Non-direct patient care roles were excluded. Sources of Evidence: A search in CINAHL, MEDLINE and ProQuest Nursing & Allied Health identified 1978 sources, of which 37 studies were included: 15 qualitative, 9 quantitative, 4 mixed methods, 6 commentaries, 1 performance improvement project, and 1 scoping review.Charting MethodsData were extracted using Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) guidelines and thematically analyzed according to Levac's framework.ResultsFour key themes emerged: (i) Interruptions hinder communication but can be reduced by electronic supports facilitating asynchronous communication, (ii) Power imbalances and high workload/communication load impede effective communication, emphasizing the need for structured communication tools and interprofessional communication training, (iii) Shared workspaces, electronic supports, and collaborative, respectful interactions enhance communication (iv) Timely updates and collaborative planning are valued, emphasizing the significance of consistent communication.ConclusionsThis review identified interventions that can improve ED nurse-provider communication, including electronic supports, shared workspaces, structured communication tools, and interprofessional communication training. Future research should evaluate these strategies' effectiveness and explore regional differences, particularly in Canada, where the literature is limited.","PeriodicalId":46661,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Nursing Research","volume":" ","pages":"267-283"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12086286/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143651379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A small number of Safer Stimulant Supply programs have been piloted in Canada, which seek to provide a pharmaceutical-grade stimulant medication replacement for the toxic unregulated stimulant supply. In this paper, we describe the results of retrospective Safer Stimulant Supply program medical chart reviews.MethodsWe extracted data from program intake and check-in forms collected on an ongoing basis by the clinical teams. In total, 28 medical charts were included in this evaluation. Data collected was reported using descriptive statistics.ResultsChart reviews showed that over the course of the program, program participants reported an overall decrease in their unregulated stimulant use. Specifically, at program intake and check-in appointments, cocaine use went from a median of 10 points/day to 0 points/day, and crystal methamphetamine use went from a median of 1.5 points/day to 0 points/day. Chart reviews also showed that program participants reported increased access to primary care and infectious disease programs and improvements in housing status.ConclusionsOur research demonstrated that program participants found Safer Stimulant Supply programs to be impactful in addressing ongoing drug use.

Work-related quality of life was measured with 23 items that assess job satisfaction, general wellbeing, work-life balance, stress level experienced at work, control, and working conditions. Professional quality of life was measured along three dimensions: compassion satisfaction (CS), burnout, and secondary traumatic stress (STS) (10 items each). Responses were linked by code and changes in quality of life were analyzed using paired Student's t-test.Results107 nurses participated at time 1 and 28 at time 2. Burnout and secondary traumatic stress scores at time 1 were lower among older nurses and those with children. Over the two-year period (2021 to 2023), significant increases were observed in burnout (p < 0.001), and secondary traumatic stress (p = 0.04), while work-related Quality-of-Life decreased significantly (p = 0.04).

Most nurses feel unprepared to engage in ACP and the current literature offers limited recommendations on how nurses can lead culturally safe ACP discussions. Internationally educated nurses (IENs) have unique personal and professional experiences to address this gap.PurposeThe purpose of this study was to understand IENs' contributions to culturally safe ACP and its implications to nursing practice and ACP policy.MethodsAn interpretive descriptive approach was undertaken. Ten IENs working in Ontario, Canada were individually interviewed using a semi-structured guide to understand their perspectives and experiences of engagement in culturally safe ACP practices.ResultsIENs utilized various approaches that were reflected in three actions: practicing cultural humility, utilizing a cautious approach, and empowering clients and families. IENs engaged in intrapersonal and interpersonal cultural humility practices to recognize the unique influence of one's culture on the ACP process. Establishing trust in the nurse-client relationship and cautiously approaching ACP conversations was recognized as important in maintaining cultural safety. IENs also empowered clients by addressing knowledge deficits, misconceptions about ACP, and informing them of their decision-making rights.ConclusionNurses require education and resources to carry out culturally safe ACP. Education should begin at the undergraduate level and include self-engagement in ACP and cultural humility training. Practicing nurses need ACP training and clear standards/guidelines. There is an opportunity for healthcare organizations and professional/governing nursing bodies to collaborate on developing culturally safe ACP guidelines.","PeriodicalId":46661,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Nursing Research","volume":" ","pages":"165-176"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12086287/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142298324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence-based treatments have demonstrated some success; however, many Veterans remain symptomatic mandating the urgent need for innovative treatment strategies.PurposeThe purpose of this study was to explore the lived experience of military Veterans with PTSD symptoms who participated in a therapeutic warm water immersion intervention aimed at reducing their symptoms.Methods and ProceduresA standardized warm 33 °C (92 °F) water immersion intervention to the chest, lasting 45 min was implemented. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the 13 participants (age 23-41) after engaging in the intervention. Using a qualitative descriptive design informed by phenomenology, thematic analysis was completed, applying criteria of rigor throughout the process.ResultsFive main themes explicated the participants' experience: the rhythm of relaxed, embracing the properties of the water, the pain floats away, acclimatize to calmness, and a place to set your mind. Participants described a sense of relaxation, calmness, pain reduction, and a means to control intrusive thoughts. All indicated they would recommend the intervention and provided feedback on how to refine it.ConclusionsAs a component of a larger study, these qualitative findings revealed the potential for therapeutic effects of a novel water immersion intervention. The findings serve to inform revisions to the intervention for future research and practice. Immersion provides a fast-acting, non-stigmatizing adjunct therapy for Veterans who continue to experience symptoms during and after standard evidence-based treatment.","PeriodicalId":46661,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Nursing Research","volume":" ","pages":"227-241"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143013793","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}

Care for this population has largely moved to outpatient and tertiary settings. Therefore, a current trend is to use non-traditional clinical settings. While summer camps offer rich learning experiences for nursing students, they are seldom used as clinical placements. Faculty at an Atlantic Canadian university sought a novel way to engage students in young families' learning by partnering with overnight summer camps, staffed by counsellors, camp administrators, and on-site nurses. Campers included those with lived experience of cancer, diabetes, physical and developmental challenges, and socioeconomic challenges. This study assesses how young families course outcomes were met by an innovative clinical experience within a Bachelor of Nursing program and describes the perceptions and experiences of those involved.MethodsStudy participants included students (n = 4), camp directors (n = 3), a camp nurse (n = 1), and the clinical educator (n = 1). Data collection involved semi-structured interviews and a focus group.

Data analysis was guided by Braun and Clarke's technique for thematic analysis.ResultsThe narrative accounts of participants were categorized using two broad themes: mental illness stigma in action and addressing stigma as a society. Participants' reflections on mental illness stigma were based on their professional experiences, conversations within their families, and their awareness of the stigma associated with mental illness within the broader social realm, as well as recent campaigns toward reducing the stigma of mental illness. They described stigma as a 'mark of shame' that translates into discriminatory behaviors and actions toward persons with mental illness, and called for structural reforms to curb this stigma.
