Anesthesia, resuscitation and intensive care is an activity that requires rapid reaction, recognition of individual emergencies, continuous training, work-specific performance in the operating room and intensive care units. Healthcare staff working in such a specific department must closely cooperate with all other activities, all for the benefit of patients. For such a successful operation, it is necessary to work in the team, which requires specific skills, technical knowledge, problem-solving skills and quick decision-making as well as high-quality communication. The benefits of this kind of work are certainly greater employee satisfaction, fewer mistakes in work, and therefore the level of stress is lower. The emergence of stress is an integral part of the job, because workers are facing a variety of emergency situations that are complex and specific, and are an effort to the body. This paper gives us an insight into the perceived level of stress and the effectiveness of team work as well as the satisfaction at the Department of Anesthesia, Reanimation and Intensive Treatment of the Pula General Hospital. The survey was conducted on a sample of 44 respondents employed in this activity, out of which 22 doctors and 22 nurses / technicians. Surveys were used for the purpose of the survey, in which the respondents evaluated their personal involvement in team work and evaluated the level of stress. The results of this study show a moderate level of stress in nurses and doctors, but at a slightly higher level with doctors. Timely work and belonging to the team itself are the most satisfied, while less satisfied with feedback on the work of their team, and more attention should be paid to it in the future in order to create an even stronger sense of belonging and teamwork.
