To examine the experiences of nurses and nursing assistants who participated in a mindfulness project.
Increased demands and fewer resources have become the norm in most health care settings. As a result, health care professionals face exceptional stress in their work environments and are vulnerable to burnout and compassion fatigue. Even more distressing, many new nurses are leaving their jobs within the first two years.
Qualitative interviews were conducted with nine participants to discover their experience with the project.
The major theme, a process of moving from practice to praxis, is brought forth through in-depth descriptive analysis of nine individual interviews. The process occurred through three themes: fostering self-awareness and compassion; fostering other-awareness and compassion; and compelling transformation in the unit culture.
This study develops an evidence base for incorporating and building mindfulness into health care environments at a time when there is a tremendous need for highly functioning practitioners.
Nurse leaders are encouraged to examine how they can support their staff in moving from practice to praxis as a part of improving professional well-being, retention, quality and safety in health care.
探讨参与正念项目的护士和护理助理的体验。
在大多数医疗保健环境中,需求的增加和资源的减少已成为常态。因此,医疗保健专业人员在工作环境中面临特殊的压力,容易出现倦怠和同情心疲劳。更令人痛心的是,许多新护士在工作的头两年内就离职了。
对 9 名参与者进行了定性访谈,以了解他们参与该项目的体验。
主要主题是从实践到实践的转变过程,通过对 9 个单独访谈的深入描述性分析得以呈现。这一过程通过三个主题实现:培养自我意识和同情心;培养对他人的意识和同情心;以及在单位文化中产生强制性的转变。
在当前急需高效从业者的情况下,本研究为将正念纳入医疗保健环境提供了证据基础。
鼓励护理管理者审视如何支持员工从实践到实践的转变,以提高专业人员的幸福感、留任率、护理质量和安全性。
