1. What changes are prone to physical and mental changes in front-line medical staff? How to prevent and intervene in advance?
As front-line medical staff, they face an invisible enemy, and their psychological pressure is far greater than that of ordinary people at this time. Because they face the confirmed patients directly, they have hidden feelings of Cinema infections or some severely ill patients and critically ill patients, their psychological pressure is very great.
So, medical staff must be mentally prepared. You need to identify and detect your psychological manifestations, not deny this feeling, and to detect what extent and what specific manifestations are there. The first manifestation is fatigue. Because I have to work, I work in protective clothing, which is generally 4 hours, but when I was nervous, I would have 6 to 8 hours, so I would be very tired and nervous. Then at this time, you will feel a state of exhaustion, and your body and mind will be exhausted.
Another prominent manifestation is anxiety. When we did some evaluations in the early stage, we found that the anxiety value of front-line medical staff was relatively high, and the scores and inner needs of need for help and the requirements of the Komiks were very high.
PreviousThere is also a characteristic of Cinema that is lost. The feeling of insomnia is very bad. It not only makes people feel physically and mentally exhausted, but also reduces people’s immunity. Medical staff are very involved in work, and they are still excited when they are resting, which makes them unable to sleep. Many medical staff are prone to this condition and start to have sleep disorders in the early stage, and some are prone to wake up. This is also a more prominent psychological manifestation in the first stage.
So what should I do when a medical worker is anxious? At this time, someone needs to communicate with him to let him express his inner anxiety and fear. Not everyone can go to the battle and go to the front line and be able to remain unshakable. In this case, anxiety, fear, and fear are the basic reaction of people. So you cannot deny yourself and think that you are not good enough; you cannot deny your colleague just because he has this problem. We should accept it, which is a basic principle of self-protection.
In addition, when making psychological interventions for medical staff, you should fully understand what medical staff are worried about, so that you can have a sense of direction and meet their inner needs. Medical staff often have several concerns: First, they are worried about their family’s health and their concerns that they will infect their family members. This should be his main concern; second, they are worried that the elderly at home will not be taken care of, and they are worried that their children will not be not taken care of.omiksMan in charge is also an important psychological conflict.
2. After the epidemic, front-line medical staff feel tired of their occupations. How should they comfort them?
Young, middle-aged, and people who have worked for a long timeKomiks have a different understanding and understanding of their profession. Some people may be sublimated, their work sublimated, and their life sublimated, and they may be able to understand and accept their careers better. Some people also agree with their profession, but when they face this situation, they may have more psychological stress reactions.
From everyone’s performance, we sometimes need to communicate deeply, guide him to think deeply about the meaning of his career and enhance his sense of honor. For example, what is the significance of this profession? What is the meaning of my life? This allows medical staff to sublimate their professions. Of course, each individual has a different understanding of career, and the levels of conversations are also different when communicating. (Text compilation: Guangming.com reporter Xiao Chunfang)
