“…As a result, students may become more fearful, and diseases may spread more rapidly. The lack of safety precautions in hospitals and the intern nurses' insufficient experience in a COVID-19 environment could further exacerbate these fears [ 34 , 35 ].…”

Background The distinctive circumstances and socio-cultural context in Egypt make it crucial to explore the psychological well-being of intern nurses amid the COVID-19 pandemic, with a specific focus on obsessive-compulsive symptoms. This study aimed to investigate the influence of fear of COVID-19 on obsessive-compulsive symptoms among intern nurses. Methods A cross-sectional survey involving 375 randomly recruited intern nurses was conducted. Data collected included the Fear of COVID-19 Scale and the Short Version of the Arabic Obsessive-Compulsive Scale. Results A significant relationship was found between the fear of COVID-19 and the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms among the participants (r = 0.472, p = 0.000). A stepwise regression analysis indicated that the fear of COVID-19, living in urban regions, frequency of COVID-19 infection, and increased number of infected family members may contribute to the severity of Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms with adjusted R2 value = 27.5%. Conclusion The findings suggest that the COVID-19 pandemic has had significant psychological impacts on newly qualified nurses during their internship training period, including the manifestation of mental health symptoms such as Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms. It was observed that urban residents, intern nurses with recurrent COVID-19 infections, and those with more infected family members exhibited a higher severity of OCS. These findings underscore the need for further research to investigate additional factors that may influence OCS severity.

“…It was stressful to focus on completing their training programs in time while their lives and those of family members were at risk. Studies support this, showing students claim that due to the high‐stress levels they face in clinical rotations during the pandemic, they may end up giving less effective care to patients on a psychological or emotional level (Grande et al, 2021; Gül et al, 2022; Ulenaers et al, 2021). It was also challenging for students as university internship departments insisted they continue training without regard to their welfare and the prevailing circumstances.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic produced challenges and troubling issues in Saudi Arabia and worldwide. During the height of the pandemic, the psychological status of nursing students was complicated by challenges that affected their educational future. We used qualitative approach to explore the psychological status of 20 Saudi nursing students from Nursing College in their internship program during the COVID-19 pandemic by investigating their perceptions, experiences, and challenges. Thematic analysis methods were used to present the data as themes and subthemes. Themes that emerged during interviews revealed: Interns' experiences from the outbreak; Perceptions of students toward COVID-19; Mental distress associated with the situation; Level of support from either or both university authorities or hospital education and training departments; Financial challenges; and Readiness to complete a nursing internship. COVID-19 presented several challenges to Saudi nursing students in internship year including psychological distress in several aspects such as fear of infection for themselves and their families. However, this study findings do not apply to all nursing students as it only included nursing interns actively engaged in clinical practice. Additional studies are required to examine how the clinical practice of internships varied across the country during any epidemic situation.

“…Beberapa hal yang membuat perawat yang merasakan stres jika mengetahui hasil laboratorium dari pasien yaitu Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) swab pasien suspect COVID-19 yang hasilnya adalah positif. Stres kerja adalah kondisi dimana ketegangan yang mampu untuk mempengaruhi proses berpikir, emosi dan juga kondisi dari seseorang (Gül et al, 2022).
