Abstract

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of the mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program on managing work stress and improving patient outcomes. DESIGN AND METHODS: A one-group pre-/post-test design was used to measure the impact of the MBSR program. The Mental Health Professionals Stress Scale, the Sense of Self Scale, the Toronto Mindfulness Scale, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory were used. FINDINGS: The MBSR class assisted staff in decreasing their stress levels and improve their self-care, which resulted in improved patient care. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Increases in patient satisfaction and decreases in patient safety events were found.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
