Occupational stress management interventions among healthcare workers
Keywords:
healthcare, interventions, management, stress, workersAbstract
In the healthcare workplaces numerous sources of stress come into play; from inconsistent management, to conflicting demands, work overloads, ambiguous roles, time pressures and unachievable job targets. Instances of it are interventions that, consistent with the principles of MSEL‐based stress management, provide workers with tangible coping devices and self‐care strategies, but at the same time place an emphasis on interventions that manage and overcome some of the most dangerous and sustaining sources of work related stress. This last aspect includes psycho‐education about how courses based on mindfulness can improve physical, emotional, psychosocial and spiritual well‐being, and about how these interventions are more likely to be effective if they are combined with interventions on the work organisation.
