Sponsor: Saglik Bilimleri Universitesi

Summary

This clinical trial will test individual wellness coaching for 44 nurses who provide cancer care. Wellness means balance across physical, emotional, social, and other areas of life. The main questions are: Does wellness coaching improve nurses' quality of life at work? Does wellness coaching improve nurses' wellness? Nurses will be grouped according to their work area: inpatient wards, intensive care units, or outpatient clinics. Within each work area, researchers will assign nurses by chance to one of two groups. Each nurse will have an equal chance of joining either group. One group will receive individual wellness coaching for eight weeks. The control group will continue usual work routines without receiving wellness coaching or educational materials from the research team during the assessment period. An informational brochure about wellness coaching will be offered after completion of all scheduled outcome assessments, including the assessment three months after the intervention period. Researchers will compare changes in quality of life and wellness between the groups. Participants will: Attend individual coaching sessions in person if assigned to the coaching group. Sessions will take place once a week for eight weeks. Each session will last about 45 to 50 minutes. Answer questionnaires before the intervention period and immediately after it. Answer questionnaires again one and three months after the intervention period. Coaching will focus on exploring personal needs and setting goals. Topics will include strategies for looking after their health, managing stress, and balancing work and personal life.
