Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
 This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Resilience Training (MBRT) in reducing occupational burnout and stress while enhancing adaptive coping strategies among staff nurses. Additionally, the study seeks to maintain normal biophysiological parameters, such as blood pressure and cortisol levels. By fostering resilience, mindfulness, and emotional regulation, the intervention is expected to improve job satisfaction, well-being, work engagement, and overall quality of life.

Participants will be randomly assigned to either the experimental group, which will receive MBRT, or the control group, which will continue with routine support measures.

Data Collection and Assessment:
Participants will be screened using validated scales, including the Maslach Burnout Inventory, Perceived Stress Scale, Brief COPE Scale, and salivary cortisol levels.

Baseline Assessment Includes:

  • Blood Pressure Monitoring: Evaluating the physiological response to stress and the impact of MBRT.
  • Salivary Cortisol Levels: Measuring cortisol levels to assess stress and the physiological effects of MBRT on stress regulation.
  • Coping Strategies: Assessing changes in stress management using the Nursing Workplace Coping Scale.

Outcome Measurement:

  • Post-Test 1: Conducted immediately after the intervention.
  • Post-Test 2: Conducted 12 weeks after the intervention to assess long-term effects.

Study Outcomes:

  • Primary Outcomes: Occupational burnout, stress levels, and coping strategies.
  • Secondary Outcomes: Physiological changes, including blood pressure and salivary cortisol levels.

This study aims to provide evidence on the effectiveness of MBRT in promoting resilience and well-being among nurses in a high-stress healthcare environment.
