Abstract

The Swiss Cohort of Healthcare Professionals and Informal Caregivers (SCOHPICA) was created to study the career trajectories, retention intentions, and wellbeing of healthcare professionals (HCPs), addressing challenges such as staff turnover, low job satisfaction and burnout.SCOHPICA is a prospective open cohort. An electronic questionnaire was used to collect data from HCPs across multiple healthcare settings in Switzerland, encompassing the intention to stay in the profession, wellbeing, and various organizational, psychosocial, occupational and sociodemographic determinants.The first (2022) baseline sample included 1707 HCPs from over 20 professions. Notably, 13% did not intend to stay in their profession, with intermediate caregivers (24%), registered nurses (17%) and pharmacists (17%) reporting the highest rates. Pharmacists scored lowest in wellbeing. Across determinants, pharmacists, physicians, and registered nurses reported worse scores for workload and work-life balance. Nursing professions had lower scores in various determinants, including influence at work, staffing and resource adequacy, and possibilities for development.SCOHPICA will provide critical insights on HCPs’ work conditions and experiences, supporting health workforce monitoring and management, and informing policy-making to ensure high-quality healthcare delivery.

卫生工作者面临的挑战：瑞士医疗保健专业人员和非正规护理人员队列（SCOHPICA）的主要发现

瑞士医疗保健专业人员和非正规护理人员队列（SCOHPICA）旨在研究医疗保健专业人员（HCPs）的职业轨迹、留任意愿和福利，以应对人员流失、工作满意度低和职业倦怠等挑战。SCOHPICA 是一项前瞻性开放式队列研究，通过电子问卷收集瑞士多个医疗机构中医疗保健专业人员的数据，包括留职意愿、福利以及各种组织、社会心理、职业和社会人口决定因素。值得注意的是，13% 的人不打算继续从事其职业，其中中级护理人员（24%）、注册护士（17%）和药剂师（17%）的比例最高。药剂师的幸福感得分最低。在各项决定因素中，药剂师、医生和注册护士在工作量和工作与生活平衡方面的得分较低。SCOHPICA将提供有关卫生保健人员工作条件和经验的重要信息，支持卫生保健人员队伍的监测和管理，并为决策提供信息，以确保提供高质量的卫生保健服务。

期刊介绍： ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
