Neurodiversity refers to the variation in human cognitive, sensory, and communication experiences and reframes deficits as differences. Rates and duration of hospitalisation in neurodiverse children are higher compared to their neurotypical peers. Despite increased admissions, paediatric medical hospitals are poorly equipped to adequately support their unique cognitive, sensory, behavioural, and communication needs, which can have negative impacts on the experiences of patients, families, and staff.

- The aim of the study was to explore nurses' and midwives' experiences with clinical supervision and to define how clinical supervision is characterized in existing literature.
- The scoping review analyzed 43 peer-reviewed articles from various databases, focusing on different types of supervision experiences across 15 countries and noting variations in definitions.
- The findings suggest that while there is some evidence on these experiences, significant gaps and inconsistencies in the definitions and practices of clinical supervision remain, highlighting the need for more research in this area.

Symptoms of D-MER present suddenly and can include hopelessness, sadness, nervousness, irritability, nausea, dread, palpitations, and a hollow feeling in the stomach. Although D-MER was first reported in 2007, it remains understudied to date and should not be confused with postnatal depression or anxiety disorders.

Article Synopsis
- Healthy ageing is important for older people and can be helped by how society supports them, but this support can sometimes be lacking.
- The TILDA project studies how to promote healthy ageing and finds out what older people and their support groups think about its efforts.
- Interviews with 15 organizations showed some limitations of TILDA, like not being inclusive enough, but also highlighted its benefits, like providing useful information to help plan for the needs of older people in the future.
