Participate in the survey of prof. Dr. Nere Zivlak Radulović - Mental health in the situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic

For the past few months, we have been faced with a new situation for all of us. The pandemic of the COVID 19 virus is a new phenomenon for medical workers around the world. Its aggressive approach and rapid expansion further complicates the situation.

In a very short period of time, the population received a lot of warning information about the dangers brought by the pandemic. Introducing a state of emergency, isolation measures, obligation to wear masks and gloves, restricted movement, etc. they created fear and uncertainty among the population because this is a situation we have not encountered before.

At the same time, the increase in requirements for preserving physical health is increasingly evident. When it comes to mental health, the World Health Organization and the professional public state that "There is no health without mental health."

Professional teams, as in all crisis situations, should also be prepared to meet this situation and provide adequate psychological responses to those who need it. In public mental health, the main psychological impact, to date, is increased rates of fear or anxiety. Given physical distancing measures, quarantines and their effects on many people's usual activities, routines or livelihoods, an increase in loneliness, depression, harmful use of alcohol and drugs, and self-harm or suicidal behavior is expected.

In this regard, we have prepared several basic questions for you, through which it is possible to determine the impact of the pandemic on individual people so far.

By clicking on the word survey you can answer the questions. The survey is anonymous. Thank you.
