Popis: UVOD: Pojava novog oblika pandemije ukazala je na važnu i zahtjevnu ulogu medicinskih sestara i tehničara u održavanju zdravlja ljudi i to posebice u izvanrednim situacijama globalnih javnozdravstvenih kriza i problema. Poznavanje karakteristika posla kao i praćenje profesionalne predanosti zaposlenika važno je u svrhu praćenja i poboljšanja kvalitete pružene skrbi. CILJ: Ispitati karakteristike posla i profesionalnu predanost zaposlenih medicinskih sestara i tehničara u Republici Hrvatskoj tijekom COVID-19 pandemije. MATERIJALI I METODE: Provedeno je presječno istraživanje uz pomoć on line ankete distribuirane potencijalnim ispitanicima putem društvenih mreža.

Ispitanici uglavnom izražavaju (97,17%) da skrb prema bolesniku pružaju kao prema članu svoje obitelji. Polovica ispitanika (50,7%) napustila bi profesiju ako se ne bi slagala sa nadređenim ili kolegama, a nešto manji udio (34,4%) ostao bi u sestrinskoj profesiji unatoč nemogućnosti profesionalnog napredovanja. Ispitanici (70%) smatraju kako u poslu imaju umjerenu autonomiju, a 74,03 % ispitanika kako tijekom rada koristi složenu sofisticiranu opremu. Ispitanici su uglavnom suglasni (78.46%) da da njihov posao utječu povratne informacije od drugih osoba te niti jedan ispitanik (0) nije smatrao da sestrinski posao nije važan.
