Burnout rates among nurses have detrimental impact on job satisfaction, teamwork, and patient care. This costs millions of dollars in the healthcare system and challenges nurse leaders to address in order to keep up with the healthcare demands. Furthermore, burnout is especially relevant in our current healthcare climate, as frontline nurses have increased workload and multiple psychosocial stressors during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic (Sultana, Sharma, Hossain, Bhattacharya, & Purohit, 2019). Literature also suggests that mindful self-care practices need to be reinforced in order to impact burnout long term (Chamorro-Premuzic & Lusk, 2017). Project7 Mindfulness Pledge© is an accessible and voluntary mindfulness tool that nurses can utilize in their individual practice to reduce burnout and does not require significant time commitment.
To evaluate the effectiveness of intentional self-care practices on nurse burnout and workplace environment by measuring job satisfaction and teamwork among nurses.
Comparisons between inpatient units on data from the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI) with the Practice Environment Scale (PES), specifically on job enjoyment and teamwork, were done utilizing ANOVA.
Results show that nurses in an inpatient unit that implemented Project7 has significantly higher job satisfaction as compared to units that did not implement Project7.
This suggests that this tool provides an effective and accessible mindfulness framework managers and directors can utilize to improve job satisfaction, teamwork, and thereby reduce burnout to create healthier work environments.
护士的倦怠率对工作满意度、团队合作和患者护理都有不利影响。这在医疗保健系统中造成了数百万美元的损失,挑战着护士管理者去解决,以满足医疗保健的需求。此外,倦怠在我们当前的医疗保健环境中尤为重要,因为一线护士在冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行期间工作量增加,面临多种心理社会压力源(Sultana、Sharma、Hossain、Bhattacharya 和 Purohit,2019)。文献还表明,需要加强有意识的自我保健实践,以长期影响倦怠(Chamorro-Premuzic 和 Lusk,2017)。Project7 正念承诺©是一种易于获得和自愿的正念工具,护士可以在个人实践中使用,以减少倦怠,且不需要大量的时间投入。
通过衡量护士的工作满意度和团队合作,评估有意图的自我保健实践对护士倦怠和工作环境的有效性。
利用方差分析(ANOVA)比较国家护理质量指标数据库(NDNQI)中来自住院病房的数据与实践环境量表(PES),特别是在工作享受和团队合作方面。
结果表明,实施 Project7 的住院病房的护士的工作满意度明显高于未实施 Project7 的病房的护士。
这表明该工具提供了一个有效的、易于获得的正念框架,管理者可以利用它来提高工作满意度、团队合作,从而减少倦怠,创造更健康的工作环境。
