Abstract

Psychiatric nurses in hospitals faced stress and anger in nursing at COVID-19 pandemic, because there were so many restrictions in a ward. To propose high quality of care to patients, anger management of nurses is important. The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of the Anger Management Mindfulness program on mental health, physical and mental fatigue, resilience, and self-compassion of psychiatric nurses. Participants were 6 psychiatric nurses in 2 hospitals in Western Japan. Participants practiced the program in home individually once a week, total 3 times. They completed questionnaires of the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) to measure mental health, fatigue diagnose scale, resilience scale, self-compassion scale and free impression description pre and post the program. Results showed the followings. The mental fatigue and total fatigue significantly decreased. The GHQ score significantly decreased, but resilience and self-compassion score did not change. These findings revealed that the Anger Management Mindfulness programme had a positive impact on mental and total fatigue as well as mental health. Participants’ impression also supported these results. In future, we need to confirm these results including more participants.
