Developing a Resiliency Intervention to Support Healthcare Workers Engaged in the Provision of HIV Care
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 Feb 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The purpose of this study is to pilot an adapted resiliency-based mind-body intervention (the Relaxation Response Resiliency Program; the 3RP) for nurses that care for people with HIV (PWH) in the public sector in South Africa (SA). In Phase 1 \[NIH Grant Number: R34MH131426; Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) Ethics Reference Number: 220813\], the investigators conducted focus group discussions to solicit feedback on: the role of culture and perceptions of stress; the lived experiences of stress; sources of stress (e.g. occupational, trauma related); how stress impacts job functioning (specifically patient care); current coping strategies; and the intervention modules (content, number of sessions, session duration, program length, mode of delivery (e.g., virtual, in-person, hybrid approaches, use of coaches), etc.). In this phase 2, the investigators will conduct a small proof-of-concept study (N = 8-10), followed by a randomized pilot (N = 60) of nurses that care for PWH in the public sector in South Africa (SA) to test the feasibility and acceptability of the adapted intervention.
