What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Mindfulness Booster TrainingBehavioural
Four additional mindfulness booster sessions after the 4-week MBI program.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Intervention | Experimental | Participants will participate in 4 weeks of the Mindfulness-Based Intervention (MBI) and then will be invited to continue to participate in 4 additional Mindfulness Booster Training. Receives: Behavioral: Mindfulness Booster Training; Behavioral: Mindfulness-Based Intervention (MBI) |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in measure of stress
Stress will be measured using the Perceived Stress Scale, a short-form 4 item scale with a range of 0 to 16, with higher scores representing greater stress. Baseline responses will be compared to 4-week assessment responses of the control and intervention groups. Results between the control and intervention groups will be compared for statistical significance.
Measured: Baseline, 4-weeks, 3-months, 6-months
Secondary outcomes (1)
Change in measure of burnout
Burnout is measured using the 19-item Copenhagen Burnout Inventory including subscales assessing personal burnout, work-related burnout and patient-related burnout. Scores range from 0 to 100. Total score on the scale is the average of the scores on the items with a higher mean representing greater burnout. Baseline responses will be compared to 4-week assessment responses of the control and intervention groups. Results between the control and intervention groups will be compared for statistical significance.
Measured: Baseline, 4-weeks, 3-months, 6-months
