Increasing knowledge of stress reduction strategies for school bus drivers : a quality improvement DNP project
Work-related stress is a significant challenge impacting employee well-being, particularly among school bus drivers. This project aimed to enhance stress management awareness among school bus drivers through educational interventions focused on awareness of mindfulness and resilience techniques. Pre-intervention surveys revealed baseline awareness levels, while post-intervention surveys showed improvements in understanding stress triggers, mindfulness techniques, resilience principles, and stress reduction programs. The findings suggest that targeted educational interventions effectively increased participants' awareness of stress management strategies. Specifically, participants demonstrated enhanced knowledge of mindfulness and resilience techniques, indicating improved coping abilities in the face of workplace stressors. Additionally, there was an increased awareness of available stress reduction programs, highlighting a greater understanding of resources for managing stress. These results underscore the importance of investing in employee wellness programs to create supportive work environments. By recognizing the significance of stress management and providing employees with practical tools for coping, organizations can foster healthier and more productive workplaces. In conclusion, this project provides valuable insights into stress management among school bus drivers, showing the effectiveness of educational interventions in enhancing awareness and equipping employees with essential stress management skills. Further research and development in this area can lead to ongoing improvements in employee well-being and organizational success.
