Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Nursing home staff face multiple stresses during the Covid-19 pandemic including personal risk of infection, risk of transmission of the virus to residents and relatives, and risk of witnessing end-of-life scenarios under difficult contexts (absence of families). The hypothesis of this study is that the Covid-19 period is associated with an incidence of more than 30% of post-traumatic stress in nursing home staff.
