Aim And Objective: To delineate contemporary practice of registered nurses working in rural and remote areas of Australia.
Background: Despite the implementation of strategies to address challenges reported by rural and remote nurses, concern remains over safety and quality of care, the well-being of nurses and retention of the nursing workforce. Twenty years on, geographically dispersed nurses still experience scarce human and material resources.
Background: International research has shown that during work integrated learning (WIL) undergraduate nursing students may experience stress, self-doubt, and coping issues, however personal qualities these students bring to their WIL journey or those needed to succeed during WIL remain unknown.
Objective: To describe the views of students midway through their Bachelor of Nursing program regarding personal qualities they bring to and need for WIL success.
Design: This article reports on a descriptive study that used an electronic questionnaire to collect the data.
Objective: To undertake a systematic review of available qualitative research literature to determine what women need to successfully transition to motherhood during the early postnatal period and whether postnatal home care delivered by midwives supports this process.
Design: The transition from woman to mother is a significant occurrence, one that requires adjustments on physical, psychological and social levels. A qualitative systematic review design was chosen to ensure both humanistic and interactive concepts related to what women need to successfully transition to motherhood during the early postnatal period were identified.
