Abstract in brief

  • This text discusses how psychological interventions can help healthcare professionals—like nurses, doctors, and social workers—build resilience, which is their ability to recover quickly from stress or traumatic events.
  • The researchers examined multiple studies, especially randomized controlled trials, to see if these interventions effectively improve mental health outcomes such as reducing stress, anxiety, depression, and enhancing overall wellbeing.
  • In total, 44 studies involving nearly 7,000 healthcare workers from high-income countries were reviewed to assess the impact of resilience-promoting programs, with a focus on mental health improvements and resilience factors.

Cochrane Review of the Literature - Resilience Training in Healthcare Workers There is room for cautious optimism regarding resilience training; however, the quality of the evidence to date is of low certainty despite the inclusion of 44 RCTs in the study. https://t.co/bAYnjPffj5
