Aim: The aim of this review was to uncover what motivates preregistration nursing students to speak up for patient safety during work integrated learning (WIL) and to develop an evidence-based safety motivation framework for use by educators, clinicians, and preregistration nursing students.
Design: This study used an integrative literature review design guided by Whittemore and Knafl's methodological framework.
Data Sources: Five research databases, CINAHL, MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, were searched for relevant peer reviewed research literature published in English between January 2011 and January 2024.
Background: During the emergent (ebb) phase (first 72 h), the adult person with a severe burn experiences loss of body heat, decreased metabolism, and poor tissue perfusion putting them at risk of hypothermia, increased morbidity, and mortality. Therefore, timely and targeted care is imperative.
Aim: The aim of this integrative literature review was to develop a framework of the factors contributing to hypothermia in adults with a severe burn injury during the emergent (ebb) phase.
Background: People with burn injury experiencing hypothermia are at risk of serious complications such as shock, multisystem organ failure, and death. There is limited information available for health professionals with regard to factors that contribute to restoration of normothermia after hypothermia in people with a major burn injury.
Objective: The aim of the study was to identify factors that contribute to normothermia restoration after hypothermia in people with 10% or more total body surface area (TBSA) burn in the first 24 h of admission to a burn care hospital.
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.
Background: Pregnancy, birth and child rearing are significant life events for women and their families. The demand for services that are family friendly, women focused, safe and accessible is increasing. These demands and rights of women have led to increased government and consumer interest in continuity of care and the establishment in Australia of birth centres, and the introduction of caseload midwifery models of care.

This qualitative study investigated midwives' perception of a team midwifery model of care implemented in North Queensland, Australia. A midwifery model of care is the use of primary health care principles to deliver care throughout the woman's entire pregnancy and postpartum period in partnership with other members of the health care team. Four focus groups were undertaken with 22 midwives to determine their perception of the team midwifery model of care.
