Determinants maintaining healthcare personnel’s motivation during COVID-19 pandemic in Uganda

Despite challenges, most HCWs at the Hospital remained motivated. These findings emphasised the importance of technical and psychological support, such as mentoring and effective communication from upper-level supervisors, rather than financial incentives, in maintaining motivation among the HCWs. Comprehensive support systems are essential for sustaining HCWs' motivation during the pandemic, especially in resource-limited settings. Further research should address the long-term mental health effects and enhance HCWs' resilience in future health crises.
