Abstract

Most countries in the world have not been prepared for COVID - 19 pandemic, so there is a need to analyze the strategies to measure our healthcare workers’ preparedness for preventing healthcare workers (HCWs) from becoming victims of COVID-19. This systematic literature review is for reviewing the various assessment tools used to measure the preparedness of healthcare workers for COVID - 19 in the time of pandemic of COVID-19 (2019 November - June 2021). During this time, we analyzed how the researchers defined and constructed the assessment tool for measuring the preparedness of healthcare workers for COVID-19. We used Scopus, Proquest, Pubmed, and Willey online library databases with search themes healthcare porkers, Preparedness, COVID-19, and assessment. Thirty-three studies measured HCWs’ preparedness for COVID-19 from November 2019 to 10 June 2021. Most studies were done in developing Nations (N=22). Almost all of the studies were Cross-sectional studies with questionnaires as their primary instrument. The definition of preparedness varied among these studies. However, all of them agreed that the tool for measuring the preparedness of HCWs for COVID-19 was constructed with more than one measurement aspect.

Bahasa Abstract

Sebagian besar negara di dunia belum siap menghadapi pandemi COVID - 19, sehingga perlu dilakukan analisis strategi untuk mengukur kesiapan tenaga kesehatan kita dalam mencegah tenaga kesehatan menjadi korban COVID-19. Tinjauan literatur sistematis ini untuk meninjau berbagai alat penilaian yang digunakan untuk mengukur kesiapan petugas kesehatan untuk COVID - 19 di masa pandemi COVID-19 (November 2019 - Juni 2021). Selama ini, kami menganalisis bagaimana para peneliti mendefinisikan dan menyusun alat penilaian untuk mengukur kesiapan petugas kesehatan menghadapi COVID-19. Kami menggunakan database perpustakaan online Scopus, Proquest, Pubmed, dan Willey dengan tema pencarian petugas kesehatan, Kesiapsiagaan, COVID-19, dan penilaian. Tiga puluh tiga studi mengukur kesiapan petugas kesehatan terhadap COVID-19 dari November 2019 hingga 10 Juni 2021. Sebagian besar studi dilakukan di negara berkembang (N=22). Hampir semua penelitian adalah penelitian Cross-sectional dengan kuesioner sebagai instrumen utamanya. Definisi kesiapsiagaan bervariasi di antara studi-studi ini. Namun, semuanya sepakat bahwa alat ukur kesiapan petugas kesehatan menghadapi COVID-19 dibangun dengan lebih dari satu aspek pengukuran
