A REVIEW OF STRATEGIES IMPLEMENTED BY THE HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND THE HOSPITALS TO REDUCE STRESS AMONG HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS DURING THE COVID-19 OUTBURST

Abstract

Global healthcare systems undergo unprecedented strain as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and healthcare professionals (HCPs) are facing high levels of stress, anxiety, and burnout. The methods of coping deployed by healthcare providers throughout the pandemic are examined in this article, emphasizing organizational, social, and personal remedies. We discuss how these methods helped mitigate the pandemic's psychological effects on healthcare providers, the significance of institutional support, and lessons for future crises based on a review of studies conducted between 2020 and 2023. The findings emphasize how important it is to promote resilience, offer mental health services, and carry out comprehensive modifications to strengthen ways of coping with probable health issues in the future.
