Interventions to promote resilience and passion for work in health settings: A mixed-methods systematic review

Le résumé fourni par la source

Background: Resilience and passion for work are associated with better psychosocial wellbeing and professional quality of life for healthcare workers. Objective: To evaluate the characteristics and efficacy of interventions to promote resilience and passion for work in health settings. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across six databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, and PsycINFO) for articles published between January 2003 and February 2023. Studies utilizing both quantitative and qualitative methodologies were included. Methodological quality assessment was performed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Data from the included studies were analyzed using a convergent mixed methods design. Results: A total of 33 studies met the inclusion criteria. All reported on interventions designed to enhance resilience for healthcare workers. None reported on interventions to enhance passion for work. Interventions included mindfulness-based programs, psychoeducation workshops, stress management techniques, and professional coaching. Interventions varied widely in terms of delivery modality, format, content, intensity, duration, and outcomes. Of the studies reporting quantitative data, most (21/29) reported statistically significant improvements in resilience. Of the studies reporting qualitative data, all reported a positive impact of the intervention on resilience and psychological well-being. Conclusions: Overall, interventions designed to enhance resilience in health care settings appear to be effective across a variety of healthcare settings. The diversity of effective intervention approaches, delivery formats, intensity and duration suggest that brief, light-touch or self-directed online interventions may be equally as effective as more intensive, lengthy, in-person or group-based interventions. This provides health care organisations with the opportunity to select and flexibly implement interventions that align with organisational, and staff needs and preferences. Future research needs to explore effective approaches to building passion for work.
