RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Multimorbidity, increasing numbers of chronically ill patients and demographic change are leading to increased care costs in Germany with an increasing shortage of staff in skilled nursing and geriatric care. In this context, more and more caregivers with a migration background of the 1st generation (PmMH) are being recruited and integrated into existing (corporate) cultures. This represents an important starting point for a permanent and needs-based supply landscape. THE AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of the study was to identify and analyze the specific stresses of PmMH at the workplace in nursing and geriatric care MATERIAL AND METHODS: A systematic literature search was carried out in relevant specialist databases (Pubmed, PsychInfo, Web of Science, Cochrane), supplemented by an extended snowball and hand search. This was followed by a descriptive presentation of the results of the study content, which in a subsequent step was iteratively brought together and consolidated into thematic categories by several people. RESULTS: A total of 15 publications were identified as relevant and included in the analysis. Specific, migration-associated stress factors could be identified. In particular, the categories: "Discrimination and racism", "Language and communication problems" and "Cultural adjustment" characterized the (collaborative) work in nursing and care for the elderly and led to additional stress for employees and patients. DISCUSSION: The present review article identified and summarized specific burdens of PmMH. At this point it can be assumed that these affect both PmMH and patients. So far, operational concepts do not seem to be able to adequately solve the challenges, so that effective, sustainable approaches have to be found. The extent to which the specificed stress factors only affect PmMH is not considered in this context, so that further research is needed.
