ABSTRACT. Empirical evidence on COVID-19-related psychological distress, moral injury, and sleep disturbances among primary care providers has been scarcely documented in the literature. Using and replicating data from Bain & Company, BMA, Gorini et al. (2020), Sperling (2020), The University of Melbourne, ICF, ICFJ, SEIU, and TCDJ/Columbia University, we performed analyses and made estimates regarding psychological wellness among healthcare workers treating COVID-19 patients. Descriptive statistics of compiled data from the completed surveys were calculated when appropriate.
