Summary: | The Covid-19 epidemic has been spreading
in China and all over the world. This circumstance
has brought not only the threat of death from
infection but also distressing psychological pressure
to the community as well as healthcare staff. We
sampled healthcare staff from one of the health
premises in the capital city using purposive sampling.
This study explored the uneasy circumstances
affecting healthcare workers when being assigned to
work during the Covid-19 disaster. The themes
documented in the study are as follows: “Fearful of
getting the disease”; “Terrified: I may spread the
disease to my family and others”; and “Our job
sacrifice that the public is required to know”. The
study emphasizes the value of understanding the
alarming impacts of the crisis which might present
insightful information for society. |
