Abstract
Psychological suffering of healthcare professionals, during War times, is ignored in literature. While struggling to provide ultimate care, HCP need support and psychological counseling. The purpose of this study was to examine the moderation effect of resilience on the relationship between life satisfaction, depression, and PTSD controlling for the sociodemographic and personal characteristics among on-duty healthcare professionals in Gaza. A convenience sample of 150 on-duty healthcare professionals filled out an online survey. The sample targeted a convenience sample of HCWs who are currently on duty in Gaza. Data collected regrading satisfaction with life, PTSD, depression, and resilience. Data collected from August to end of Sept 2024. Of the sample, 94.7% (n = 146) met criteria of PTSD, 85.3% (n = 128) reported a severe form of depression, 59.3% (n = 89) have a low level of resilience, and 74.7% (n = 112) reported that they are dissatisfied with their life. The analysis showed that resilience has no significant moderation effect on the relationship between psychological factors and PTSD controlling for demographic and personal characteristics as the R2 change of 0.011 in the model was not statistically significant (p = 0.09). Years of experience, age and having mental illness were significant risk factors to develop PTSD. There is a need to provide an urgent psychological counselling to healthcare professionals in Gaza. Online and face-to-face help groups and peer to peer support need to be established.
