dc.description.abstractThe COVID-19 pandemic has brought unprecedented challenges to global healthcare systems, with frontline medical workers facing immense pressure and strain. This scoping review examines the impact of the pandemic on the mental health of healthcare workers in the post-pandemic period, focusing on studies published from 2021 onwards. Through a systematic literature search, utilizing the Arksey and O'Malley framework, relevant articles were identified from databases including PubMed, Embase, Nazarbayev University Library, and Google Scholar. A total of 20 articles were analyzed, comprising cross-sectional studies, qualitative research, and systematic reviews. The findings reveal a significant prevalence of mental health conditions among healthcare workers post-pandemic, with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), burnout, anxiety, and depression emerging as primary concerns. Factors contributing to mental health challenges include high stress levels, moral dilemmas, and inadequate support systems. The review highlights the importance of implementing interventions to support healthcare workers' mental health, such as regular screening, access to counseling services, and resilience training. Organizational support and policy changes are also crucial to mitigate workplace stressors and foster a supportive environment. Despite the importance of this topic, the available literature on post-pandemic mental health remains limited, emphasizing the need for further research and comprehensive meta-analyses. Addressing the mental health needs of healthcare workers is essential not only for their well-being but also for ensuring the provision of quality patient care.
