Workshop Manajemen Stres pada Perawat Pelayanan Kesehatan di Masa Pandemi Covid-19 di Indonesia

Abstract

The concept of health according to the World Health Organization (WHO) is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and free from disease or infirmity or disability. However, the reality is that health workers, especially nurses, have not been able to fulfill their health and safety protection from various exposures, especially psychosocial, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. The purpose of the Stress Management Workshop is to overcome stress on nurses who work in health services, they must be physically and mentally healthy, especially during the Covid- 19 pandemic. This activity was initiated by research and community service institutions at Universitas Kristen Krida Wacana and received support from the Indonesian National Nurses Association (INNA), the Association of Indonesian Occupational Specialists and the Pancasila Earthing Movement. The method is carried out online using a zoom cloud meeting with 100 nurses from various health care centers in Indonesia. The activity is divided into several sessions, the first is the presentation from the resource person about the condition of nurses in Indonesia and stress management. The second session was divided into small groups, to train themselves in stress management accompanied by an instructor. The third session in which nurses gathered again in plenary for discussion and evaluation. The results of the evaluation showed that all participants gave “Good” and “Excellent” scores; except for one person who rated “Enough”. The participants hope that similar events could be held back and on holidays. The main obstacle is the absence of the nurse working time to coincide with this event.
