Abstract
New nursing staff members are libable to suffer from stress-related disorders such as insomnia, anorexia and/or truancy. Some are obliged to quit their jobs early. In our hospital, we have carried out a type of “group collage therapy” for the purpose of giving mental and physical relaxation to novice nurses. In this study, we have analyzed the responses of the new nurses to our of questionnaire about the hands-on training and the experience they had gotten thus far, and got one hypothesis that our “group collage therapy” is positively related to a speedy recovery from their working stress. We report this study results with some bibliographic considerations.
