Utilizes model cases/related cases

Many of the model cases exhibited common signs of compassion fatigue such as high stress, dissatisfaction, severe exhaustion, and inability to connect with others

Compassion Fatigue implications

Basic Solutions

Overall model that can be utilized to preemptively identify signs of CF (compassion fatigue)

And what can be used as a solution

Breaks down solutions into three basic solutions involving debriefing following a traumatic accident, addressing the work-life balance and the need for strong support system, and the need for self-care

More knowledge required into how to effectively implement these solutions in work setting and empirical results to back them

Prevalence

Nursing Students

The relationship between compassion fatigue and coping strategies, empathy, and resilience

study found that, the prevalence of high risk of CF in Chinese nursing students during clinical exposure was low

nurses with passive coping are prone to possess low self-efficacy, and cannot have self-confidence to deal with stressful events

Are all nursing student exempt from compassion fatigue? What are some risk factors that could further increase their risk? Further research needed

experimental design 120 nurses from ICUs and emergency wards were recruited for the study through simple random sampling using lottery method. The nurses were randomly assigned to the intervention (60 nurses) and control groups (60 nurses)

They reported significant improvements in participants' self-compassion, mindfulness, and interpersonal conflict scores
