Social support, financial status, and depression among French healthcare workers one year after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic

This study suggests that one year after the start of the pandemic, factors associated with depressive symptoms were related to social support and financial situation, unlike at the beginning of the pandemic when working conditions and exposure to COVID-19 were more studied and emphasized. These findings highlight the importance of considering the social determinants of health in studies and interventions aimed at improving the mental health of HCWs, and not just their working conditions.

Abstract

This study suggests that one year after the start of the pandemic, factors associated with depressive symptoms were related to social support and financial situation, unlike at the beginning of the pandemic when working conditions and exposure to COVID-19 were more studied and emphasized. These findings highlight the importance of considering the social determinants of health in studies and interventions aimed at improving the mental health of HCWs, and not just their working conditions.
