Abstract
Introduction: The professional quality of life (ProQOL) is a fundamental aspect of the care providers' working life and plays an important role in monitoring their mental health status and wellbeing. The objective of this study is to explore the level of ProQOL among the Emergency Operating Center workers in the Italian context and to examine the role of both stressors and coping strategies. Health workers from an Italian 118 Emergency Operating Center participated into the research.
Methods: A preliminary cross-sectional study has been performed.
Results: The survey's response rate was 72.04% (n = 67). Results found that Stressors are positively correlated with Burnout and Compassion Fatigue whereas Compassion Satisfaction has a positive correlation with the Task-oriented coping strategy and with the Emotion-oriented strategy.
Conclusions: In conclusion, it is pivotal to implement strategies and solutions that can enhance the levels of satisfaction of Emergency Operating Center workers in order to improve patients care and organizational outcomes.
