Overview
Brief Summary
In the first-year project of this study, oncology nurses have reported experiencing massive stress, insufficient communication ability, and the need for communication-related training. 70% of them had moderate or higher severity of workload, fatigue, and psychological distress (at the measure point) before being provided with Basic Remote Psychological Support Course (BRPSC). A month after BRPSC, some oncology nurses have indicated/affirmed the benefits of undergoing the comprehensive psycho oncology education training courses. Thus, the second- and third-year continuation projects are focused on the development and delivery of Multi-Psychological Empowerment Courses (MPEC) for oncology nurses

The change in oncology nurses' workload will be measured by the self-designed scale using VRS (Numerical Rating Scale). It measures the subjective perception of oncology nurses about their workload in the past week, with scores ranging from 0 to 10.The higher the score, the greater the workload of the oncology nurses.
The change in Physical and Psychological Symptoms

The change in oncology nurses' physical and psychological state will be measured by physical and psychological state survey. It use Numerical Rating Scale(VRS) 0-10. It is a 11 Point Likert Scale (e. g. 0 is no pain; 10 is unbearable pain).
