Creative Arts Program for Healthcare Professional Burnout

This study is looking into whether creative arts programs can help healthcare professionals who are experiencing burnout, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety. You could participate in guided sessions focusing on visual arts, music, dance/movement, or writing/poetry. These sessions aim to help you connect with your work's purpose, develop coping skills, and connect with peers. To join, you must be a healthcare provider working at least 20 hours per week in a hospital setting and show specific signs of burnout based on a questionnaire. The study will measure how satisfied participants are with the creative arts programs after 12 weeks. The current status of this study is unclear.
