1. What changes are prone to physical and mental changes in front-line medical staff? How to conduct early prevention and Komiks intervention?
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 confirmed patients, hidden infected people, or some severely ill patients and critically ill patients, they are under great psychological pressure. Therefore, medical staff should 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, and I wear 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 are exhausted.
Another prominent manifestation is anxiety. When we were doing some evaluations in the early stage,It is found that the anxiety value of front-line medical staff is relatively high, and the scores and inner needs of help are very high.
Another characteristic of early stage is insomnia. 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 dedicated at work and are still excited when they are resting, which makes them unable to sleep. Many medical staff are prone to this condition, and they start to have sleep disorders in the early stage, and some are prone to wake up. This is also a prominent psychological manifestation in the first stage.
Komiks 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 battlefield and go to the front line to achieve a state of unwavering pressure on Mount Tai. In this case, anxiety, fear, and fear are present. This is the basic reaction of people. So you cannot deny yourself and think that you cannot do it; 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 they can have a sense of direction and meet their inner needs. There are several common concerns among medical staff: First, worrying about the health of their family and worrying that they will be transmitted to their family members. This should be his most important concern; Second, worrying that no one will take care of the elderly at home and that no one will care about the children is also an important psychological conflict.
2. After the epidemic, front-line medical staffHow should Babaylan be comforted if you feel burnout about your career?
The understanding and understanding of careers of young people, middle-aged people, and people who have worked for a long time are different. Some people may have obtained Babaylan sublimation, sublimation of work, and sublimation of life, 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 experience more psychological stress.
From everyone’s performance, we sometimes need deep communication at the Komiks level to guide him to think deeply about the meaning of his career and enhance his sense of honor. KomiksFor 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, everyone has a different understanding of career, and the levels of conversations are also different when communicating. (Text compilation: Guangming.com reporter BabaylanXiao Chunfang)
