Aim: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an oral health educational intervention designed for undergraduate nursing students.
Background: The role of oral health promotion and screening has been extended to non-dental health professionals, for example, nurses. To prepare the future workforce for these responsibilities, an educational intervention underpinned by Mezirow's Transformative Learning Theory was codesigned and implemented in an Australian undergraduate nursing program.
Both residential and day programs for eating disorders provide options for a step-up from standard outpatient care. However, there have not been any direct comparisons of their effectiveness and limited research on predictors of better outcomes from either setting. This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes and predictors from a transdiagnostic residential and day program for eating disorders.

This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of a co-designed educational approach developed to enhance nurses' ability to provide optimal care for patients with catheters.
Aim: The primary aim of this study was to enhance nurses' knowledge and skills in urinary catheterisation, care, and management.
Aim: To develop and test the psychometric properties of a self-administered scale to assess the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviour of nurses to support the self-management of patients living with indwelling urinary catheters.
Background: Nurses are pivotal in supporting patients with urinary catheter self-management to prevent potentially avoidable hospital presentations. However, no validated scale is available to assess nurses' attitudes and readiness for this task.
