Official title:
Art Therapy to Promote Wellbeing and Self-care in Resident Physicians.
This study evaluates if an art therapy intervention could lower resident physician's work-related stress and if it could promote their self-care.
The objective of this study is to determine if an art therapy intervention could promote the well-being of resident physicians of an university tertiary hospital, as specialized physicians trainees exposed to the risk of burnout. Using a cycle of 6 bimonthly sessions of group art therapy, the intervention stimulates the creative activity of the participants through various art materials and techniques. Next, they are invited to share their reflexions about the artworks produced, with the group and in presence of the art therapist. The study mainly evaluates the work-related stress and the self-care grade of the participants, before the intervention, just after it and after a follow-up period. ;
