Grounded in interpretivism, this method incorporates Geertz's concept of \"thick description\" and Turner's concept of \"translation\" and emphasizes the exploration of meaning within cultural contexts. By continuously comparing and synthesizing similar and divergent concepts and metaphors across multiple qualitative studies, this approach highlights the cultural context and interpretive significance of integrated phenomena, thereby constructing higher-order interpretive frameworks. Moreover, comprehensive explanations are given of the seven phases proposed by Noblit and Hare (1988), i.e., getting started, determining relevant content for the initial inquiry, reading the studies, establishing how the studies are related, translating the studies into each other, synthesizing the translations, and presenting the final synthesis. Furthermore, potential applications of meta-ethnographic synthesis in the field of healthcare are described, including synthesizing multicultural caregiving experiences to elucidate the lived worlds of patients and caregivers. Meta-ethnographic synthesis not only fosters deeper cultural insights but also provides concrete qualitative evidence to inform policy-making and facilitates the translation and exchange of knowledge between academia and clinical practice. The insights provided in this paper highlight that meta-ethnographic synthesis, through its comparison and interpretation, offers unique insights into human experience and cultural diversity, enriching qualitative research with new perspectives and theoretical contributions.</p>","PeriodicalId":35672,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nursing","volume":"72 2","pages":"96-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143765339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on a review of the literature, gratitude is a positive psychological resource that may effectively reduce stress, enhance psychological resilience and well-being, improve the workplace atmosphere, and reduce turnover intention. Gratitude, which encapsulates the recognition and response of an individual to the goodwill of others, may be cultivated through practice in nurses to further enhance job satisfaction and professional identity. Gratitude-related interventions such as keeping gratitude journals, writing letters, engaging in team activities, and practicing meditation have been shown to significantly reduce occupational burnout and stress. For example, recording three things one is grateful for each day or participating regularly in gratitude gatherings can improve interpersonal relationships and strengthen team cohesion. However, challenges such as high drop-out rates, limited intervention formats, and significant resource demands hinder organizations from fully implementing these interventions. Various measures to overcome these challenges, including taking regular gratitude walks and establishing gratitude walls, should be implemented while also ensuring that intervention designs are adequately adapted both culturally and contextually. In summary, gratitude interventions have the potential to significantly enhance the mental health of nursing staff while promoting their job satisfaction and retention. Future efforts should concentrate on advancing gratitude education and practices, optimizing intervention methods, and helping healthcare institutions address workforce shortages.</p>","PeriodicalId":35672,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nursing","volume":"72 2","pages":"19-25"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143764975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the United States, 62% of nurses experience burnout, with burnout rates reaching as high as 75% among nurses under the age of 25 (American Nurses Association, 2024). In Taiwan, recent nursing staff shortages have led to excessive workloads and exhaustion among clinical nurses, presenting a critical challenge for nursing administration and education. Occupational burnout not only affects psychological well-being but also negatively influences clinical decision-making and the ability to cope with stress (Gao et al., 2023). Self-care refers to the attention and care given to one's physical and mental health. Effective self-care involves regularly implementing strategies to prevent stress and anxiety while enhancing overall health and well-being (Kwon, 2023). Resilience is generally defined as a dynamic adaptation process describing the ability to overcome difficulties and grow from adversity without succumbing to burnout or psychosocial health issues. Nurses with higher levels of resilience tend to recover more quickly from stressful events and experience lower levels of emotional exhaustion (Tzeng et al., 2023). From maintaining awareness and care for one's physical and mental well-being to adapting and growing through difficulties and adversity, developing essential relevant knowledge and skills is crucial for nursing professionals, whose training is deeply rooted in altruism, dedication, and empathy and especially applicable in high-stress and overburdened workplace environments. Various self-care and resilience-building interventions have been developed for clinical nursing and nursing education. Examples include mindfulness training, cognitive-behavioral training, home text-based counseling, and resilience training focusing on gratitude, compassion, acceptance, and forgiveness as well as meditation. In addition to traditional in-person training, digital and virtual reality-based resilience programs have been developed to accommodate the needs of nurses who work rotating shifts (Clough et al., 2024; Yu et al., 2024). Research supports that mindfulness training effectively alleviates stress, reduces fatigue, and decreases workplace conflicts among nurses (Lee et al., 2024; Talebiazar et al., 2024). Moreover, fostering mindfulness contributes to greater resilience, increased job satisfaction, and improved patient care outcomes (Talebiazar et al., 2025). A systematic review of mindfulness-based interventions highlighted mindfulness as an effective strategy for emergency and critical care nurses to combat burnout, enhance compassion, and build resilience (Joseph & Jose, 2024). Moreover, a 10-minute virtual reality-based meditation intervention performed during shift hours has been shown to alleviate stress among clinical nurses working 12-hour shifts (Clough et al., 2024).

However, with rapid urbanization and rising workplace pressures, mental health issues such as anxiety and mood disorders are becoming increasingly prevalent. Nurses, impacted by shift work and heavy workloads, often face challenges such as fatigue, psychological stress, and insomnia that can negatively affect work efficiency and patient care quality. Contact with nature has been shown to effectively relieve stress and enhance psychological resilience, making this an important strategy for improving overall health in nurses. In light of this, integrating green spaces into the design of healthcare facilities is essential. For example, creating outdoor gardens and natural landscape areas as well as incorporating natural light with window views and greenery not only provides nurses with spaces for stress relief but also helps enhance psychological resilience, boost happiness and job satisfaction, and, ultimately, improve patient care quality while supporting the sustainable development of healthcare services. At the policy level, management should actively implement health-promotion measures such as scheduling regular outdoor breaks and designing activities that encourage interactivity with nature.
