Get Vitals is built on a foundation of rigorous research and evidence based practices. Our platform combines behavioral science, clinical insights, and real world validation to deliver meaningful support for healthcare professionals.
Get Vitals is grounded in decades of research on healthcare worker burnout, stress management, and behavioral interventions. Our approach is informed by studies from leading institutions and validated through clinical practice.
We've synthesized findings from psychology, nursing research, and organizational behavior to create interventions that are both scientifically sound and practically effective for the unique challenges healthcare workers face.
Book a DemoEvidence based techniques for stress reduction, emotional regulation, and resilience building specifically adapted for healthcare environments.
Interventions informed by studies involving healthcare professionals and related populations, supporting their relevance and effectiveness.
Continuous evaluation and refinement based on feedback from healthcare workers and organizational outcomes.
Our platform is built on four foundational studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of evidence-based interventions for healthcare worker wellbeing.
Study: Reducing Burnout and Resignations among Frontline Workers: A Field Experiment (Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory, 2022)
What they did: Over six weeks, 911 dispatchers across nine U.S. cities received weekly emails prompting them to write anonymous peer-advice messages to colleagues.
Results:
Why it matters: Shows powerful burnout reduction through asynchronous, writing-based peer support, with no need for in-person or live virtual sessions.
Study: Preventing intrusive memories after trauma via a brief intervention… (Molecular Psychiatry, 2018)
What they did: Motor vehicle accident patients briefly recalled their trauma and then played Tetris for ~20 minutes within six hours of the event.
Results:
Why it matters: Demonstrates that visuospatial distraction alone, without therapy, can reduce trauma-related flashbacks by interfering with memory consolidation.
Study: Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) for Healthcare Workers (JAMA Internal Medicine, 2019)
What they did: Compared an 8-week MBSR program to standard stress education among healthcare professionals.
Results:
Why it matters: Validates meditation as a habit-based, non-app intervention proven to reduce burnout effectively.
Study: Rosenthal et al. (2023). Testing an Intervention to Improve Health Care Worker Well‑Being via a Peer‑To‑Peer Support Program. JAMA Network Open
What they did: Cluster RCT in NICUs, with proactive, scheduled peer-to-peer check-ins where staff could share concerns, feedback, and experiences with colleagues and supervisors.
Results:
Why it matters: Demonstrates the value of structured, felt listening and upward communication in reducing burnout, empowering staff and improving organizational responsiveness.
