L’objectif
Emerging literature suggests that healthcare workers also experience moral injury, particularly in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. However, it is not known if moral injury contributes to substance use among healthcare workers or whether these effects might differ by gender, race/ethnicity, or occupational level.
Constatations/points à retenir
Our findings suggest that healthcare workers experience substantial distress related to morally injurious events, which may affect their likelihood of non-medical use of prescription drugs [NMUPD], cannabis use, use of other illicit drugs, and hazardous drinking, and that men in healthcare may be particularly at risk.
