Women and all people with a cervix from underserved communities are known to have lower screening attendance rates than other groups, so it is vital to address barriers to attendance to increase screening uptake. This article describes a service innovation pilot project in north west England involving the delivery of opportunistic cervical screening via a mobile screening unit sited in convenient community locations. The aim was to identify precancerous changes and promote early treatment for moderate-to-severe dyskaryosis by increasing attendance rates among underserved communities. A total of 2,283 clients completed a cervical screen during the pilot period (between July 2024 and March 2026). Analysis showed that a significant percentage (44%, n =994) of clients were from the two lowest deciles of the Index of Multiple Deprivation; half ( n =1,145, 50%) of completed screens were for clients designated as 'non-responders' to screening invitations; 101 (4%) clients were referred for colposcopy; and 18 (1%) clients were identified as having high-grade dyskaryosis. Patient experience feedback suggests that the opportunistic nature of the service was a significant incentive for clients to attend for screening. The project is ongoing and the service aims to expand to cover the whole of NHS England North West.","PeriodicalId":19327,"journal":{"name":"Nursing standard (Royal College of Nursing (Great Britain) : 1987)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149271356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indeed, in the UK, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) allows up to 600 hours of simulated practice learning to count towards nursing students' and nursing associate students' total practice learning hours. However, students can sometimes feel anxious about participating in simulation activities, which can have an adverse effect on their learning experience. • Preparation before participating in a simulation activity can help to mitigate feelings of anxiety and enable students to better engage with the activity. • Simulation facilitators should seek to create a psychologically safe environment for students, in which they feel able to express their ideas and concerns openly, ask questions, make mistakes and challenge others without fear. • The simulation pre-brief is a vital aspect of simulation-based education, providing an opportunity for students to clarify what will be expected of them during the activity. • Debriefing is also a critical component of simulation learning and can support students' psychological safety by providing a structured way of reflecting on their experiences, sharing insights and receiving constructive feedback on their performance.Reflective activity: How to articles can help to update your practice and ensure it remains evidence-based.

Mistakes in IV medicine dose and infusion rate calculations are a significant factor in medication errors, so it is essential that nurses, and other healthcare professionals who undertake this task, can make these calculations accurately. Nurses undertaking IV drug calculations must have the knowledge and skills required to do so safely and accurately and must work within their level of competence. • IV administration of medicines (which includes fluids and blood products) has several advantages over the oral route including faster onset of action, as therapeutic levels are more rapidly attained, and avoidance of issues that affect absorption via the gastrointestinal tract. • There is an increased risk of adverse effects if errors in IV dosage calculation or infusion rate are made because of the rapid onset of action of IV medicines with no way of reversing this. • To undertake accurate drug dosage and infusion rate calculations, nurses need to be confident in using basic mathematical principles and be familiar with the different types of equipment used to administer IV medicines.

It also underpins emotional intelligence, an essential leadership skill that enables individuals to perceive, understand and manage their own emotions, and respond appropriately to the emotions of others. Self-awareness can be developed through reflection, enabling nurses to recognise how their values, emotions and behaviours affect others, particularly in complex and emotionally demanding healthcare environments. However, self-awareness and reflective practice are understood and demonstrated differently across individual and cultural contexts, meaning there is no 'one-size-fits-all' approach to its development. This article examines self-awareness in the context of nurse leadership, exploring its relationship with emotional intelligence and reflective practice, and considers some ways in which nurses and nursing students can further develop self-awareness. The author also discusses how cultural humility is one way in which self-awareness can be translated into nursing practice.","PeriodicalId":19327,"journal":{"name":"Nursing standard (Royal College of Nursing (Great Britain) : 1987)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149012714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
