TAKING CARE OF OURSELVES: EDUCTIONAL INTERVENTION ON PERSONAL SKILLS OF FAMILY MEDICINE AND COMMUNITY NURSES TRAINEES
Abstract
Abstract Body
OBJECTIVES:
To evaluate the effectiveness of an educational intervention in residents of Family Medicine and Community Care (physicians and nurses) to improve empathy. The intervention was designed to acquire or improve personal skills mediating in the processes of physical and mental well-being that could have an influence on burnout and, conversely, on empathy.
METHODOLOGY:
Experimental intervention study during specialized training for residents of Multiprofessional Teaching Unit (UDM), from two Spanish Health Regions, promotions 2020, 2021 and 2022, family physicians and community nurses.
The controls will be their peers of the UDM from a different Health Region. All residents of these promotions who want to participate in the study will be recruited.
The specifically planned training intervention consists of 3 annual face-to-face workshops per promotion vs online training vs control group (expected Face-to-face 90/ Online 70/ Control 180). REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) will be used for data management.
The main result will be the variation in level of self-perceived empathy measured by Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), as well as the difference in burnout measured by the Copenhagen questionnaire (CBI). The secondary outcomes will be: locus of control, resilience (Connor-Davidson), Orientation to Life Questionnaire (OLQ-13), social support (Oslo-3) and its influence on burnout, adjusted for age, sex, personality (TIPISP v2), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and other organizational factors.
For statistical analysis, GLM and GAM models will be used.
DISCUSSION
Our troubles with recruitment and Covid-19 pandemic will be discussed. Any help to overcome them will be welcomed.
