These health care workers are at increased risk for experiencing mood and trauma-related disorders, including posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In this concept article, strategies are recommended for individual health care workers and hospital leadership to aid in mitigating the risk of PTSD, as well as to build resilience in light of a potential second surge of COVID-19. | Type of material: | Journal Article | Publisher: | Cambridge University Press | Journal: | Disaster medicine and public health preparedness | Start page: | 1 | End page: | 4 | Copyright (published version): | 2020 Society for Disaster Medicine and Public Health | Keywords: | Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); Brain disorders; Behavioral and Social Science; Mental health; Anxiety disorders; Clinical research; Prevention; Resilience; COVID-19; Coronavirus | DOI: | 10.1017/dmp.2020.371 | Language: | en | Status of Item: | Peer reviewed | ISSN: | 1935-7893 | This item is made available under a Creative Commons License: | https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ie/ |
