Objectives: In this study, we aimed to compare the healthcare workers (frontline) and other health care workers in terms of depression, anxiety, stress symptoms, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, sleep quality and quality of life. Methods: Among the doctors, nurses, assistant health personnel and medical secretaries working in Bilecik Training and Research Hospital and involved in the follow-up and treatment of COVID 19 patients. Those who accepted the study included Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Pitsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), DSM 5 Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms Symptom Checklist (PCL-5), Maudsley Obsessive-Compulsive Symptom Inventory (MOCI) and World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale, Short Form (WHOQOL-BREF-TR) was given. Results: A total of 53 people were included in the study, 24 of which were in the frontline and 29 in the secondline.The number of days they worked with patients who were suspected or infected with COVID 19 and the number of those who needed mental support was significantly higher than the others. The BAI and MOCI scale scores of the frontline group were significantly higher, and the WHOQOL-BREF-TR scores were lower. Conclusion: The risk of developing psychopathology increases in all healthcare professionals, especially frontline healthcare professionals, during the pandemic period, so mental support should be provided.
