Intimate Partner Violence and family Violence in Regional Western Australia: Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of Social Workers.
In the Midwest region of Western Australia, rates of intimate partner and family violence (IPV/FV) are high. We undertook research into social workers’ knowledge, attitudes, and skills as part of addressing this significant public health issue. Social workers come into contact with people experiencing IPV/FV in multiple settings, so their understandings and responses are critical to the prevention and interventions related to violence against women. The goal of the research was to determine the issues that the social workers in this region needed to be addressed that could assist in tackling the problem of IPV/FV. A questionnaire included open-ended questions to capture information on respondents’ profiles, knowledge, attitudes, practices, and education around IPV/FV, with 29 of 37 social workers working in the region responding. We also elicited respondents’ recommendations related to training and service delivery. Despite working in many settings, most social workers had contact with people experiencing IPV/FV and had reasonable confidence and knowledge that showed an understanding of the complexity of FV, including why women stay in violent relationships.

Interprofessional education in research and community-based programmes: Main challenges in undergraduate programmes implementation.

Anaesthetic nurse specialist's role in perioperative anaesthetic management of patients who are morbidly obese
The prevalence of Morbid Obesity (MO) is growing globally with a significant impact on all aspects of healthcare, including perioperative care. AAGBI (2015) emphasised that the perioperative management of MO patients presents important organisational and practical issues. However, some limited data or guidelines comment on whether surgeons, anaesthetists, and nurses routinely take special precautions in managing MO patients undergoing elective orthopaedic operative procedures. The responsibility of an Anaesthetic Nurse Specialist (ANS) is to provide high-quality perioperative anaesthetic assistance to ensure the welfare of patients.

Incentivizing Sleep in Continuing Professional Development
The science of learning (learning science) is an interprofessional field that concerns itself with how the brain learns and remembers important information. Learning science has compiled a set of evidence-based strategies, such as distributed practice, retrieval practice, and interleaving, which are quite relevant to continuing professional development (CPD). Spreading out study and practice separated by cognitive breaks (distributed practice), testing oneself to check mastery and memory of previously learned information (retrieval practice), and mixing the learning of distinct but related material (interleaving) represent strategies that are underutilized in CPD.

Feasibility of conducting a clinical trial with colchicine in primary care to prevent the development of pulmonary complications during the COVID-19 pandemic. COLCHICOVID
At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic there was no effective treatment and pulmonary complications generated most admissions and mortality, especially in >60 years with comorbidities. In this context, the use of colchicine was considered given its antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic effect 1,2,3,4. The primary care (PC) setting was considered because it was the first level of care and where the target population was concentrated, and because nursing care was crucial for infected patients in home isolation. The objective was to investigate whether the early use of colchicine in patients with COVID-19, >60 years old and with comorbidities at risk of developing severe pulmonary complications, reduced their incidence and mortality and to assess the safety of its use.

Global Health Competency Integration and Credentialing in Nursing Education
Global health issues, encompassing factors such as population health disparities, governmental policies, and pandemics, significantly influence care delivery across all healthcare system levels. The interconnected nature of healthcare today underscores the importance of interprofessional collaboration for promoting individual and population health and wellness. Despite this, a noticeable gap exists in global health content coverage within nursing programs. A systematic approach was undertaken to address this gap to integrate purposeful global health competencies into nursing programs. By doing so, healthcare providers can be better equipped with the necessary knowledge to tackle health disparities effectively worldwide. Strategies of how a nursing program embedded interprofessional global health competencies into both undergraduate and graduate curricula will be shared.

Palliative care: economic challenges for researchers
Palliative care services have seen a tremendous expansion in recent years, and palliative care needs are likely to expand further in the future. This begs the question,‘must everything that can be done, be done?’ (Wichmann et al, 2017). The economic challenges for researchers in palliative care is an emerging and challenging topic. Knowing where, how and how much is spent is fundamental for palliative care (PC) provision to be increasingly efficient and with lower costs. To accomplish this, there are three important factors to consider: early access to PC ( Cassel,2014); specialised PC using standardised procedures ( Bickel and Ozanne, 2017) and informal and home-based PC (McCarthy et al, 2015; May et al, 2018). Beyond the costs, one of the most challenging factors in palliative care provision arises from the ethical values of health care.

We present results from the first survey among Austrian CHN, conducted in spring 2023 by the Department of Economy and Health, University for Continuing Education, Krems

Sharps injuries and reports of occupational exposure among nurses.
Globally, acute injuries represent one of the most serious occupational hazards among health care workers, with more than 2 million occupational exposures among 35 million health workers annually, according to the World Health Organization. In our own study conducted on the basis of registers obtained from 252 hospitals in Poland, we estimated that annually we deal with over 13.5 thousand acute injuries among only 3 professional groups (nurses, doctors, paramedics), and that every second incident of injury is not reported anywhere. Nurses who participated in training in the prevention of occupational infections reported injuries significantly more often. Participation in post-exposure management training did not have a significant impact on injury reporting, but the duration of the training did.

A complete statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3. Risk ratios (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to express the results of dichotomous outcomes using random or fixed-effect models. The chi-square test and I2 test were used to calculate heterogeneity.

Nurse educator retention: Motivators that influence entering and staying in the teaching profession
The nurse faculty shortage has impacted the nursing workforce that is needed to fulfill the healthcare needs of society. Nursing academia has an increasing challenge to recruit and retain nurse educators. Reasons for leaving nursing academia are well-documented. Understanding what factors motivate nurse educators to remain in the teaching profession can improve strategies for retention. The objective of this phenomenological study was to explore nurse educators' motivating factors that influence their decision to remain in academia.

The potential of community nursing in mitigating cardiovascular and fall risks among the community-dwelling elderly
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death among the elderly (65+ years), who also face an elevated risk of fall-related injuries and their resulting comorbidities (FALL). Both health outcomes are associated with enormous social costs. Costs could be reduced with targeted interventions, which – as we propose – could be implemented or orchestrated in part by community nurses. We present an inventory of preventive interventions for CVD and FALL that could be implemented within routine tasks of community nurses, or by slight extension thereof, and fit into the Public Health Intervention Wheel. To ensure consistency, most proposed interventions were randomized controlled trials where outcome measures corresponded to clinically relevant CVDs or FALL risk factors or outcomes, and the referred studies enrolled community-dwelling elderly persons in high-income countries. We processed (when possible) the results of existing scoping reviews, meta-analyses, Cochrane reviews, and, in some compelling cases, single RCTs and cost-benefit estimates.

Assessment of the intensity of stress experienced and strategies for coping with stress among nursing staff in anesthesiology and intensive care units
Throughout the history of nursing, we can see nursing staff playing an invaluable role in society. Modern nurses - educated people, independently making decisions regarding the patient and performing nursing, preventive, therapeutic, diagnostic and rehabilitation services. The workload, the impact of physical and mental factors in the performance of duties and the constant responsibility for the highest values: the health and lives of people cause the work of nurses to be burdened with stress. This phenomenon has become known as a disease of civilization and burnout syndrome (occupational burnout) has been included in ICD 11 (International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision). With the frequent appearance of the concept of stress, researchers have also focused their interest on the causes and ways of coping with it.
