Abstract | During the pandemic, a quasi-experimental study was designed to empirically test the effectiveness of SOPHIE intervention among palliative care nurses in US. Along with SOPHIE framework, the study also included Nurses’ Psychological Trauma (NPT) model (Foli, et al., 2021). Our study included N=94 nurses working in palliative care setting including long-term care, nursing homes and hospice setting. Intervention included four weekly blog writing with pre and post surveys. Findings showed significant improvement in subjective wellbeing of nurses. Narrative analysis of the four weekly blogs and post blog feedback demonstrated self-reflexivity on the part of participants. Participants shared blogs were helpful as it provided them a valuable opportunity to generate self-awareness and ability to share traumatic experiences while creating avenues for personal growth and wellbeing. Our preliminary data suggest that SOPHIE tool is an effective tool for self-reflexivity and create pathways for selfcare and wellbeing. |
