Summary
This study tests whether a four-week online compassionate mind training program can reduce stress, burnout, and anxiety in healthcare staff. Sixty participants from a hospital trust will be randomly assigned to either the training or their usual support. They will fill out questionnaires before, during, and after the program, and again one month later.
