Stress lié au travail dans l’unité d’oncologie d’un hôpital privé de soins tertiaires de Karachi, au Pakistan : témoignages d’infirmières
Abstract
Les infirmières qui évoluent dans des centres de cancérologie sont susceptibles de vivre du stress lié au travail. La présente étude propose une exploration qualitative des points de vue des infirmières sur le stress généré par leur travail dans une unité d’hospitalisation en oncologie au Pakistan. Une analyse thématique de neuf entrevues détaillées a permis de faire ressortir trois thèmes : facteurs de stress liés au travail, conséquences du stress et stratégies d’atténuation. Le stress ressenti par les infirmières par rapport à leurs patients serait principalement causé par les hospitalisations de longue durée, les pronostics peu encourageants et l’exposition quotidienne à la souffrance pendant de longues périodes. Sur le plan organisationnel, le stress est alimenté par un taux de roulement et un ratio patients-infirmière élevés ainsi que le besoin de soutien de la part de la direction. Les stratégies mises en place pour aider les infirmières comprennent une séance pour faire le bilan après les situations difficiles et des séances de formation sur les mécanismes d’adaptation.
