Mobile Wellness Program for Nurses with Rotating Shifts using Social Messenger Service: A Proposed Design

Abstract

Nurses with rotating shifts face unique challenges in maintaining their wellness. This paper proposes a mobile wellness program for nurses with rotating shifts using a social messenger service. The program is designed to be accessible, convenient, and engaging for nurses with busy and unpredictable schedules. The program will focus on three key areas of wellness: physical health, mental health, and sleep. Nurses will be able to access information and resources on these topics through the social messenger service such as KakaoTalk have become one of the most frequently used tools s in South Korea. They will also be able to connect with other nurses in the program to share tips and support each other. The program will be evaluated using a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative data will be collected on nurse participation and engagement. Qualitative data will be collected through interviews with nurses to learn about their experiences with the program and its impact on their wellness. This proposed mobile wellness program has the potential to make a significant contribution to the well-being of nurses with rotating shifts. By providing nurses with access to information, resources, and support, the program can help them to improve their physical and mental health, and sleep.
