Relevance for clinical practice
In LTC facilities, seniors with abilities have the potential to adhere to and engage in activities of a nurse-led mindfulness-based intervention. While senior residents’ mental health and spiritual well-being typically decline overtime, results of the present study suggest that MBEC should be integrated into regular LTC institutional routines, particularly for newly relocated residents; health care professional with considerable trainings should be considered to lead on-going mindfulness group sessions in order to maximize MBEC benefits.
