Can washing hands calm the mind? VA tests mindfulness for stressed staff
NCT ID NCT05261282
Summary
This study tested whether a mindfulness program could improve the well-being of doctors and nurses and encourage better hand hygiene. Over 300 VA staff were randomly assigned to either receive mindfulness training or continue their usual routine. The training taught staff to use handwashing moments as a prompt to pause and practice mindfulness, aiming to reduce burnout and stress.
