Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The structure of consultation for mid-career professional caregivers indicated five factors such as “problem solving skills.” “empathic understanding and active listening.” “mental and behavioral self-control.” “sociability” and “awareness.”We conducted an interventional approach for mid-career professional caregivers.The feelings of fatigue were significantly decreased and quality of sleep among colleagues and subordinates of the mid-career professional caregivers significantly decreased and increased respectively after the intervention. However, the mid-career professional caregivers were working with a higher psychological strain than their colleagues and subordinates. Our findings suggest that it is necessary to intervene to reduce the psychological strain of mid-career professional caregivers.
