Abstract

Compassion fatigue is a common mental health problem experienced by rescuers. It is a phenomenon of psychological discomfort caused by the lack or excess of empathy in the implementation of relief. The main manifestation is post-traumatic stress disorder, the reduction of interest and ability of empathy, and the increase of job burnout. Oncology nurses have a higher incidence of compassion fatigue due to greater pressure caused by the complex work environment. The current interventions on the compassion fatigue of oncology nurses abroad, such as Self-Care, Compassion Fatigue Resiliency Program, Mindfulness Training, Educational Intervention, arts therapies, and others, can help improve nurse's quality of service and physical and mental health. However, there is a relative lack of domestic research, and nurse researchers should carry out such studies more actively to provide a reference for the improvement of nurses' mental health situation.
