Purposive sampling was used to recruit nursing students from a university representing undergraduate and graduate nursing programs. Data were collected using four focus group discussions. All discussions were audio recorded and transcribed. Coding was generated by the research team to drive key themes and sub themes. Results: The 28 participants identified teachers’ attitude, university environment and family responsibilities as key factors influencing their mental health. They also recommended several strategies for nursing institutions to promote students’ mental health during training. Conclusion: Nursing students are the future of healthcare systems. It is important that their mental health is given priority during nursing training. Promoting mental health would help nursing institutions create environments that foster health and well-being of students. These findings may also be useful for promoting mental health of students in other healthcare disciplines.

Survey items focused on individual and institutional factors that are predictive of faculty vitality, organized around themes of work-life integration, professional engagement, and institutional support. The survey also evaluated the impact of interventions implemented in response to the pandemic on faculty burnout. Results: One hundred and thirty-eight clinical and basic science faculty participated in the survey. Female faculty are less satisfied with work-life integration since the onset of the pandemic. Almost all (98.2%) faculty respondents experienced detriments to their professional development, and 38% believed their research was affected. Faculty of color experienced more detrimental effects on their professional development. Self-re-ported burnout increased from 23.6% before to 44.8% after the pandemic. Burnout was associated with lack of career development opportunities, whereas career satisfaction and utilization of university support efforts were protective. Conclusion: Faculty vitality has decreased since the pandemic began, but institutional support can mitigate these detrimental effects. Additional research on the efficacy of interventions to support female faculty, ear-ly-career researchers, and under-represented minorities in medicine is needed.

In Raj Yoga Meditation (RYM), the steps for meditation are clear and explicit, so it is easy to practice. The study aimed to assess the feasibility of daily practice of RYM by medical undergraduates and find out if there is an improvement in the mental health and stress levels of the participants. Methods: We chose 80 students randomly from two first-year MBBS batches. All students completed the General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12) and the Medical Students Stressor Questionnaire (MSSQ) before and after one month of meditation practice. The participants then gave written feedback for program evaluation. Results: Statistical analysis of the mean GHQ, MSSQ I, and MSSQ IV scores showed a highly significant decline after the intervention compared to preintervention levels. There was also a statistically significant decrease in the number of students with a GHQ score >=3.Qualitative analysis showed that with daily practice of RYM, students developed the ability to handle stress and liked the technique of RYM. Conclusion: It is feasible to conduct a supervised meditation program for a month for undergraduate students.

{"title":"Evaluating Burnout, Secondary Traumatic Stress, and Sleep Disturbances in Healthcare Professionals During a Global Pandemic","authors":"Laura K. Miller, Sarah J. Pehlke","doi":"10.55504/2578-9333.1088","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.55504/2578-9333.1088","url":null,"abstract":"Introduction: For healthcare workers, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in increased workload, work related stress and patient acuity potentially leading to burnout, secondary traumatic stress (STS), and sleep disruptions. This study aims to assess the prevalence of burnout and STS symptoms, as well as sleep disturbances among healthcare personnel working in the United States during the pandemic. Methods: Healthcare workers from all disciplines and settings in the United States completed a cross-sec-tional survey about work and personal characteristics from January 20-March 1, 2021. Participants reported on symptoms of burnout, STS, and sleep disruptions. Results: A total of 360 participants in the United States responded to the survey with representation from 32 states. The average number of reported burnout symptoms (M = 5.28; out of a total of 12 possible symp-toms), STS symptoms (M = 2.88; 8 possible), and sleep disturbances (M = 2.29; 5 possible) suggest a high prevalence of negative emotional and wellness experiences among healthcare workers during the pandemic. No differences based on profession were identified. A significant difference in burnout by age and time in the profession demonstrated the youngest participants experienced more burnout symptoms (F = 8.04, p < 0.001), as well as those with fewer years of experience in their profession (F = 6.78, p < 0.001). Correlational analyses demonstrated that increased sleep disturbances had a significant association with increased burnout and STS symptoms, as well as perceived impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the number of STS and burnout symptoms were found to have a moderate, positive correlation, suggesting a relationship between burnout and STS. Conclusion: Most healthcare professionals working since COVID-19 experience symptoms of burnout, STS, and sleep disturbances. Younger healthcare workers may be more susceptible to negative emotional coping and sleep-related changes. Results suggest symptoms of burnout, STS, and sleep disturbance are interrelat-ed, and also affected by perceived impact of the pandemic. These findings have implications for the state of healthcare workers as a whole.
