Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Clinical Trial
Abstract: Compassion involves shared suffering and a desire to alleviate it, with family involvement improving patient outcomes, such as reducing relapse and hospital admissions. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the impact of a nurse-led intervention on compassionate care and family engagement among caregivers of mentally ill patients. A quasi-experimental design with 60 samples was used, employing socio-demographic data and structured interviews. Results showed significant improvements in compassionate care and family engagement in the experimental group, while the control group showed minimal changes. Thus, we show the effectiveness of nurse-led interventions in enhancing care and engagement.
