A menudo, quienes diseñan las normas internas miran al equipo de salud como el canal por donde fluye la atención, antes que como personas cuyo propio equilibrio sostiene esa atención. Objetivo. Determinar las condiciones económicas, laborales y sociales del personal de enfermería que trabaja en el territorio del Chaco paraguayo. 2025. Materiales y Métodos. Estudio cuantitativo, observacional y descriptivo. Se encuestó a 45 enfermeros seleccionados por conveniencia en la región del Chaco. Se utilizó un instrumento validado (Alpha de Cronbach: 0,85). Se garantizaron principios éticos según el informe Belmont. Resultados. La muestra proviene en su mayoría de la XV Región Sanitaria (57%), con edades entre 40-49 años (40%), mujeres (56%) y con hijos (88%). El 84% es licenciado en enfermería, el 53% tiene más de 11 años de experiencia y el 63% gana por encima del salario mínimo. El 49% está contratado y el 77% recibió capacitación. El 45% trabaja 30 horas semanales y el 33% hace horas extras. El 36% usa moto y el 40% califica las rutas como malas. El 47% atiende comunidades de 1.000-3.000 habitantes. En infraestructura, el 89% tiene electricidad, pero solo el 22% agua potable y el 20% internet constante. El 47% cuenta con mobiliario y equipo básico adecuado. Conclusión. A pesar de su experiencia y formación, los enfermeros del Chaco enfrentan precariedad laboral, infraestructura deficiente y dificultades de transporte. Estas condiciones afectan su bienestar y pueden comprometer la calidad de la atención en salud. Se requieren políticas que mejoren sus condiciones laborales.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[ABSTRACT Introduction. Those who design internal regulations often view the healthcare team as a channel through which care flows, rather than as individuals whose own balance sustains that care. Objective. To determine the economic, labor, and social conditions of nursing staff working in the Paraguayan Chaco region. 2025. Materials and Methods. A quantitative, observational, and descriptive study was conducted. 45 nurses selected by convenience in the Chaco region were surveyed. A validated instrument was used (Cronbach's alpha: 0.85). Ethical principles were guaranteed according to the Belmont report. Results. The sample comes mostly from the XV Health Region (57%), with ages between 40-49 years (40%), women (56%), and with children (88%). 84% have a degree in nursing, 53% have more than 11 years of experience, and 63% earn above the minimum wage. 49% are employed, and 77% have received training. Forty-five percent work 30 hours per week, and 33% work overtime. Thirty-six percent use motorcycles, and 40% rate the roads as poor. Forty-seven percent serve communities of 1,000-3,000 inhabitants. Regarding infrastructure, 89% have electricity, but only 22% have potable water and 20% have constant internet access. Forty-seven percent have adequate furniture and basic equipment. Conclusion. Despite their experience and training, nurses in Chaco face job insecurity, poor infrastructure, and transportation difficulties. These conditions affect their well-being and can compromise the quality of health care. Policies to improve their working conditions are needed.]]></p></abstract>
