Abstract

Introduction: This study aimed to assess the occupational stress levels among Indonesian nurses and midwives working in Saudi Arabian healthcare settings. Methods: This cross-sectional comparative study assessed occupational stress among Indonesian nurses and midwives working in Saudi Arabia using the Expanded Nursing Stress Scale (ENSS). A total of 166 respondents (85 nurses and 81 midwives) completed the survey from a professional WhatsApp group. A convenience sampling was attempted, and only those who voluntarily responded to the questionnaire were included. The primary dependent variable was occupational stress, while the independent variables included profession (nurse and midwife), age, sex, education level, workplace setting, marital status, and years of experience. The analytical tests used were Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis. Results: Occupational stress among nurses (Mean = 109) and midwives (Mean = 107) was low in psychological, physical, and social environments. Workload was the most stressful factor for both nurses (Mean = 20.44) and midwives (Mean = 18.88). We found a significant difference in the level of stress based on their workplace (p = 0.038) and educational background (p = 0.005). There was no difference in the level of stress between nurses and midwives (p = 0.188). Conclusions: In comparison, either nurses or midwives have a low level of occupational stress, which is related to psychological, physical, and social environments based on ENSS tools. Therefore, optimal healthcare management and policy should be maintained and improved for migrant nurses and midwives to foster better, sustainable healthcare development in the future.

Abstract

The Covid pandemic has ended but health workers, especially nurses in Saudi Arabia, are still experiencing burnout due to high workloads. This study aims to analyze burnout and job satisfaction related to intention to leave among Indonesian nurses in health services in Saudi Arabia. This research used a qualitative method with a case-study approach. The research subjects used purposive sampling with a typical case of 12 Indonesian nurses who worked in health services and terminated their work contracts in Saudi Arabia. This research used data triangulation, source triangulation, and peer debriefing. In-depth interviews conducted at a predetermined place, data analysis follows 7 steps of Colaizzi's analysis. The results showed that burnout was closely related to emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and low appreciation for one's abilities. Indonesian nurses who worked in health services in Saudi Arabia were happy and did not experience burnout. Meanwhile, job satisfaction or nurse satisfaction in dealing with work situations and environments is related to internal factors such as salary and rights to work facilities, while externally, it is related to self-development and professionalism.

Abstract

Indonesian foreign nurses working in Saudi Arabia have not been surveyed regarding workload and job satisfaction in the healthcare setting. Understanding the workload at hospital that influences job satisfaction provides an overview of the nurse’s existence at work. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of workload, and job satisfaction of Indonesian nurses in Saudi Arabia. A cross sectional study using self- administered questionnaire by Nasa Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) was used to analyze the workload, and the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) for the satisfaction. Data were analyzed using descriptive methods and univariate statistics by SPSS version 26. A total of 132 nurses participated in this research. Five departments, including intensive care unit (ICU), emergency department (ER), operating room (OR), hemodialysis (HD), and ward department (WD) reported high workload levels (61-80 points). Job satisfaction in five departments was neutral category, while the ward department showed dissatisfied category. The analysis of nurses' characteristics revealed that the majority were aged 31-40 years old (46.2%), length of work was 1-5 years (54.5%), and worked in the outpatient department (42.4%). The study suggests that healthcare management and policymakers should implement programs to improve job satisfaction and reduce workload, especially for foreign nurses working in critical areas, including the five departments mentioned.

Abstract

Background : Indonesia’s Ministry of Health (IMOH) declared a polio outbreak in 2022, resulting in fourteen polio cases through 2024. As the outbreak response, supplementary immunization activities (SIAs) using the novel oral polio vaccine type 2 (nOPV2) are carried out. Objective : This study aims to determine the prevalence of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) and factors associated with second-dose coverage of nOPV2 in Samarinda, East Kalimantan. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : We conducted a cross-sectional analysis from the AEFI nOPV2 survey conducted by the Samarinda District Health Office (DHO) in 2024. AEFI are characterized by various symptoms, including fever, diarrhea, and other medical complications that occur within 1 to 14 days post-vaccination. The presence of incomplete information in the database served as an exclusion factor. We gathered the children's characteristics, immunization sites, pre- vaccination conditions, and AEFI symptoms. The data was analyzed with chi-square analysis. Results : We analyzed 470 full datasets from a total of 628 survey responses. We identified 56 cases (11.9%) of AEFI after the first dose and 18 cases (5.4%) out of 332 after the second dose among children who got nOPV2 in 2024. Nearly one-third (29.4%) did not receive a second dose of nOPV2. No serious AEFIs were noted. The predominant AEFIs associated with nOPV2 are fever (66.1% and 55.6%) and diarrhea (28.6% and 16.7%). A significant association was found between children with AEFI in the first dose and nOPV2 second-dose uptakes (RR 1.48, CI 1.02-2.78, P < 0.040), with vomiting and nausea being the prominent symptoms influencing the decision (RR 2.16, CI 1.27-3.41, P 0.010). Conclusion/Lesson Learned : The reported prevalence of AEFI was 11.9% for the first dose and 5.4% for the second dose. The majority are mild. A surveillance of mild AEFI and an extensive educational intervention and risk communication should be implemented regarding the risks of nOPV2's AEFI, which may impact adherence to the subsequent dose
