The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness of a daylong resilience retreat on healthcare professionals' anxiety levels, intention to engage in mindfulness practices, and self-efficacy around mindfulness.
Caregiver burnout is a concern that needs to be addressed at the organizational level so that professionals can reduce their risk of psychological injury while providing high-quality care. The COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) pandemic has exacerbated symptoms of burnout among nurses nationally.
Ten sessions of daylong resilience retreats were delivered to independent groups of nurses, nurse practitioners, and other healthcare professionals. Preretreat and postretreat assessments were completed using a 19-item survey developed by the research team to assess state anxiety, intention to engage in mindfulness practices, and self-efficacy around mindfulness.
One hundred six healthcare professionals completed the resilience retreats. There was a statistically significant decrease in state anxiety scores following the retreat. The majority of the participants reported high intentions to engage in mindfulness practices and felt confident about incorporating mindfulness in their lives.
Brief resilience retreats endorsed by nurse leadership can reduce perceived anxiety and facilitate engagement in contemplative practices, which are associated with a decrease in the risk of burnout.
本研究旨在测试为期一天的恢复力静修对医疗保健专业人员焦虑水平、参与正念实践的意愿以及正念自我效能的有效性。
护理人员倦怠是一个需要在组织层面解决的问题，以便专业人员在提供高质量护理的同时降低心理伤害的风险。COVID-19（新型冠状病毒）大流行加剧了全国范围内护士的倦怠症状。
向独立的护士、执业护士和其他医疗保健专业人员群体提供了十次为期一天的恢复力静修。使用由研究团队开发的 19 项调查评估进行了静修前和静修后的评估，以评估状态焦虑、参与正念实践的意愿和正念自我效能。
106 名医疗保健专业人员完成了恢复力静修。静修后，状态焦虑评分显著下降。大多数参与者报告说有很高的意愿参与正念实践，并对将正念融入生活充满信心。
由护理领导认可的短暂恢复力静修可以减轻感知到的焦虑，并促进参与沉思实践，这与降低倦怠风险有关。
