Statistical threshold was set at p&lt;0.05.Results: Out of 180 respondents, 114 completed the survey in total. Most of the participants were female (64.9%) aged between 31–40 years old (86.8%) with 64.9% having 5–10 years of working experience. During the redeployment, 57% of respondents reported experiencing psychological effects, and 73.7% felt underprepared. However, 71.1% said their assignment to COVID-19 wards was beneficial, and 38.4% were willing to receive redeployment.Conclusion: The results of the survey indicate that COVID-19 ward redeployment was successful because participants believed their participation was important and the lead team in the COVID-19 wards offered enough direction and assistance.
