| مستخلص: | Work engagement is defined as a positive work-related state of mind that is characterized by vigor, dedication, and absorption. The engagement of staff has been associated with their performance and efficiency, productivity, safety, attendance and retention, customer service and satisfaction, and several other organizational success factors. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered coronavirus and is now a pandemic that is affecting many countries globally. The literature surrounding the employment of measures and strategies to increase work engagement amongst clinical research staff during pandemics is scarce, and to date, focuses primarily on health care and community health workers. The Cooperative Studies Program (CSP) Network of Dedicated Enrollment Sites (NODES) is a clinical research consortium of ten medical centers that are embedded within the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Health Care System. The consortium developed and implemented strategies during the pandemic that were intended to maintain work engagement amongst clinical research staff at each of the sites within the consortium. In this manuscript, we describe the development and deployment of these strategies to clinical research study teams in our clinical research consortium. It is our hope that the opportunities, successes, and challenges described here will serve as a useful resource for other clinical research consortia that are working to identify approaches to keep their staff members engaged during the current pandemic, as well as in other potential future situations in which their primary operations may be altered during other times of crises. |
