MBSR Programs to Reduce Compassion Fatigue in Nurses

The intervention involves participation in a structured Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program. Participants engage in a series of sessions over a four week period. During these sessions, participants learn and practice mindfulness techniques such as deep breathing and body scans. The program is designed to enhance participants' awareness of their thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations in the present moment, promoting a nonjudgmental acceptance of their experiences. By cultivating mindfulness skills, participants aim to reduce stress, enhance emotional regulation, and develop resilience in coping with the challenges of their work environment.
