The objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the CARE-MI group intervention in reducing symptoms of post-traumatic stress and moral injury in support staff working with individuals diagnosed with physical or mental health conditions (psychosocial personnel). The study also seeks to assess its impact on symptoms of anxiety and depression, as well as its potential to improve overall well-being. We will conduct a multicomponent study involving several pre-existing teams from collaborating centers, allowing the intervention to be evaluated in different institutional settings. This is a multilevel randomized trial, with each group randomly assigned, through blinded allocation using a computer program, to either the intervention group or a wait-list control group. Participants will be assessed at three time points: pre-intervention, post-intervention, and at a 6-month. This trial is part of a larger research project that includes several related studies. Each study addresses a specific population and/or intervention, but all share the overarching aim of Coping and adaptation for recovery from moral injury.
