Music Therapy and Humanization in ED Healthcare Professionals

Sponsor: Fundación Santa Fe de Bogota

Summary

Background: Healthcare professionals in emergency departments frequently experience stressful situations that could jeopardize their mental health, sense of purpose, and ability to empathize with patients, families, and colleagues. Research question: What is the impact of a short music therapy program on the intra- and interpersonal factors of humanized care among emergency nursing staff at the University Hospital Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá (FSFB)? Methodology: This research is a mixed-methods pilot and feasibility study. For the quantitative component, we will apply the HUMAS (Healthcare Professional Humanization Scale) and ProQOL (Professional Quality of Life) measure at the start and at the end of the music therapy program. For the qualitative component, focus group interviews will be conducted and analyzed via thematic analysis. Discussion: This study seeks to support the nursing staff of the FSFB emergency department through an interactive, creative, and participatory music therapy self-care program focused on one of the most important pillars of the institution: the humanization of care.
