    Objective: To explore the effects of personalized psychological intervention on medical staff's mental health and professional identity in preventing and controlling COVID-19.Methods: A total of 256 medical staff working in the prevention and control of COVID-19 from March 2020 to October 2021 were randomly selected. According to the random number table method, the medical staff were randomly grouped as the observation group and the control group.Results: Among the 256 medical staff, 82.03% of participants were aged from 25 to 45, and 90.23% of participants were women. After the implementation of personalized psychological intervention, the SCL-90 scores of medical staff in the observation and control groups were largely reduced (P < 0.05). After the intervention, the observation group had sharply lower scores of SRSS, CFQ-F and AAQ-Ⅱ and markedly higher scores of subjective well-being and professional identity than the control group (P < 0.05).During the prevention and control of the COVID-19 epidemic, medical staff had varying degrees of negative emotions. Personalized psychological intervention could improve the sleep quality of medical staff, reduce the degree of cognitive integration and empirical avoidance, increase the happiness experience, and improve professional identity and mental health.
