ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The concept of resilience has been used as a descriptor for individuals and organizations with the dominant themes of bouncing back and moving forward.AIMS:
To examine the concept of resilience in providers and healthcare teams during pandemic disasters. RESEARCHDESIGN:
Walker and Avant's eight-step concept analysis method. DATA SOURCE CINAHL, EBSCO Host, PubMed, and SCOPUS were searched using the combined terms "resilience" or "resiliency" or "resilient" and "healthcare professionals," or "healthcare worker" or "healthcare team" or "physician" or "nurse" or "doctor" and "pandemic" or "disaster."METHODS:
The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Checklist was used to review the literature and apply findings using the eight-step Walker and Avant method for concept analysis.RESULTS:
Three clusters emerged as attributes of individual resilience that may be applied to healthcare teams in times of pandemic disasters (1) resilience is a dynamic contextual process, (2) resilience stabilizes the team to maintain a routine level of function, and (3) resilience is a catalyst for the actualization of innate or acquired skills and ability within the healthcare team.CONCLUSION:
This analysis suggests that resilience enhances the healthcare team's ability to maintain function during acute changes created by pandemic disasters. Resilience in healthcare teams during pandemics requires future research to explore the phenomenon.Keywords
