Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit your manuscript to this Special Issue of Healthcare, in which we will talk about the health and wellbeing of healthcare providers and health science university students.
This Special Issue will provide an in-depth exploration of the health of health science university students and healthcare providers. Occupational health is a major problem in modern work environments. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), workplace health risks cause occupational diseases and can aggravate other health problems. As a result, the incidence of occupational disorders and problems has increased in workers in recent years. Analyzing different variables related to more common occupational diseases is important in dealing with them efficiently.
For this Special Issue, we hope to receive studies related to health variables among healthcare providers and health science university students, for example, burnout, anxiety, stress, and depression. This Special Issue will also include articles on disorders linked to the work environment and possibly related variables, specifically in relation to burnout syndrome.
We hope to receive not only original studies but also reviews and meta-analyses.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
