Impact of Workplace Social Capital and COVID-19 on the Psychological Distress of Hospital Nurses: A Cross-Sectional Study
Some nurses perceived improvements in workplace social capital owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. Changes in workplace social capital and experiences of discrimination based on COVID-19 were factors affecting nurses' psychological distress. To prepare for future pandemics, it is necessary to examine the deterioration of workplace social capital and discrimination against medical workers caused by COVID-19 and consider strategies to prevent the worsening of nurses' psychological distress.
