The aim of this study was to explore the lived experiences of people with colorectal cancer receiving chemotherapy using digital health symptom management technology and their family caregivers.

Conducting Co-Design with Older People in a Digital Setting: Methodological Reflections and Recommendations.

Introduction: Co-design has been identified as a participatory method to create person-centred integrated healthcare services that align with older people's values and lived experiences.

Description: Existing guidelines on conducting co-design primarily focus on in-person methods with limited guidance on using digital methods to collect data. This gap in knowledge is particularly pertinent when co-designing with older people who can experience challenges with digital literacy and accessibility.

Interpersonal and communication skills development in general nursing preceptorship education and training programmes: A scoping review.

Aim: The aim of this systematic scoping review is to examine and synthesise the available literature on developing interpersonal and communication skills in general nursing preceptorship education programmes.

Preceptors are integral in facilitating, guiding, and developing positive interpersonal relationships between the nursing student (the preceptee), the qualified nurse (the preceptor), and patients.

Older adults and family caregivers' experience of digital health technology in frailty care: A systematic review and meta-ethnography protocol.

Digital health technology has been identified as a valuable tool to support older adults with frailty needs in their home setting. Despite the numerous technologies and evaluations of these innovations, a synthesis of the older person and family caregivers' experience using technology for support self-management has not been conducted to date. A systematic review and meta-ethnography will be conducted in accordance with the PRISMA and eMERGe reporting guidelines.

'Value-based methodology for person-centred, integrated care supported by Information and Communication Technologies' (ValueCare) for older people in Europe: study protocol for a pre-post controlled trial.

Background: Older people receive care from multiple providers which often results in a lack of coordination. The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) enabled value-based methodology for integrated care (ValueCare) project aims to develop and implement efficient outcome-based, integrated health and social care for older people with multimorbidity, and/or frailty, and/or mild to moderate cognitive impairment in seven sites (Athens, Greece; Coimbra, Portugal; Cork/Kerry, Ireland; Rijeka, Croatia; Rotterdam, the Netherlands; Treviso, Italy; and Valencia, Spain). We will evaluate the implementation and the outcomes of the ValueCare approach.

Increasing the PharmD Pipeline, Encouraging Student Success, and Supporting the Underserved Through Pre-Pharmacy Advising.

Academic advising for pre-pharmacy students lacks best practice recommendations specific to the pharmacy profession. When considering contemporary challenges in pharmacy education, adoption of high-quality advising approaches will likely have a positive influence on professional school enrollment, general student success, and educational access for the traditionally underserved. As pre-health academic advising is an important component of student professional development, standardizing best-practice strategies in and around pharmacy programs will "[strengthen] the pharmacy pipeline" and "[raise] the profile of pharmacy" as stated in the 2021-2024 Strategic Plan Priorities, Goals and Objectives issued by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP).

Building research capacity and culture: Exploring nurses' experience of implementing a nurse-led clinical trial.

Aim: To explore the experiences of a nursing team who implemented an international nurse-led clinical trial in practice and understand the facilitators to their involvement.

Background: The role and responsibilities of the clinical nurse are advancing to encompass research activity to help inform evidence-based practice. However, several personal and organisational challenges can inhibit nurses' capacity to implement and undertake research within clinical practice.

A Call for Simplification and Integration of Doctor of Pharmacy Curricular Outcomes and Frameworks.

Pharmacy education faces an upcoming revision of accreditation standards designed to outline degree program requirements for training the next generation of pharmacists. At the same time, pharmacy educators are increasingly expected to integrate multiple other educational frameworks and recommendations from distinct groups into their curricula. With this list of expectations constantly expanding and changing, education leaders are forced to spend valuable time and resources trying to satisfy "checklists" instead of enhancing their programs.

Marketing mobile influenza vaccine clinics on a college campus.

Background: Influenza vaccination rates fall below public health targets. Compared with the general population, vaccination rates on college campuses are even lower. Since 2013, the University of Georgia College of Pharmacy and University Health Center (UHC) Pharmacy have collaborated to increase access to influenza vaccines by holding clinics at locations across campus.

Purpose: To synthesise existing qualitative evidence regarding the experiences of people living with cancer and their family caregivers using eHealth technology in their home setting.

Method: A narrative review using a systematic approach was utilised. Five databases (PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, PsycINFO and the Cochrane Library) were searched using a tailored search strategy to identify primary research articles published between January 2005 and May 2021.

Use of complexity theory in health and social care: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: Despite the use of a wide variety of improvement tools and approaches, healthcare organisations continue to struggle in several key areas. Complexity-informed approaches have the potential to offer health and social care a new paradigm for understanding, designing, implementing and evaluating solutions, yet so far has failed to gain the traction anticipated some years ago. There is a growing need for high quality syntheses of the existing knowledge base in this area and given the diversity of theory and approaches, a scoping review is the best approach to curate this knowledge.
