摘要

The prevalence of COVID-19 has led to more intensive care unit nurses facing severe diseases and death of patients, high workload, and frequent exposure to stressful situations, exposing them to disorders such as compassion fatigue and reduced resilience. The present research was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of self-compassion on compassion fatigue and resilience of intensive care unit nurses. This semi-experimental study was conducted in a reference hospital for COVID-19 in 2022; 70 nurses working in the intensive care unit for COVID-19 were randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups. The intervention included standard prepared content with self-compassion training content along with mindfulness exercises for eight weeks, which was held in two sessions of 20–30 min per week. Their feedback was evaluated during each session. The control group did not receive any program. One month after the end of the intervention, a post-test was taken from both groups. The data were analyzed using inferential and analytical statistics under SPSS version 22 software. The compassion fatigue of the nurses in the experimental group decreased significantly (P < 0.05). In addition, nurses’ resilience increased significantly (P < 0.05). In addition, a statistically significant difference was observed between compassion fatigue and resilience in the intervention and control groups. The use of self-compassion mindfulness methods can effectively reduce fatigue and improve the resilience of nurses in the intensive care unit. Therefore, it is suggested that mindfulness intervention be used for nurses in the intensive care unit.
