The FLoWS project
The identification of needs and development of best practice guidance for the psychological support of frontline healthcare workers during and after COVID-19
Progetto FLoWS
L'identificazione dei bisogni e lo sviluppo di linee guida per il supporto psicologico agli operatori sanitari in prima linea durante e dopo COVID-19
Questo progetto si propone di individuare linee guida e raccomandazioni per gli specialisti e i manager della salute mentale che hanno il compito, nelle varie fasi della pandemia, di sostenere i lavoratori sanitari di prima linea che affrontano situazioni di disagio psicologico causato dell’emergenza sanitaria COVID-19. Chiediamo a operatori sanitari in Irlanda ed in Italia di contribuire a questo progetto, per poter costruire un quadro diversificato delle esperienze delle persone che hanno lavorato durante il picco della pandemia.
This project seeks to identify best-practice guidance for mental health specialists and managers tasked with supporting frontline healthcare workers struggling with psychological distress due to the COVID-19 crisis, at the various stages of the pandemic.
We will be asking frontline healthcare workers in Ireland and Italy to contribute to this project, to build a diverse picture of people's experiences working through the peak of the pandemic. If you are a frontline healthcare worker, you can contribute by completing a short questionnaire online, or by scheduling an interview with one of our researchers - or both if you want to!
This work is funded by a Health Research Board - Irish Research Council COVID-19 Rapid Response Grant and has received ethical approval from the committees of NUI Galway, University of Milan Bicocca, and Galway University Hospital
