Brief Summary:
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a mindfulness-based stress reduction MBSR program in reducing compassion fatigue among nurses The main question it aims to answer is
Does participation in an MBSR program decrease levels of compassion fatigue among nurses The primary hypothesis is that nurses who participate in the MBSR program will experience a significant reduction in compassion fatigue after implementing the interventions
Participants will include psychiatric nurse practitioners working in high-stress environments
Participants will
Attend a series of MBSR sessions over a specified period Engage in mindfulness practices such as body scans and deep breathing Complete self-report measures to assess levels of compassion fatigue before and after the intervention

Detailed Description:
This observational study aims to assess the impact of a mindfulness-based stress reduction MBSR program on reducing compassion fatigue among psychiatric nurse practitioners working in high-stress environments The primary question it seeks to address is whether participation in the MBSR program leads to decreased levels of compassion fatigue among nurses
The primary hypothesis posits that nurses who engage in the MBSR program will experience a significant reduction in compassion fatigue following the intervention
Participants in this study will be psychiatric nurse practitioners who work in demanding healthcare settings These individuals will be invited to participate voluntarily in the MBSR program
The intervention will involve participants attending a series of MBSR sessions conducted over a specified period typically lasting around 4 weeks During these sessions participants will be guided through various mindfulness practices including body scans and deep breathing exercises These techniques are designed to enhance participants awareness of their thoughts emotions and bodily sensations promoting a nonjudgmental acceptance of their experiences
To assess the effectiveness of the intervention participants will complete self-report measures to evaluate their levels of compassion fatigue These assessments will be administered both before the start of the MBSR program baselinepretest and after its completion follow-upposttest By comparing pre- and post-intervention scores researchers will evaluate any changes in compassion fatigue levels among participants
Overall this study aims to contribute to our understanding of the potential benefits of mindfulness-based interventions in mitigating compassion fatigue among psychiatric nurse practitioners with implications for improving the well-being and resilience of healthcare professionals in high-stress environments
