambulance services. The rate of depression was found to be statistically higher in National Medical Rescue Team employees and those who had gone on cross-border missions (p<0.05). Conclusion: On the basis of this study, it was concluded that the rate of depression is higher in those who went on a cross-border mission, that emotional exhaustion was higher in those who had been assigned on a voluntary basis and that emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and anxiety levels were higher in women.
