Download or read book Compassion Fatigue written by Charles R. Figley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1995. Traumatology, or the field of traumatic stress studies, has become a dominant focus of interest in the mental health fields only in the past decade. Yet the origin of the study of human reactions to traumatic events can be traced to the earliest medical writings in Kunus Pyprus, published in 1900 B.C. in Egypt. Many factors account for the recent emergence of this field, including a growing awareness of the long-term consequences of shocking events. Among these consequences are violence toward others, extraordinary depression, dysfunctional behavior, and a plethora of medical maladies associated with emotional stress. This is the latest in a series of books that have focused on the immediate and long-term consequences of highly stressful events. The purposes of the book, then, are (a) to introduce the concept of compassion fatigue as a natural and disruptive by-product of working with traumatized and troubled clients; (b) to provide a theoretical basis for the assessment and treatment of compassion stress and compassion fatigue: (c) to explain the difference between compassion fatigue and PTSD, burnout, and countertransference; (d) to identify innovative methods for treating compassion fatigue in therapists, and (e) to suggest methods for preventing compassion fatigue.

Download or read book Intervention: Reducing Compassion Fatigue written by Al Jameson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to help religious leaders, professional counselors, concerned family members, and individuals offer viable, appropriate levels of care to someone with an addiction problem, one who refuses to accept assisted-living conditions or comply with medical advice. Using tools in this book can increase awareness of the issue and acceptance of recovery. Learn how to avoid compassion fatigue while using healthy personal boundaries. Because these tools are likely used in an emotional setting, the least emotionally involved helper or leader is the best person for attempting an organized intervention. Concerned others may be able to find serenity after going through this process. This book teaches a mini-intervention or one-on-one short meeting as a setup for a full-blown maxi-intervention later, if necessary. If the maxi-intervention is not successful at first, next steps and consequences are taught. These steps are in keeping with Jesus’ instructions on how to approach someone with an issue. This book compiles thirty-nine years of studying and experience of achieving compliance with the best of care for someone refusing help with a serious issue. In using these steps and illustrations, 90 percent of the full maxi-interventions result in beginning the first stages of treatment or recovery.

Van Riper and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day nurse put their own needs aside and priorities others, they enter unknown situation, and work endless hours to facilitate the healing process. Compassion fatigue in nurses is very real and very painful, emotionally, physically and psychologically. Compassion fatigue is created when personal boundaries are crossed in our work environment, this makes it challenging for a nurse to perform their jobs effectively. They may not know that these boundaries are being crossed, so it is important for all nurses to set these boundaries and pay close attention to them. It creates a situation where a nurse has turned off their feelings or stress has triggered feelings of anger and hopelessness from seeing trauma and devastating trauma (Yoder, 2010). Unfortunately this is something nurse have to cope with in there career, being able to recognize the warning signs is imperative in managing and treating compassion fatigue. Understanding compassion fatigue and treating it will help nurses in maintaining their profession as a nurse and provide stronger bed side care for patients. Nurses are trained to handle critical situations in the moment, but often are not prepared for the emotional aspect of caring for cancer patients, sick children, unexpected diagnosis and death; along with assisting the families with this process. In these situations nurses don't realize how much they affect our own feelings and personal balances. Being able to recognizing the warning signs of combat compassion fatigue is very important in treating it and caring for it. Compassion Fatigue can affect a person on all levels, including cognitive, emotional, behaviors, spiritually, and somatically. Often seen as anger, anxiety, fear, depression, change in affect, along with difficulty sleeping or reliving the experienced trauma. When emotions are overtaking the body it causes the stress and emotions to be stored with in our bodies creating somatic pain. This can include: rapid or irregular heart rates, sleeping difficulties, headaches and general body Compassion Fatigue 3 aches, a lowered immune system, difficulty breathing (Portnoy, 2011). Many surveys and questionnaires have been made to assist nurses and health care workers in assessing compassion fatigue, and combating it. These surveys help desirer the symptoms and signs of compassion fatigue, which can vary from person to person and mild, moderate and severe levels. Assessing which is the most effective way to evaluate staff for compassion fatigue would help introduce the interventions for nurse to heal form compassion fatigue. Often times people are in denial of their feelings and unable to determine if they are suffering from compassion fatigue. Implementing an annual evaluation tool for staff to perform would help identify the problems. This project will help identify which is the most effective way to evaluate for compassion fatigue allowing the interventions to bring the most benefit to the individual.
Book Synopsis Compassion Fatigue by : Christina N. Gabele
Download or read book Compassion Fatigue written by Christina N. Gabele and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project was to explore Compassion Fatigue (CF), the associated signs and symptoms, and how to combat it through interventions, programs, and activities. Healthcare workers, especially those working in high acuity areas are at high risk for developing Compassion Fatigue. The focus has moved from accepting burnout as a definite to researching and implementing interventions to avoid it. Little has been published about Advanced Practice Providers (APPs), specifically Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants, especially in the Emergency Department (ED) setting. The research needed to provide specifics on the degree in which it affects personal and professional well-being for this group remains to be studied. Interactions with patients, patient outcomes, and the quality of professional life, specifically job satisfaction, are plentiful about nurses, but not APPs. This project looked to expand on these terms in relation to APP's. The ProQOL scale was administered after APPs were given modules at baseline, two months, and five months and scale scores were calculated. The three modules included definitions of key concepts, interventions to combat Compassion Fatigue, and ways to increase awareness in one self and others. Each module built on the foundation of the prior content. The thought was that after providing incremental modules, APPs would have lower levels of Compassion Fatigue on the ProQOL scale due to integration of the suggestions into daily practice. Professional quality of life is the balance between Compassion Fatigue and Compassion Satisfaction; it is finding the balance to continue to provide good care to patients. Findings of the study showed a weak correlation between increased hours worked per week and a higher score within the subset of burnout within CF category of the ProQOL scale. This was addressed with the scheduler to limit hours worked per week.

Book Synopsis Reducing Compassion Fatigue by : Alaina Thompson
Download or read book Reducing Compassion Fatigue written by Alaina Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compassion fatigue is highly prevalent in nursing and is devastating to the health of nurses. Patient safety, job performance and nurse retention are all affected by the presence of compassion fatigue. Evidence shows education is effective in reducing compassion fatigue by teaching skills such as emotional intelligence, positive coping mechanisms and self-care strategies. The risk of experiencing compassion fatigue as a result of empathetic engagement with patients, which is an expected component of quality nursing supports the need for ongoing education to prevent compassion fatigue. An education intervention to address skills needed to prevent compassion fatigue and inform nurses of the concept of compassion fatigue is proposed and is expected to increase job satisfaction. A culture which enables to nurses to experience empathetic engagement with patients without experience lasting negative effects produces job satisfaction for nurses. Using the ProQOL V survey and the McCloskey and Mueller Satisfaction Scale the levels of compassion fatigue and job satisfaction will be measured before and after the education intervention for compassion fatigue is completed to determine the effectiveness of the education.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Background and Problem Statement. Compassion fatigue and burnout are commonly experienced by healthcare professionals due to working in stressful situations while utilizing their sense of self in the provision of care (Baguley et al., 2020; Lee et al., 2019; Zhang et al., 2018). Compassion fatigue and burnout are attributed to high turnover rates seen in the nursing field, estimated to reach 400,000 by 2025 (Brown et al., 2018). In addition to the financial burden incurred by healthcare systems, burnout can have detrimental health consequences for the nurses (Ameli et al., 2020; Lee et al., 2019; Pospos et al., 2018). Although most employers provide access to employee assistance programs and promote self-care, accessible and effective stress reduction strategies are rarely used in real-time. Addressing these issues through the implementation of strategies and supportive programs rooted in mindfulness has the potential to decrease burnout and improve retention (Brown et al., 2018). The need to address these issues inspires the following question: Does implementation of a mindfulness-based intervention in the workplace reduce the development of compassion fatigue and burnout among nurses and other healthcare professionals? Purpose and Aims. The purpose of this project was to implement and evaluate a mindfulness-based intervention for high-risk providers in a long-term healthcare facility. The aims of this project were: (a) to assess a baseline level of compassion satisfaction and compassion fatigue, which includes burnout and secondary traumatic stress, among the healthcare staff members; (b) to implement an effective and accessible mindfulness-based intervention; and (c) reduce the negative implications related to compassion fatigue and burnout. Implications for Practice. This project provided findings regarding the current levels of burnout and compassion fatigue experienced by patient-facing staff members and provided effective mindfulness-based strategies that can be utilized to actively mitigate stress and promote resiliency in the workplace. These findings should prompt future allocation of resources toward the reduction of burnout and compassion fatigue at the organizational level"--Abstract.
