Sažetak
Introduction Stress at work is an important health problem. No less than 44.6% of workers are exposed to risk factors that have a negative impact on health. In order to better tolerate stressful situations, many take anxiolytics. The aim is to determine the extent of stress, the conditions that exacerbate it, the means of prevention, and the prevalence of anxiolytic use by health professionals. Materials and Methods Quantitative, descriptive cross-sectional study with a sample of 159 health professionals from the General Hospital, Health Center, and Department of Emergency Medicine in Slavonski Brod. Results The majority of health professionals surveyed were satisfied with their lives, but 80.5% found their work stressful, 9.4% sought help due to stress, and 25.8% took anxiolytics to relieve stress, with 43.9% taking anxiolytics several times a month and 5% daily. During work hours, 36.6% of respondents took anxiolytics, and 17.1% felt that it improved the quality of their work that day. 75.6% said that taking anxiolytics helped them to do their work normally. Conclusions Healthcare professionals belong to a profession that is exposed to high levels of stress. Contributing to this stress are shift and night work, a tight work schedule and staff shortages, which is why many work overtime, emergencies, caring for the seriously ill and dying, conflicts, and poor work organization. For all these reasons, one in four occasionally takes anxiolytics to function normally at work. It is necessary to provide adequate psychological support to all who need it.
