Da saúde ao adoecimento: a dupla jornada de trabalho dos profissionais de enfermagem

Abstract

This course conclusion work was developed within the theme "From health to illness: the double workday of nursing professionals", aiming to understand the dynamics imposed on the work relationship of nursing professionals, which contribute to physical and psychological exhaustion. The general objective was: To understand the repercussions on the health of nursing professionals with double working hours. With that, two specific objectives were generated: 1. To verify the damages that the excessive workload can cause in these professionals; 2. Demonstrate the difficulties and problems of nursing professionals in a double shift regime and the illness caused by this dynamic. The methodology used was a systemic review through a study and bibliographic survey in the SCIELO and LILACS databases. Through this study it can be seen that the Nursing professional is inserted in patterns of double working hours, which cause illness, excessive stress and risk of accidents for these individuals, whether in the professional or family field. We can conclude that there is a failure in the process between being aware of these issues and developing public policies that make it possible to value this professional and their care in the individual field, one of the possibilities is to listen to the category so that it is possible to build institutions and dynamics of more human work, whether for the professional or for the person being assisted.
