Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
1. Does NSSCEP reduce symptoms of burnout in pediatric oncology nurses?
2. Does NSSCEP improve stress management skills among pediatric oncology nurses? Researchers will compare nurses participating in the NSSCEP to a control group receiving a general technical skills program to see if NSSCEP reduces burnout and improves stress management.
Participants will:
1. Attend four educational sessions over one month, focusing on stress recognition, coping strategies, and resilience-building techniques
2. Complete weekly checklists to track their application of stress management skills
3. Participate in pre- and post-intervention surveys to assess burnout and stress levels

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The NSSCEP is a structured, four-session educational intervention delivered over several weeks. Each session focuses on evidence-based self-care techniques, including stress management, mindfulness, emotional regulation, and coping strategies tailored to the unique challenges of pediatric oncology nursing. The program is facilitated by trained professionals and includes interactive workshops, group discussions, and practical exercises to foster skill development. The study compares the NSSCEP intervention group to a control group receiving standard workplace support to assess its impact on nurse well-being.
This trial addresses a critical gap in workplace interventions for Jordanian nurses, where cultural and systemic factors may influence stress and burnout. By implementing the NSSCEP, the study seeks to provide a scalable model for supporting nurse mental health in high-stress specialties. The findings may inform hospital policies and future interventions to promote sustainable nursing practice in Jordan and similar settings.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Stress Self-Care Education Group
Participants in this arm will receive the Nurses' Stress Self-Care Educational Program (NSSCEP), consisting of four educational sessions over one month focused on stress recognition, coping strategies, and resilience-building techniques. Participants will also complete weekly checklists and pre- and post-intervention surveys to assess burnout and stress levels.
Nurses' Stress Self-Care Educational Program (NSSCEP)
A control intervention consisting of four 1-hour sessions over one month, focusing on general technical skills relevant to pediatric oncology nursing (e.g., procedural updates, equipment use). The program does not include stress management content. Participants complete weekly checklists and pre- and post-intervention surveys to measure burnout and stress levels.
Technical Skills Education Group
Participants in this arm will receive a general technical skills program unrelated to stress management, delivered over one month in four sessions. Participants will also complete weekly checklists and pre- and post-intervention surveys to assess burnout and stress levels.
General Technical Skills Program
A control program with four 1-hour sessions over one month, focusing on technical skills (e.g., procedural updates, equipment use) without stress management content. Includes weekly checklists and pre/post surveys to measure burnout and stress.
