Abstract
Objective: This mixed-method design pilot study explored healthcare graduate students' perceptions of a two-phase wellness intervention.
Participants: Occupational therapy and physical therapy entry-level graduate students (n=53).
Methods: An initial survey guided content for wellness interventions. The first phase (8 weeks) invited students to weekly in-person educational wellness sessions. The second phase (~9 weeks) gave access to a "wellness cart" stocked with wellness supplies. Students shared quantitative and qualitative feedback about the educational sessions and the wellness cart.
Results: Data indicated students perceived the interventions as useful and applicable. Two predominant themes emerged from the group sessions: intentionality in caring for self and sharing techniques for social connection.
Conclusions: Students positively perceived the wellness interventions. Students reported intentionality to incorporate wellness strategies daily and share wellness strategies with others.
