Mental Health Concerns of Healthcare Workers During The COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract
This critical literature review discusses the prevalence of
mental health concerns in healthcare workers (HCWs)
during the COVID-19 pandemic. It highlights the
associated reasons and underlying risk factors studied in
this context, along with the psychological interventions
currently being used to help this population. This paper
attempts to describe the experience of moral injury in
HCWs and offers recommendations for mental health
professionals. It also critically evaluates the existing
literature for its strengths and limitations. Finally, the
recommendations are provided based on the shortcoming
of the literature and directions for future research.
