Nurses' health and work experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic in Swedish prehospital and hospital care: a deductive content analysis through the lens of the swAge model.

Working as a nurse offers job security but also poses risks for mental health issues. This study aims to explore factors and processes that affected health and work experiences among nurses in Sweden during the COVID-19 pandemic. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 14 nurses from high COVID-19 patient load areas (ambulance, emergency departments, ICU, infection wards, and specialized COVID-19 wards).

Meetings are an Important Prerequisite for Flourishing Workplace Relationships.

Relationships among colleagues, managers, and care recipients are mutually important, and need to be highlighted in workplace health promotion. The aim was to explore prerequisites for flourishing workplace relationships in a municipal healthcare setting for old people. As part of this process, we explored the staff's suggestions on how work relationships could be improved.

Workplace relationships impact self-rated health: A survey of Swedish municipal health care employees.

Background: The impact of positive social relationships on the health of municipal employees in the elder care sector in Sweden needs further examination.

Objective: To explore the association between health and relationships among elderly care employees using a salutogenic perspective.

Method: Survey of all employees (n = 997) in special housing, home care and Disabled Support and Services in a Swedish municipality.

Resources for work-related well-being: A qualitative study about healthcare employees' experiences of relationships at work.

Aims And Objectives: To explore municipal healthcare employees' experiences of relationships with care recipients and colleagues. The specific research questions were when do the relationships enhance well-being, and what prerequisites are needed for such relationships to occur?

Background: Employees in health and social care for older people often depict their work in negative terms, and they often take a high number of sick leaves. Despite the heavy workload, other employees express well-being at work and highlight social relationships as one reason for this.
