Özet:

 Objectives: In Turkey, primary health care services have been tasked with closely monitoring COVID-19 patients and their contacts. This study aimed to assess the heightened anxiety and burnout levels among family health center FHC staff primary health care workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This descriptive epidemiological study did not involve sampling. FHC physicians and primary health care staff in Turkey who voluntarily completed a Google Forms survey shared via social media participated. The survey included demographic data, the Beck anxiety inventory, and the Maslach burnout inventory. Results: Of the participants, 34.6 were from Çanakkale, 19.6 from Diyarbakır, and 18.7 from Edirne. Women constituted 54.2, 46.7 were over 46 years old, and 48.6 had 615 years of professional expe-rience. Additionally, 25.2 smoked, and 41.1 never consumed alcohol. Chronic illnesses were reported by 38.4, and psychological disorders by 15. Anxiety tendencies were observed in 43.9, emotional exhaustion in 48.6, depersonalization in 12.1, and low personal accomplishment in 6.5. Significant relationships were found between anxiety and both emotional exhaustion and depersonalization p0.05, while no relationship was observed with personal accomplishment p0.05. A weak positive correlation was noted between anxiety and both emotional exhaustion and depersonalization r:0,428, p0,0001; r:0,436, p0,0001. Conclusion: Unusual situations like pandemics heighten stress and workload. Preparing healthcare per-sonnel and monitoring their psychological well-being during such crises is crucial.

 Amaç: Ülkemizde birinci basamak sağlık hizmetleri COVID-19 temaslı ve hastalarını yakından takip etmek gibi bir görev yüklenmişlerdir. Bu araştırmada aile sağlığı merkezleri çalışanlarının COVID-19 ile mücade-lede artan anksiyete ve tükenmişlik düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Bu çalışma tanımlayıcı tipte araştırmada örneklem alınmamış olup Türkiyede görevli ve sosyal medya aracılığıyla paylaşılan Google Forms anketini doldurmayı kabul eden aile sağlığı merkezi hekim ve çalışanları çalışmaya katılmıştır. Anket formu temel tanımlayıcı özellikler ile Beck anksiyete ölçeği ve Maslach tükenmişlik ölçeğinden oluşmuştur. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılanların 34,6sı Çanakkaleden ,19,6sı Diyarbakırdan ve 18,7sinin Edir-neden olduğu gözlenmiştir. İncelenenlerin 54,2si kadındır, 46,7si 46 yaş üzerindedir, 48,6sının mesleki tecrübesi 6-15 yıl arasındadır. İncelenen katılımcıların 25,2si sigara kullandıklarını, 41,1i ise hiç alkol kullanmadığını belirtmiştir. Araştırmaya katılanların 38,4ünün kronik rahatsızlığı, 15nin de psikolojik rahatsızlığı bulunduğu görülmüştür. İncelenenlerin 43,9unda anksiyeteye eğilim, 48,6sında duygusal tükenme, 12,1inde duyarsızlaşma, 6,5inde de düşük kişisel başarı puanı görülmüştür. Katı-lımcıların anksiyete durumları ile duygusal tükenmişlik ve duyarsızlaşma arasında istatistiksel olarak an-lamlı ilişki bulunmuştur p0,05. Kişisel başarı durumu ile anksiyete arasında bir ilişki bulunamamıştır p0,05. Anksiyete durumu ile duygusal tükenme ve duyarsızlaşma arasında pozitif yönlü zayıf korelasyon saptanmıştır sırasıyla; r:0,428, p0,0001; r:0,436, p0,0001. Sonuç: Pandemi gibi olağandışı durumlarda sağlık personelinin iş yükü ve stres durumu artmaktadır. Bu yüzden olağandışı durumlara yönelik sağlık personelinin önceden hazırlanmasının ve bu dönemde ruhsal açıdan yakından izlenmesinin gerekli olduğunu düşünüyoruz.
