Abstract:

When organising shift work, healthcare managers are required to cover the service across 24 hours in a way that maximises job performance – which includes minimising sickness absence related to work, and creating conditions that allow nursing staff to perform their scheduled tasks. This study aimed to investigate the association between characteristics of shift work in acute hospital wards and nursing staff job performance, in terms of sickness absence and compliance with vital signs observations. This was a retrospective longitudinal observational study using routinely collected data on nursi

Abstract:

This study is an exploration of five children’s relationship with the existential as it is played out in their everydayness at the nursery. Previous research in the field has looked at teachers’ perceptions of pre-school children’s existential questions, showing, thus, a place for a study on children’s existential encounters. My focus lies with the subjective meanings and the emotional qualities of these encounters, specifically how they are embodied in children’s play in the form of a word but also an object, an image, a movement or silence as well as in their ordinary doing and their very be

Abstract:

Psychosocial support is said to be an inherent component of nursing care and a major focus of palliative care. Literature exists which outlines perceptions of the psychosocial needs of patients and how psychosocial support should be provided. However, there is a lack of empirical evidence on how psychosocial support is operationalised in practice. This study provides a valuable and substantial new contribution to the evidence on the psychosocial needs expressed by patients in a hospice ward and how nurses immediately respond to these needs within their everyday practice.

Surgical processes are a complex function of a number of inter-related factors that include individual skills, team working and operating theatre environment.

There are studies made about assessing non-technical skills performed in the operating theatre but studies made to assess theatre nurses‘ technical skills have been lacking until recently.
