Resistance in health and healthcare: Applying Essex conceptualisation to a multiphased study on the experiences of Australian nurses and midwives who provide abortion care to people victimised by gender-based violence.

In this article, we explore the act of resistance by nurses and midwives at the nexus of abortion care and gender-based violence. We commence with a brief overview of a multiphased extended grounded theory doctoral project that analysed the individual, situational and socio-political experiences of Australian nurses and midwives who provide abortion care to people victimised by gender-based violence. We then turn to Essex's conceptualisation of resistance in health and healthcare and draw upon these concepts to tell a unifying and cohesive story about how nurses and midwives exercise their politics.

Adapting the Use of Mask Ed™ Simulation in Nursing Programmes During the COVID- 19 Pandemic.

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic toppled education delivery worldwide. Nursing education was no exception. The pandemic required nurse educators to quickly shift from face-to-face learning environments to remote and more virtual interactions.

Identifying the core components of a nursing home hospital avoidance programme.

Background: Nursing home hospital avoidance programmes have contributed to a reduction in unnecessary emergency transfers but a description of the core components of the programmes has not been forthcoming. A well-operationalised health-care programme requires clarity around core components to evaluate and replicate the programme. Core components are the essential functions and principles that must be implemented to produce expected outcomes.

Midwives' recognition and response to maternal deterioration: A national cross-sectional study.

Background: Early warning systems (EWS) are used across health care settings as a tool for the early identification of clinical deterioration and to determine the need to escalate care. Early detection of clinical deterioration and appropriate escalation of care in maternity settings is critical to the safety of pregnant women and infants; however, underutilization of EWS tools and reluctance to escalate care have been consistently reported. Little is known about midwives' use of EWS in the Australian context.

Research Ready Grant Program (RRGP) protocol: a model for collaborative multidisciplinary practice-research partnerships.

Background: Little attention has been given to the process of implementing or evaluating a structured academic-clinician (university-health service) research capacity-building (RCB) model within healthcare settings. We have developed a model for collaborative multidisciplinary practice-research partnerships called the Research Ready Grant Program (RRGP). The RRGP is informed by Cooke's (BMC Fam Pract 6:44, 2005) RCB framework and principles.
