In July, SuPer continued to listen to the feelings of its members: More than half of the respondents experienced negative feelings about their own working conditions.
Of the negative feelings about one's own working conditions, disappointment (23%), anger (9%), sadness (6%) and fear (5%) emerged the most. The most common positive emotions were contentment (17%), compassion (5%), joy (5%), and relief (5%).
The effects of emotions on behavior were studied using the scientific algorithm and matrix. The largest group was leavers – 42 percent of responses predicted stagnant behavior. The result reflects the same problem that arose in June in connection with SuPer members ’own work: Negative, crippling feelings are a risk for caregivers to stay in the industry.
In the July survey, nurses' patterns of behavior in relation to their own working conditions are distributed as follows:
Loyals 27%
Passives 20%
Leavers 42%
Adversaries 11%
The survey also examined caregivers ’experiences of authorities' decisions during the corona epidemic. Experiences had become more positive than in June. Contentment (26%) and relief (12%) increased, and disappointment (16%) decreased. Fear (10%) remained broadly unchanged.
The effects of the authorities 'decisions on carers' behavior tended to be positive:
Loyals 34%
Passives 27%
Leavers 32%
Adversaries 7%
The experience of SuPer evoked positive feelings in as many as 83% of the respondents.
In July, almost 4,000 SuPer members responded to a survey conducted in cooperation with NayaDaya Inc.
