The purpose of this study is to assess the level of compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction among nurses working at Ministry of Health hospitals. It will also examine the significant demographics, work-related contributing factors, and the impact of a mindfulness self-care program on nurses' compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction level.
A cross-sectional design will be used for the first stage of the study. A pre-post- intervention study will be utilized for the second stage of the study. A convenience sample of 361 nurses from six governmental hospitals of the Ministry of Health will be enrolled for the first stage of the study. A minimum of (50) participants, from the hospital with the highest level of compassion fatigue will be included in the intervention stage of the study. An integrated guided mindfulness intervention will be implemented, which will include a 2-day face-to-face workshop and self-practice activities.
The Professional Quality of Life (ProQOL), version 5 (Stamm, 2010), which measures compassion fatigue, will be used in addition to the participants demographic and work-related contributing factors.
