NCT05977504

Brief Summary

In the first-year project of this study, oncology nurses have reported experiencing massive stress, insufficient communication ability, and the need for communication-related training. 70% of them had moderate or higher severity of workload, fatigue, and psychological distress (at the measure point) before being provided with Basic Remote Psychological Support Course (BRPSC). A month after BRPSC, some oncology nurses have indicated/affirmed the benefits of undergoing the comprehensive psycho oncology education training courses. Thus, the second- and third-year continuation projects are focused on the development and delivery of Multi-Psychological Empowerment Courses (MPEC) for oncology nurses
