SELF-DEHUMANIZATION AMONG HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS IN MOROCCO: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY OF NURSES AND HEALTH TECHNICIANS

Abstract

This study explores the phenomenon of self-dehumanization among nurses and healthcare technicians in Morocco, particularly in the city of Fes. Based on a descriptive cross-sectional quantitative methodology, the survey was conducted using sociodemographic questionnaires and a self-dehumanization scale, applied to a sample of 41 healthcare professionals, from July 15 to September 9, 2024. The study revealed that 65.85% of the participants were women, compared to 34.15% of men, reflecting the dominant gender distribution in the public health sector in Morocco. The results highlight the impact of working conditions on the mental health of healthcare professionals, with a particular focus on self-dehumanization. This dehumanization, often triggered by stressful work environments and high emotional burdens, leads to the treatment of patients in a mechanized, non-human manner. The study calls for a reflection on strategies to promote a more humanized approach to care, reducing dehumanization through appropriate infrastructure, improved communication, and continuous training.

More details will be added soon.
