摘要
目的评估一个量身定制的、简短的、3小时的培训项目的影响，以帮助农村金融顾问和其他非临床农村支持工作者认识和管理他们的农业客户所经历的痛苦。澳大利亚的农村、地区和偏远地区。农村支持工作者(N = 75；（主要是农村金融顾问和家庭与企业导师），参加一个由两部分组成的在线培训计划，以识别和管理农民的困境。设计在第一次研讨会前、第二次研讨会后和两次研讨会结束后3个月分别收集个人问卷。结果75名参与者提供了训练前数据。一系列用于重复测量的混合模型表明，在培训前后，参与者在识别和管理农民困境方面的信心有了显著提高。具体来说，增加了对区分轻度痛苦和需要专业帮助的痛苦的信心（F = 11.30, p < 0.001），更好地利用时间的技能（F = 14.17, p < 0.001），识别痛苦（F = 9.16, p < 0.001），处理痛苦农民的需求（F = 22.93, p < 0.001），与农民谈论他们的幸福（F = 16.47, p < 0.001），知道何时向农民推荐额外的支持（F = 19.10, p < 0.001），知道向何处转介农民以获得额外支持（F = 14.00, p < 0.001），在3个月的随访中保持。培训前后，参与者将其客户转介到农民特定心理健康干预（www.ifarmwell.com.au）的行为意愿增加（F = 48.26, p < 0.001），并在3个月的随访中保持。培训并没有显著改变参与者的生活质量或工作压力。研究结果表明，一个简短的、量身定制的培训计划显著提高了农村支持工作者认识和管理其农业客户困境的信心。
Recognising and Managing Distress Among Farming Clients: An Evaluation of Brief Training for Rural Financial Counsellors and Other Non-Clinical Rural Support Workers
Objective
To evaluate the impact of a tailored, brief, 3-h training program to help Rural Financial Counsellors and other non-clinical rural support workers recognise and manage distress experienced by their farming clients.
Setting
Rural, regional and remote Australia.
Participants
Rural support workers (N = 75; primarily Rural Financial Counsellors and Family and Business mentors) undertaking a 2-part, online training programme for recognising and managing distress in farmers.
Design
Individual questionnaires were collected before the first workshop, after the second workshop, and 3 months post completion of both workshops.
Results
Seventy-five participants provided pre-training data. A series of mixed models for repeated measures identified significant improvements in participants' confidence in recognising and managing farmers' distress pre- to post-training. Specifically, increases in confidence in differentiating mild distress from distress requiring professional help (F = 11.30, p < 0.001), skills to use time well (F = 14.17, p < 0.001), recognising distress (F = 9.16, p < 0.001), dealing with the needs of distressed farmers (F = 22.93, p < 0.001), talking to farmers about their wellbeing (F = 16.47, p < 0.001), knowing when to refer farmers for additional support (F = 19.10, p < 0.001), knowing where to refer farmers for additional support (F = 14.00, p < 0.001), were maintained at the 3-month follow-up. Pre- post-training, participants' behavioural intentions to refer their clients to a farmer-specific mental health intervention (www.ifarmwell.com.au) increased (F = 48.26, p < 0.001), which was maintained at 3-month follow-up. The training did not significantly change participants' quality of life or work stress.
Conclusions
Findings suggest that a brief, tailored training programme significantly increases rural support workers' confidence in recognising and managing distress in their farming clients.
