Abstract
Amaç: Hekimlerin iş yaşamlarında karşılaştıkları sorunların başında maruz kaldıkları şiddet olayları yer almaktadır. Çalışmamızın amacı,
hekimlerin işyerlerinde uğradıkları şiddetin sıklığını ve özelliklerini belirlemek ve şiddete uğramanın hekimlerin iş doyumu, intihar olasılığı ve
tükenmişlik düzeyleriyle ilişkisini belirlemektir.
Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı özellikte ve kesitsel olarak planlanan bu çalışmamıza İstanbul ilinin Pendik ilçesinde görev yapmakta olan 418 gönüllü
hekim katılmıştır. Veriler anket yoluyla toplanmıştır. Katılımcılara, sosyodemografik bilgiler ve maruz kalınan şiddet ile ilgili soruları içeren
anket, Minnesota İş Doyum Ölçeği, İntihar Olasılığı Ölçeği ve Maslach Tükenmişlik Ölçeği uygulanmıştır.
Bulgular: Katılımcıların %58,4’ünün son bir sene içerisinde şiddete uğradığı ve şiddete uğramada cinsiyet, yaş, ünvan, çalışılan kurum, çalışma
yılı ve çalışılan bölüm özelliklerinin anlamlı farklılık oluşturduğu görülmüştür. Son bir sene içerisinde şiddete maruz kalan hekimlerin maruz
kalmayanlara göre; duygusal tükenme, duyarsızlık ve intihar olasılığı düzeylerinin daha yüksek olduğu, iş doyumu ve kişisel başarı düzeylerinin
ise daha düşük olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
Sonuç: Sağlık çalışanlarına ve hekimlere yönelik şiddet olaylarını önlemek ve olası etkilerini azaltmak için, uygulanan sağlık politikalarında
değişikliğe gidilmesi, çalışma koşullarının iyileştirilmesi, başta aciller olmak üzere sağlık ortamının yeniden düzenlenmesi ve Türk Tabipleri
Birliği’nin yıllardır dile getirdiği caydırıcı bir yasa çıkartılmalıdır. Ayrıca, sağlık çalışanlarına şiddet konusunda eğitimleri ve sürekli tıp eğitimleri
boyunca “sağlıkta şiddet” dersleri konulmalı, medyanın ve devletin desteği ile halkın sağlık personeline şiddet konusunda farkındalığı artırılmalı
ve özellikle yöneticilerin mesleği itibarsızlaştırıcı söylemlerden kaçınması gerektiği vurgulanmalıdır.
Objective: One of the biggest problems that physicians face in their work life is the violence that they are exposed to. This study aims to determine the frequency and characteristics of the violence experienced by physicians in the workplace and to determine how the exposure to violence affects physicians’ job satisfaction, suicide risk, burnout levels. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study with descriptive characteristics. Four hundred-eighteen volunteer physicians who work in Pendik district of İstanbul city participated in our study. Data was collected by surveys. The questionnaires distributed to the participants were reviewed with the literature and consisted of sociodemographic information, questions about violence, Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale, Suicide Probability Scale, Maslach Burnout Scale. Results: It was observed that 58.4% of physicians were exposed to workplace violence during the last year and there was a significant difference in terms of gender, age, title, institution, duration of work and department. Physicians who suffered violence in the workplace during the last year; emotional exhaustion, insensitivity and suicide probability levels were higher, job satisfaction and personal success levels were lower than physicians who didn’t suffer. Conclusion: In order to prevent violence against health workers and physicians and to reduce their possible effects, changes in the health policies implemented, improvement of working conditions, reorganization of the health environment, especially in emergencies, and a deterrent law that the Turkish Medical Association has been expressing for years should be enacted. In addition, “violence in health” lessons should be given to healthcare professionals during their education on violence and continuous medical education, public awareness of violence against healthcare personnel should be increased with the support of the media and the state, and it should be emphasized that managers should avoid discrediting the profession
