The Effect of Mindfulness-Based Death Psychoeducation Program on Death Awareness and Death Anxiety Levels in Nurses

The aim of psychoeducation is to reduce the death anxiety of nurses and to increase their awareness of death by providing them with information about the death experience they are secondarily exposed to (1- Death process and death anxiety, 2- Effects of the death process on the individual and family, 3- Coping with the death process, 4- Effects of the death process on caregiving nurses, 5- Awareness of death, 6- Nursing care and emotional competence during the death process). Therefore, it will be evaluated whether the implemented psychoeducation program reduces the intended death anxiety and creates awareness about death. This study will be conducted to examine the effect of a 6-week, 12-session mindfulness-based group psychoeducation program given to nurses on death anxiety and death awareness levels.
