WITCZAK, Marcus Vinicius Castro; PEREZ, Karine Vanessa  e  RODRIGUES, Makely Ferreira. Impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the experiences of multiprofessional health residents. Psi Unisc [online]. 2022, vol.6, n.1, pp.141-154.  Epub 06-Mar-2026. ISSN 2527-1288.  https://doi.org/10.17058/psiunisc.v6i1.16658.

The COVID19 pandemic imposed an unexpected reality on health services and workers. Misinformation about the causative virus and the development of the disease, the risk of direct exposure, and the resulting fear have brought new challenges to the professionals in their working lives and new sources of suffering and mental illness. The Multiprofessional Residency Programs in Health and the residents are inserted in this context. Thus, this study aimed to identify the impacts of the pandemic on the mental health of multiprofessional health residents. For its development, a survey was conducted with the Multiprofessional Residents of a teaching hospital in the interior of Rio Grande do Sul, collecting data (May and June 2020) in a semi-structured questionnaire. The consent of 20 residents was obtained. The results show high levels of stress impacting self-care. In view of this, moments of psychological listening (to report their fears, insecurities, and emotions) and psychosocial support in the workplace were strategies signaled by residents as important for coping with the pandemic context.
