Summary

Objective: To examine the preconditions for the successful implementation of a workplace intervention and to evaluate the implementation process of a combined workplace intervention to improve the vitality of healthcare professionals within a Dutch healthcare organization. Methods: Preconditions were examined from three different perspectives (i.e., research, management, and healthcare professionals). The multifaceted implementation strategy consisted of six components, including a needs assessment, a workshop on workload, and a workshop on sleep. Results: Regarding intervention reach, out of the 248 healthcare professionals, 211 (85.1%) attended the workshop on workload, and 206 (83.1%) attended the workshop on sleep. Satisfaction scores (0-10) for the workshop on workload and the workshop on sleep were 6.9 (SD = 1.1) and 8.2 (SD = 0.7), respectively. Conclusion: The multifaceted implementation strategy for the combined workplace intervention was partially carried out as intended.
