[Personal Resources of Geriatric Nursing Staff - Results of a Cross-Sectional Study].

OBJECTIVES
Geriatric nursing staff are exposed to high workloads, which often lead to stress, incapacity to work and early retirement. Personal resources can help deal with work demands and can have a positive effect on health. To design tailored interventions, this study aims to identify personal resources of staff and its impact on stress levels.


MEASURES
Data on 195 geriatric nurses (87.4% female, 40.1±12.2 years) were collected using a set of validated questionnaires consisting of Slesina questionnaire, Nordic Questionnaire, SF-12, personal resources (according to WHO criteria), AVEM questionnaire and the SSCS scale of the TICS questionnaire. According to the SSCS scale, nursing staff were divided into stressed and non-stressed. To further investigate potential factors influencing the development of stress, a four-step regression analysis was carried out.


RESULTS
Non-stressed geriatric nursing staff felt less burdened by work-related stress factors, had fewer physical complaints, had higher physical (p<0.001) and mental well-being (p <0.001), better personal resources and healthier work-related behavior and experience. The regression analysis showed that personal resources such as satisfaction with health status, nutritional behavior, frequency of being calm and relaxed, frequency of being full of energy as well as the stress level can improve physical and mental well-being, but cannot decrease the emergence of stress in case of unhealthy work coping behavior (R²=0.760).


CONCLUSION
When developing stress prevention interventions, the focus should be on strengthening personal resources. In addition, individual work-related behavior and experience patterns should be taken into account.
