Brief Summary

The proposed study aims to develop  and test the feasibility of the Nature-Based Intervention (NBI) program on the well-being of healthcare trainees. This study follows a mixed-method, open-label, single-group, pre-post quasi-experimental study design with one intervention group with assessments at baseline, post, and follow-up. The study would be conducted in two phases. The first phase, the development phase would include extensive literature review, expert interviews, and an online survey. The second phase, the feasibility phase would include pilot testing and the main intervention phase with the sample group. The sample of 16 healthcare trainees will be recruited for the study from the tertiary healthcare settings using purposive sampling. After obtaining informed consent, they would undergo the intervention of the NBI program for 6 to 10 weeks  within the healthcare campus. The assessments for the primary outcome variable (well-being) and secondary outcome variables (mindfulness, self-efficacy, sleep quality, and professional quality of life) would be carried out at baseline, post the NBI program and as follow up after three months.
