Objective: The objective of this review is to explore the experiences and attitudes of physicians, nurses, and nursing assistants regarding task-shifting and task-sharing in hospitals.
Introduction: Despite multiple health care professionals performing overlapping tasks, the need for effective task-shifting and task-sharing remains a concern. Understanding task-shifting and task-sharing experiences, as well as the attitudes of health care providers in hospitals, is essential for providing safe and patient-appropriate care with limited human resources.
Inclusion Criteria: Qualitative studies that examine the experiences and attitudes of physicians, nurses, and nursing assistants in hospitals regarding task-shifting and task-sharing will be included. The review will include physicians, advanced practice nurses who are nurse practitioners or clinical nurse specialists, registered nurses, and nursing assistants. Midwives, pharmacists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, and students will be excluded.
Methods: PubMed, MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Cochrane Database, and Web of Science will be searched as part of a 3-step search strategy. We will search for unpublished research and gray literature using Google Scholar and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses. Studies published in English or Japanese from the time each database was established to the present will be considered for inclusion. The methodological quality of all studies will be evaluated by screening against the inclusion criteria and by at least 2 critical evaluations using the standardized JBI checklist. Synthesized results will be pooled by meta-aggregation and published as a ConQual Summary of Findings.
Review Registration: PROSPERO CRD42023409612.

Objective: We aimed to determine the most important perceived barriers to the implementation of self-administered training and assessment in surgical education according to subject matter experts. With these findings, design thinking was used to explore possible interventions and develop a theory of change for overcoming identified barriers. Specifically, implementation was focused on expanding the surgical skills of associate clinicians (ACs) in low-to-middle-income countries (LMICs).
