Using concept mapping to inform the development of a transitional reintegration intervention program for formerly incarcerated people with HIV.

Background: Accessing HIV-related care is challenging for formerly incarcerated people with HIV. Interventions informed by the perspectives of these individuals could facilitate engagement with care and address competing priorities that may act as barriers to this process.

Methods: We used concept mapping to identify and prioritize the main obstacles to engaging with HIV-related care following prison release.

Economic evaluation of nurse practitioner and clinical nurse specialist roles: A methodological review.

Background: Advanced practice nurses (e.g., nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists) have been introduced internationally to increase access to high quality care and to tackle increasing health care expenditures.

The effectiveness of a nurse practitioner-led pain management team in long-term care: A mixed methods study.

Background: Considering the high rates of pain as well as its under-management in long-term care (LTC) settings, research is needed to explore innovations in pain management that take into account limited resource realities. It has been suggested that nurse practitioners, working within an inter-professional model, could potentially address the under-management of pain in LTC.

Objectives: This study evaluated the effectiveness of implementing a nurse practitioner-led, inter-professional pain management team in LTC in improving (a) pain-related resident outcomes; (b) clinical practice behaviours (e.

Cost-effectiveness of a nurse practitioner-family physician model of care in a nursing home: controlled before and after study.

Aims: To examine the cost-effectiveness of a nurse practitioner-family physician model of care compared with family physician-only care in a Canadian nursing home.

Background: As demand for long-term care increases, alternative care models including nurse practitioners are being explored.

Design: Cost-effectiveness analysis using a controlled before-after design.

Relationship Between Clinical Nurse Specialist Role Implementation, Satisfaction, and Intent to Stay.

Purpose/objective: There is a lack of research examining the relationship between role satisfaction and intent to remain in one's professional role from the perspective of nurses in advanced practice roles. The purpose of this study is to examine the strength of the relationship between clinical nurse specialist (CNS) role implementation, role satisfaction, and intent to remain in a CNS role.

Design: We conducted a secondary analysis of data from a cross-sectional survey.
