Amaç: Bu çalışma Covid-19 hastalarına bakım veren hemşirelerin mesleki yaşam kalitesi ve bakım deneyimlerinin belirlenmesi amacı ile yapıldı.

Materyal ve Metot: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipte olan bu araştırmanın örneklemini, salgının yayılımına göre ilk sırada yer alan İstanbul'da (Türkiye) çalışan 181 hemşire oluşturdu.

Bulgular: 1-4 yıl arası çalışan, haftada 3 ve üzeri nöbet tutan, covid 19 servisinde çalışan, pandemi süresince 100 ve üzeri hastaya bakım veren hemşirelerin mesleki tatmin puanları daha yüksektir. Lisans mezunlarının, 60 saat ve üstü çalışanların ise, merhamet yorgunluk puanlarının yüksek olduğu saptandı. Çocuk sahibi olmayanların, lise mezunlarının, haftada 60 saat ve üzeri çalışanların, haftada 3 ve üzeri nöbet tutanların, acil serviste ve 100 ve üzeri hasta bakanların, mesleki yaşam kalitesi ölçeği puan ortalamaları yüksek çıkmıştır.

Sonuç: Covid-19 pandemi sürecinde hemşirelerin manevi yorgunluk ve tükenmişlik düzeylerinin alarm verdiği, sürecin devam etmesi durumunda artarak devam edebileceği ve ruh sağlıklarının bozulacağı öngörülmektedir. Hemşire yöneticilerin ve liderlerin iş yükü ve çalışma koşullarında iyileştirme, hemşireler ve klinikler arasında rotasyon, stresle baş etme yöntemlerinin öğretilmesi mesleki yaşam kalitesini artırmada yararlı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
