Background: Nursing students' clinical learning is premised on experiences in clinical placements in nurse education, with the processes and outcomes of tripartite meetings among the student, nurse preceptor and teacher being central components. The tripartite meetings form the basis and framework for stakeholders' dialogue and collaboration and have the central purpose of facilitating student learning and development and assessing the students' achievement against predetermined learning outcomes for the placement period. Students' experiences with tripartite meetings seems to be an underexplored field, and therefor this study aimed to explore first-year nursing students' learning experiences within tripartite clinical placement meetings in nursing homes.

Background: Understanding the place of death for individuals with mental and behavioural disorders (MBDs) is essential for identifying disparities in healthcare access and outcomes, as well as addressing broader health inequities within this population.
Aims: To examine the place of death among individuals in Sweden with the underlying cause of death reported as a MBD and compare variations between diagnostic groups, as well as explore associations between place of death and individual, sociodemographic and clinical factors.
Method: This population-level analysis used death certificate data (gender, age, underlying cause of death and place of death) recorded between 2013 and 2019 and other national register data.
