Purpose: The purpose of this preliminary, pre-post, interventional project was to (1) explore the pervasiveness of compassion fatigue & (2) promote self-care activities & evaluate the effectiveness of compassion fatigue education on reducing hospice nursing staffs' compassion fatigue symptoms in a single hospice care unit.Background and Rationale: In the nursing profession, staff are at increased risk for compassion fatigue because they frequently witness & are in contact with other people's suffering, trauma, & pain. This can lead to many internal and external consequences if not addressed. Compassion fatigue has been historically under-recognized, understudied, & undertreated. Thus, demonstrating how important projects like this are to retaining caring, compassionate, experienced nurses.Methodology: The project took place in the hospice unit at the Durham Veteran Affairs Medical Center (DVAMC). Project participants completed the Professional Quality of Life Tool Version 5 (ProQOL-5), a demographics questionnaire & a self-care habits survey prior to the intervention. Project participants then accessed the continuing education class Compassion Fatigue: Don't Forget to Care for Yourself When Caring for Others by Connie Vogel via Nurse.com. The ProQOL-5 & the same self-care habits survey served as the post-intervention assessment & were collected at 30- and 60-days post-intervention.Results: Only two nursing staff participated at all time periods. By the end of the study, participant JP21967 increased their compassion satisfaction by 7.32%, decreased their burnout by 20.83% & secondary trauma by 20.69%, & increased their self-care habits. Participant MA11978 decreased their compassion satisfaction by 11.36%, increased their burnout by 5% & secondary trauma by 13.64%, & decreased their self-care habits. These findings suggest that the degree to which people engage in self-care may lessen compassion fatigue.Conclusion: Although the purpose of this study was to reduce compassion fatigue among hospice nurses, context related barriers may have influenced participation. Further research is needed in the area of compassion fatigue not only for the sake of nurses but also for the sake of healthcare systems.
