Background and Aim: Supplying safe and adequate blood is one of the primary goals of blood transfusion organizations worldwide. Due to the increased demand for blood and blood products, the need for more blood donors is urgent. This study aimed to design and validate a psychological and spiritual care educational package for blood donors.
Methods: This mixed-method study (qualitative and quantitative) involved document analysis and descriptive -analytical methods. The statistical population consisted of all blood donors in Yazd province in 2023. Thirty-two participants were selected through purposeful and available sampling. Data were collected through literature review and semi-structured interviews and analyzed to develop the educational package. Validation was performed using an expert panel and CVR and CVI indices.
Results: Qualitative findings identified 36 propositions in the initial package. Quantitative analysis confirmed 15 propositions with sufficient content and face validity, organized into 12 training sessions of 45 minutes each. The minimum acceptable values for the validation of the data were 0.60 for the CVR index and 0.79 for the CVI index.
Conclusion: The designed educational package demonstrates appropriate validity for educational use and for improving the psychological and spiritual well-being of blood donors. |
