Stress Management and Resilience Training (SMART) Intervention for Family Caregivers of Individuals With Advanced Cancer
Feasibility and Acceptability of a Stress Management and Resilience Training (SMART) Intervention for Family Caregivers of Individuals With Advanced Cancer Undergoing Outpatient Chemotherapy
調査の概要
詳細な説明
FCGs experience stress and extensive demands in providing care for those with head and neck cancer. Teaching the principles of mindfulness and compassion to FCGs has the potential to protect their psychological health and well-being. This may allow them to provide effective, compassionate care to patients, which ultimately puts the needs of the patient first.
Mindfulness interventions have demonstrated decreased stress and anxiety, and improved self-compassion for individuals, but entail numerous sessions over several weeks, a barrier for caregivers. The SMART program, a brief mindfulness program, has demonstrated improvements in resilience, anxiety, perceived stress, and mindfulness for healthcare providers and patients.
