Úvod: Většina dobrovolníků v hospicových službách zmiňuje, že jim jejich práce přináší radost a smysl. Práce dobrovolníka má ale také svá úskalí v podobě nejasné role v paliativním týmu, omezené pravomoci, bezmoci a negativních emocí spojených se smrtí a umíráním. Cílem studie bylo zjistit, jestli se tyto možné negativní aspekty dobrovolnické práce projevují i v konceptech jako je únava ze soucitu a uspokojení ze soucitu a jestli mají vliv na odchod dobrovolníků ze služeb. Metodika: Provedli jsme průřezové dotazníkové šetření mezi dobrovolníky hospicových zařízení v ČR za období od 18. 11. 2023 do 9. 2. 2024. Do studie byli zařazeni aktivní dobrovolníci lůžkových i mobilních hospicových služeb, kteří se aktivně dostávali do kontaktu s pacienty. Hlavním cílem analýzy bylo zjistit, zda má únava ze soucitu a uspokojení ze soucitu nějakou souvislost s tendencí k odchodu dobrovolníků z hospicových služeb. Dalším cílem bylo zjistit, jakých hodnot dobrovolníci ve zmíněných konstruktech dosahují. Výsledky: V daném období vyplnilo dotazník 88 respondentů z 8 různých krajů ČR. Výsledné skóre uspokojení ze soucitu bylo vysoké, skóre únavy ze soucitu nízké a tendence k odchodu velmi nízká. Mezi skóre uspokojení ze soucitu a tendencí k odchodu byla nalezena nízká až střední negativní korelace.
Introduction Most volunteers in hospice services mention that their work brings them joy and a sense of purpose. However, volunteer work also has its challenges, such as an unclear role within the palliative team, limited authority, helplessness, and negative emotions associated with death and dying. The aim of this study was to determine whether these potential negative aspects of volunteer work are reflected in concepts such as compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction, and whether they further influence volunteers' decision to leave the services. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire survey among volunteers in hospice facilities in the Czech Republic from November 18, 2023, to February 9, 2024. The study included active volunteers from both inpatient and mobile hospice services who were actively engaged with patients. The main objective of the analysis was to examine whether compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction have any connection with the tendency of volunteers to leave hospice services. Another goal was to determine the levels of compassion satisfaction and compassion fatigue among volunteers within the mentioned constructs. Results During the specified period, 88 respondents from 8 different regions of the Czech Republic filled out the questionnaire. The resulting scores for compassion satisfaction and compassion fatigue were generally positive. Similarly, the score for the tendency to leave was positive. A low to moderate negative correlation was found between compassion satisfaction and the tendency to leave.
