Abstract

Objective: The study aimed to investigate the relationship between job satisfaction and professional self-esteem levels of family medicine practitioners working in Family Health Center. Materials and Methods: Between April 2021 and April 2022, 128 family physicians who volunteered from 155 family physicians working in family health centres in Giresun province were included in the study. The socio-demographic descriptive form, the Minnesota Job Satisfaction and Occupational Self-Esteem Scales were administered face-to-face and online (via WhatsApp groups and e-mail communities). Results: There was no significant relationship between job satisfaction and its sub-dimensions with age, gender, marital status, specialisation status, physical conditions of the Family Health Center, total years of practice and years of training in family medicine (p>0.05). The mean level of occupational self-esteem was 112.48. It was found to be significantly positively correlated with age, total years of practice, years of family medicine practice and average number of patients seen (p=0.05, p=0.004, p=0.004, p=0.004, p=0.009, respectively). Conclusion: Professional self-esteem levels increase as professional age, total years of profession, and total years of working in family medicine increase.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Aile Sağlığı Merkezi'nde görev yapan aile hekimliği uygulayıcılarının iş doyumları ile mesleki benlik saygısı düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkinini araştırmak amaçlanmıştır Materyal ve Metot: Nisan 2021- Nisan 2022 tarihleri arasında Giresun ilinde aile sağlığı merkezlerinde görev yapan 155 aile hekiminden gönüllü olan 128 aile hekimi çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Sosyo-demografik tanımlayıcı form, Minnesota İş Doyum ve Mesleki Benlik Saygısı Ölçekleri yüz yüze ve online (whatsApp grupları, e-posta toplulukları aracılığıyla) olarak uygulandı. Bulgular: İş doyumu ve alt boyutları ile yaş, cinsiyet, medeni durum, uzmanlık durumu, Aile Sağlığı Merkezinin fiziki koşulları, toplam çalışma yılı ve aile hekimliği çalışma yılı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmamıştır (p>0,05). Mesleki benlik saygısı düzeyi ortalaması 112,48 bulunmuş olup yaş, toplam meslek yılı, aile hekimliğinde çalışma süresi ve ortalama bakılan hasta sayısı ile anlamlı pozitif ilişkili bulunmuştur (sırasıyla p=0,05, p=0,004, p=0,004, p=0,009). Sonuç: Mesleki yaş, toplam meslek yılı, aile hekimliğinde toplam çalışma yılı artıkça mesleki benlik saygısı düzeyleri artmaktadır.
