Purpose: This study aimed to identify the association between caregivers' psychological suffering and posttraumatic growth (PTG) after patient death.
Design And Methods: Participants were a total of 254 caregivers, including nurses, nursing assistants, social workers, and care workers.
Findings: Higher psychological suffering, in terms of expanding self-consciousness, change of values, and spiritual sublimation, had a positive correlation with PTG. For nurses and nursing assistants, the change of values and spiritual sublimation had a positive correlation with PTG. For social workers, the higher self-consciousness was associated with greater PTG. For care workers, the expanded self-consciousness and lower helplessness had a positive correlation with PTG.
Practice Implications: These findings will serve as a basis for the development of supportive programs to assist caregivers in improving PTG after patient death.

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is highly prevalent and disabling, especially in agriculture sectors. However, there is a gap in LBP prevention and intervention studies in these physically demanding occupations, and to date, no studies have focused on horticulture workers. Given the challenges of implementing interventions for those working in small businesses, self-management offers an attractive and feasible option to address work-related risk factors and manage LBP.

Background: Prompts offer a promising strategy to promote client engagement in internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT). However, if the prompts do not meet the needs of clients, they can potentially be more obtrusive rather than helpful.
Objective: The aim of this study was to test if prompts tailored based on timing and frequency, aligned with preintervention goal setting, can increase usage and the efficacy of a therapist-supported ICBT stress recovery intervention for health care workers.
