Work-Related ConditionBurnout3 more

Safety & Health through Integrated, Facilitated Teams (SHIFT) is an intervention study to enhance employee health, safety, and well-being in public sector healthcare institutions in New England. The investigators will evaluate the effectiveness of an adapted form of the Center for the Promotion of Health in the New England Workplace (CPH-NEW) Healthy Workplace Participatory Program (HWPP) for strengthening cohesiveness, engagement, and impact of pre-existing joint labor-management health and safety committees. The sites are enrolled in three pairs, matched by agency and type of services. For each pair of sites, one will be randomly selected for immediate HWPP coaching. The paired organization will serve as a control until the study mid-point, at which time all sites will be coached. Process evaluations will examine barriers to and facilitators of program uptake, reach, and effectiveness. Survey data and injury records will be examined in intervention and control groups to describe the frequencies of workplace and non-occupational exposures of selected health outcomes.

"Dialogue Circles" to Reduce the Level of Caregiver Overload in Complex Chronic Patients and Advanced...

Caregiver Burnout

The increase in life expectancy and the decrease in the birth rate have led to an aging population and a higher prevalence of chronic diseases. This has generated the need for informal caregivers of older adults to face health care situations of this population. On the other hand, it has become evident how the epidemiological profile has changed over the last 50 years, with a decrease in infectious diseases and a higher prevalence of chronic non-communicable diseases, which increase the demand for family caregivers. Caring for a dependent family member can negatively affect the caregiver's health in his or her affective and working life. In the first phase, a cross-sectional descriptive study will be carried out and in the second phase, an experimental study, randomized clinical trial (RCT) with simple masking will be conducted Objectives: Phase I general objective is to describe the sociodemographic characteristics of the study sample. Specific in this phase are to analyze the relationship between level of caregiver strain and sociodemographic variables collected from primary caregivers, to analyze the relationship between level of caregiver strain and the patient's ability to perform activities of daily living, to analyze the relationship between level of caregiver strain and the patient's ability to perform activities of daily living. To analyze the relationship between level of caregiver overload and deterioration in the patient's cognitive sphere. To analyze the relationship between overload and the instrumental activities that the patient can perform. To analyze the relationship between overload and mental health from a positive perspective. Phase II: the general objective is to determine the efficacy of the nursing intervention, dialogue circles, to reduce the level of overload perceived by caregivers of patients identified as complex chronic patients and chronic advanced disease. The specific objectives are to compare the level of overload perceived by the main caregivers before and after the intervention between the experimental group and the control group, and the degree of satisfaction with the dialogue circles nursing intervention. It will be carried out in Catalonia, in the populations of the metropolitan area of Barcelona, belonging to the Primary Care Service (SAP) Baix Llobregat Centre.

Caregiver BurnoutCaregiver Stress

The current study builds on the empirical foundation of Mindful-Compassion Art Therapy (MCAT) to test its efficacy as a multicomponent, holistic, psycho-socio-spiritual intervention for supporting dementia family caregivers. MCAT is a group-based intervention that integrates mindfulness meditation and art therapy, with reflective awareness complementing emotional expression, to foster self-compassion and inner-resilience among professional caregivers. A wait-list RCT design is adopted to refine and extend the application of MCAT to empower self-care and resilience among 102 dementia family caregivers recruited via community-based dementia-care organizations in Singapore. The expected outcomes will advance theory and practice for sustainable dementia family caregiving in Singapore and around the globe.

Improving Survivorship Among Minority Cancer Dyads

CancerBreast Cancer3 more

This proposed intervention centers on improving survivorship outcomes among African American and Latinx cancer survivor and caregiver dyads. As a result, there will be four major outcomes. First, as a result of partnership with minority social institutions (e.g. faith leaders), we will develop an in-depth culturally sensitive curriculum and survivorship care plan for Cancer Survivorship and Caregiver Leaders Aimed for Minority Populations (CSC LAMPs). Second, we will increase knowledge and skills by evaluating a comprehensive cancer survivorship training program designed for underserved health professional students. Third, the implementation of this program will improve survivorship outcomes among African American and Latinx cancer survivors with advanced stage cancer and their caregivers. Lastly, this study will build sustainability for underserved minorities with the training of 30 future healthcare providers as a valuable community resource for improving cancer survivorship outcomes. The long-term outcomes of the CSC LAMPs program will generate workforce capacity and diversity in cancer-based clinical practice, research, and community advocacy for underserved minority cancer survivors and caregivers.
