This study explores the coping strategies employed by healthcare professionals to manage work-related stress and the critical role of organizational support in this process. Through qualitative interviews with 41 healthcare workers, the research identifies key stressors such as workload, staff shortages, and emotional burden, and examines both problem-focused and emotion-focused coping mechanisms. The findings emphasize the importance of supportive leadership, adequate staffing, and access to professional development in mitigating stress. Practical implications include recommendations for healthcare organizations to improve workforce planning, enhance leadership engagement, and implement evidence-based stress management interventions. By addressing these factors, healthcare institutions can foster more resilient work environments, improving both employee well-being and patient care.
