dc.description.abstract A common occurrence among healthcare professionals is a condition known as burnout which significantly impairs both the mental and physical health of individuals over time. To reduce burnout this study utilized a Train the Trainer model to decrease intervention costs and support healthcare professions with six weeks of workshops and one-on-one coaching. The workshops focused on psychological flexibility, work stress recovery, and supportive leadership. The results of the study show by the end of the intervention, participants had reduced burnout, sleep impairment, relationship conflict, and improved psychological detachment. Participants’ supportive leadership was not found to change. During the intervention resting heart rate was measured as a physiological indicator of burnout. The participants’ average resting heart rates showed a downward trend suggesting burnout was reduced. Overall, the results of the intervention suggest that the Train the Trainer model was effective in reducing participant burnout along with reducing intervention costs. en_CA
