Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically affected all aspects of people's lives and work, negatively impacting personal well-being and job satisfaction. Based on the conservation of resources theory, this study examines the relationship of organizational adaptive practices (OAP) responding to COVID-19 and psychological resilience (PR) with employee job satisfaction (JS) while incorporating the mediating role of emotional exhaustion (EE).
Methods: We surveyed 340 employees from China through an online questionnaire, which was used under convenience sampling and finally recovered a valid sample size of 314. We used SPSS and AMOS to analyze the correlation and hypothesis testing of the collected data through structural equation modelling (SEM) and bootstrapping.
Results: Both OAP and PR facilitate JS and inhibit employee EE. EE negatively predicted employee JS. EE mediated both the relationship between OAP and subordinate JS and the relationship between PR and subordinate JS.
Conclusion: The study provides a new perspective on increasing JS during the COVID-19 pandemic, thereby expanding the scope of the antecedents of employee JS in crisis situations. It also reveals the mediating role of EE and deepens the research on the mechanism by which OAP and PR affect individuals, providing practical guidance for organizations to improve employee satisfaction in sudden public crisis situations.

Objective: Aim: To provide a scientific rationale for various approaches to the practical application of individual motivation theories in order to develop a motivated medical workforce as the foundation for strengthening healthcare systems.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: Based on comparative analysis, as well as systematic and analytical approaches to understanding selected motivation theories - namely Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory, Adams's Equity Theory, Vroom's Expectancy Theory, and Deci and Ryan's Self-Determination Theory - the authors propose integrating these theories into managerial strategies.
Conclusion: Conclusions: A well-functioning healthcare workforce system requires not only a sufficient number of professionals but also effective motivation strategies based on various theories, such as those by Maslow, Herzberg, and Vroom, to enhance job satisfaction and retention.

Objective: The objective of this study was to systematically explore how culture has been conceptualized, investigated, and measured within general surgery residency training programs.
Summary Background Data: Research on the culture of general surgery residency training programs has primarily focused on examining individual parameters, such as mistreatment and burnout, rather than comprehensively analyzing the overall culture, climate, or learning environment.
Methods: Five databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, CINAHL, APA PsycInfo) were searched.

Objective: The aim of this study is to analyse the factors affecting medical burnout in hospitals, identify the characteristics of staff experiencing high levels of burnout and devise a practical and sustainable prediction mechanism.
Methods: A survey was conducted to access the current situation, followed by a regression analysis using data from the Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey, demographic information related to healthcare personnel and employee job satisfaction metrics from the hospitals under study. Subsequently, four predictive models-logistic regression, K-nearest neighbour, decision tree and random forest (RF)-were employed to predict the degree of healthcare burnout.
Aim: To explore the factors affecting the sustainable improvement of nurses' evidence-based practice (EBP) competency after receiving an EBP training program.
Design: A sequential mixed-methods study.
Methods: Thirty-seven ICU nurses participated from an adult ICU in Egypt.

Background: Retention in care is vital for the successful management of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). About 20% of clients interrupt their HIV therapy within 6 months of starting it. Lay healthcare workers complement the healthcare professionals to provide services across the HIV care continuum.
