ABSTRACT

The increasing number of cases of COVID-19 can affect health workers as a group that tends to have contact with COVID-19 patients at high risk of contracting it. This may affect the psychological aspects of health workers. It is important to explore the various factors that can affect the mental health of health workers who provide health services to patients with COIVD-19. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of perceived organizational support on the psychology of health workers who provide care for COVID-19 patients at RSU. Royal Prima Medan. This Research uses the DASS-42 Questionnaire and the 8-POS Questionnaire to assess mental health and perceptions of hospital support for nurses who provide health services to COVID-19 patients. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant relationship between the perception of hospital support (Perceived Organization Support) on the level of depression (P-value: 0.002; OR [95 % CI]: 5.23 [1.92-14.23]), anxiety (P-value < 0.05; OR [95 % CI]: 12.26 [3.89-38.60]), and stress (P < 0.05; OR [95% CI]: 8.79 [3.03-25.48]) on nurses at the Royal Prima General Hospital, Medan. So it can be concluded that the perception of hospital support for nurses can restore the mental health of nurses who provide health services to COVID-19 patients.
