ABSTRACT. Despite the relevance of psychological well-being of COVID-19 medical staff, only limited research has been conducted on this topic. Using and replicating data from Bain & Company, BMA, CHCF, CMA, MedPage Today, NNU, Nursing Times, and Pew Research Center, I performed analyses and made estimates regarding how healthcare workers are experiencing and coping with the COVID-19 crisis. The results of a study based on data collected from 720 respondents provide support for my research model. Using the structural equation modeling and employing the probability sampling technique, I gathered and analyzed data through a self-administrated questionnaire.
