Chronic kidney failure (CRF) is an important health problem in the world and in our country. The use of hemodialysis as a treatment method has prolonged the life span of individuals with CRF; challenging and long treatment processes make the individual at risk for mental illnesses. It is an inevitable need to carry out psychosocial interventions to protect and improve the mental health of individuals, to ensure their adaptation to treatment processes, and to support them in coping with the difficulties they encounter. It is predicted that hope-focused motivational interviewing, which is a hope-enhancing intervention based on Snyder's Hope Theory, will be effective for individuals with low hope levels. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the protocol suitability of the research. This study is a single blind, randomized controlled trial. The universe of the research will consist of 44 individuals coming for treatment in the Hemodialysis Unit. The study will be carried out in the Hemodialysis Clinic between September 2021 and December 2022. Within the scope of the protocol, a preliminary application was made with two individuals.

Each session has goals and assignments for goals. Within the scope of the study, a hope tree will be created for everyone together with the patients to be used in the evaluation process of the interview sessions. Through the hope tree, it is aimed for the individual to set goals and discover the obstacles and solutions in reaching these goals. At the end of 8 weeks, the final test will be applied to the experimental and control groups. Following the post-test application, follow-up is planned at the end of the first month. The pre-application of the eight-week application protocol created for the purpose was made with two individuals. As a result of the preliminary application, it was observed that the stress, anxiety and depression levels of the individuals decreased and their hope levels increased. As a result of the preliminary application, it was concluded that the steps of the prepared application protocol were suitable for the study in line with the purpose determined with this patient group, and the protocol was transferred to the application phase as it was.
