Protocol to examine the feasibility and acceptability of a randomized controlled trial of a chaplain-delivered compassion intervention to improve psychological safety among interprofessional healthcare teams
This study will provide data on the acceptability and feasibility of a chaplain-delivered team intervention for interprofessional healthcare teams working in oncology. The findings will inform the design of a future study to examine this innovative and scalable approach to increase access, equity, and inclusion of burnout prevention and mitigation among all healthcare providers. Additionally, this work will improve the scientific rigor of research on burnout by developing a novel, objective, and low-burden assessment toolkit.
