12H30 – 13H30 – VIRTUAL FORMAT
Over 1700 healthcare professionals were surveyed during the 1st data collection of the SCOHPICA national cohort. In this talk, we will explore in more detail the socio-professional data gathered and investigate their relationship with well-being and turnover intention. We will also examine how various factors such as workload, available resources, meaning of work, burnout or recognition at work, among others, are associated with professionals’ intention to stay in the profession and well-being. These findings may open up promising pathways for enhancing the satisfaction and retention of healthcare professionals in Switzerland.

Besoin et offre en relève dans le domaine des soins: éclairage du rapport national sur le personnel de santé 2021
Dans le cadre de la série de colloques de la cohorte SCOHPICA (Swiss COhort of Health Professionals and Informal CAregivers), nous avons le plaisir de vous inviter à la conférence modérée par Prof Annie Oulevey Bachmann:
Thème:
Dans son troisième rapport national, l’Obsan fournit une estimation des besoins en personnel de soins et d’accompagnement à l’horizon 2029. Pour ces analyses, on considère non seulement l’évolution des besoins de la population mais également les départs à la retraite et sorties précoces de la profession. Grâce à l’intense activité de formation de ces dernières années, le taux de couverture des besoins de relève s’est amélioré mais un écart conséquent persiste entre l’offre et les besoins pour le personnel infirmier.
Intervenante:
Dre Clémence Merçay, Cheffe de projet scientifique, Obsan – CH.
