Résumé

La pandémie de COVID-19 a fait payer un lourd tribut aux travailleurs de la santé, qui ont dû travailler dans des moments de grand défi et de pénurie, ainsi que de risque pour eux-mêmes, tout en continuant à fournir des soins aux autres. Ce désir de soulager la souffrance d'autrui expose les travailleurs de la santé à un risque accru de fatigue de la compassion, une réponse de stress traumatique qui peut se développer en soutenant les autres dans leur souffrance émotionnelle et en essayant de soulager cette douleur. Le risque accru pour cette vaste population pose un défi aux praticiens de carrière, qui auront besoin de moyens efficaces pour soutenir ces travailleurs dans leur guérison. Cet article traite de la conceptualisation de l'usure de compassion à travers une lentille d'engagement professionnel, et propose l'utilisation du modèle de développement de carrière centré sur l'espoir comme moyen de soutenir le réengagement. Grâce à la réinstallation de l'espoir, le sentiment d'agence et d'accomplissement devient à nouveau possible.
