Treatments tested in this trial

  • professional caregiver

    Other intervention

    Care professionals will be questioned using a self-administered Quality of Life at Work scale, as well as a second scale (before and after training, with one test per day for 3 consecutive working days) asking about the number of work situations involving behavioral disorders in the residents under their care, and how they use the HAPNeSS method to deal with these situations. The effects of the HAPNeSS method on caregivers' professional practices (actions taken, performance of tasks, relations with residents, etc.) and their feelings on the subject, will be collected in two semi-structured interviews (with half the participants selected at random) conducted before and after the training course by the research team's occupational psychologist.
