Abstract
Given the COVID-19 pandemic stress burden, 325 health care workers from a university hospital participated in music therapy interventions as support for resilience. Treatment goals focused on self-regulation, reflection for trauma processing, teamwork, and strategy building. Approaches for staff engagement included both scheduled gatherings and flexible interventions as staff were available on the units. Feasibility and accessibility were measured through attendance records and a feedback survey. With 78% survey return rate, most respondents answered questions on accessibility, assistance with coping, and satisfaction with facilitation with either “agree” or “strongly agree,” with the combined percentages ranging from 69.16% to 93.46%.
