THE GOVERNMENT'S EFFORTS TO OVERCOME AND REDUCE HEALTH WORKER STRESS DUE TO BURNOUT DURING PANDEMIC DISRUPTION PERIOD

Abstract

Every country has a responsibility to protect health workers in times of crisis and normal. This study aims to obtain scientific evidence of efforts made to overcome the stress of health workers due to burnout while providing health services in the era of the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic. To obtain research evidence relevant to tackling the problem, the researcher has conducted a series of electronic data collections on several publications that actively discuss health issues during conflict and the stress health workers suffer. To get data that can answer the problem, we have first arrived at the phenomenological approach, namely searching for the broadest possible data to get answers as effective as possible through data evaluation, data criticism, data interpretation, and drawing conclusions that can become highly valid answers. Based on the analysis of the results and discussion of the results, this study was able to solve, among others, the need for support in the form of advice and encouragement along with welfare assistance as well as adequate infrastructure for health safety facilities so that workers do not feel so stressed that they are bored as long as they serve in health centers during the pandemic response. The result can be used to create laws and policies in the future.
