Abstract
Introduction: Professionalism means the collection of values and skills that distinguish
the attitude of humanism in professional work. Inter-professional collaboration, lifelong
learning and empathy are components of medical professionalism that have been
associated with professional well-being in health care staffs. Aim of Work: - To assess
the overall perception of well-being and the general state of health of a sample of health
professionals ending their internship year, to evaluate empathic attitude in dealing with
patients, inter-professional collaborative work skills, and lifelong learning skills and to
recognize which of these three elements have a positive influence on the overarching
wellbeing of the sample of health professionals. Materials and Methods: The Scale
of Life Satisfaction (SWLS) and the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28) were
used, respectively, to assess the impression of wellbeing and overall general health
state. Teamwork was assessed by The Jefferson Scale of Attitudes toward Physician-
Nurse Collaboration (JSAPNC), lifelong learning assessed by The Jefferson Scale
of Physicians Lifelong Learning (JeffSPLL), and Jefferson’s scales of empathy were
used to gauge professionalism (JSE-HP). To explain the linear link between the overall
feeling of well-being and the other factors under study, a multiple regression model
was created. Results: The study was conducted on 226 students half of them were
medical students and others were nursing students, 116 (51.3 %) were males. The mean
age of studied group was 23.9±1.7 years. There was a significant difference between
medical and nursing students regarding SWLS, the mean score was 31.3 (3) and 18.5
(6.1) among medical and nursing students respectively. Multiple regression revealed
that sex, discipline, anxiety and insomnia (GHQ), JSE and JSAPNC were associated
with global wellbeing. Conclusion: The findings of the current study demonstrated
the critical role which professionalism plays in enhancing the general wellbeing of
healthcare practitioners
