Paediatric patients in Australia experience lengthy wait times for Primary and Allied Healthcare Service (PAHCS) appointments. This results in a lack of satisfaction and adverse health outcomes. However, very few studies have explored wait times for appointments with PAHCSs in Australia. This study explored the length of wait time and associated barriers to timely access to paediatric PAHCSs in Australia. <i>Methods</i>. The scoping review followed PRISMA-ScR guidelines for Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. We comprehensively searched for relevant studies from five databases, including Scopus, Emcare, Medline (via Ovid), CINAHL, and Google Scholar in August 2023 without any time limitations. Studies that reported qualitative findings on the wait times and associated barriers to timely accessing to PAHCSs were selected in this scoping review. We performed a reflexive thematic analysis using NVivo software in this review. <i>Results</i>. A total of seven studies out of ninety-one retrieved records were eligible to be included in this review. Studies show that Australian children, in general, had to wait more than one year for health assessments and interventions in PAHCSs. The long waiting times were perceived as frustrating and worrying by caregivers of children. Several overarching themes related to the barriers of timely accessing to paediatric PAHCSs in Australia were identified, such as strict appointment criteria for children, disparity between demand and provision, parental unawareness, and inadequate public funding in rural PAHCSs. <i>Conclusion</i>. Australian paediatric patients are severely burdened with long wait times for appointments with PAHCSs, primarily, due to the poor government initiatives in rural PAHCSs. This study suggested that the criteria for booking an appointment in PAHCSs need to be simplified. Besides, adequate public health funding and the provision of resources are required in rural PAHCSs.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/4277668","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142100447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Legal professionals found themselves simultaneously witnessing human suffering and endeavouring to prevent re-traumatisation of their clients. Responding to distress was difficult to achieve as the operational setting in which they provided legal assistance and the prevailing hardline political messaging by the Australian government toward asylum seekers who arrived by boat was hostile and (re)traumatising.

This study aimed to explore the role of champions in implementing community-based interventions for older adults with chronic conditions to address the gap in understanding the specific functions and impact of champions in these contexts. A scoping review methodology used a six-stage process aligned with the Arksey and O’Malley framework. After searching across 8 databases, a total of 10 studies met all inclusion criteria. The included studies were predominantly from the United States (<i>n</i> = 6/10, 60%) and the United Kingdom (<i>n</i> = 2/10, 20%). Most studies employed quantitative methodologies (<i>n</i> = 6/10, 60%), describing and evaluating healthcare champion programs or investigating the quality of care for older adults. Community interventions targeted various chronic conditions (e.g., dementia) and health outcomes (e.g., medication reconciliation). Champions, ranging from 17 to 106 individuals, played diverse roles as professional healthcare providers or lay volunteers. They facilitated intervention delivery, advocated for change, participated in evaluation, and fostered collaboration within multidisciplinary teams, contributing significantly to program implementation and health information dissemination. Recognizing champions’ diverse roles, researchers and practitioners can tailor interventions to leverage their strengths and maximize their impact. Additionally, the review highlights the importance of clear definitions and operationalization of champions to ensure consistency across studies and interventions. Practitioners can use this knowledge to identify, train effectively, and support champions within their communities, ultimately enhancing the sustainability and success of interventions for older adults with chronic conditions.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/5025234","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142077903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is a growing expectation that social and healthcare professionals will actively involve, support, and collaborate with partners, family members, and others who provide informal care. However, the practical implementation of such collaborations is not yet evident. In this qualitative study, 37 individual interviews and eight focus groups were conducted to explore the preferences of informal caregivers in the Netherlands regarding their collaboration with social and healthcare professionals. In recognition of the growing consensus that professionals should tailor their approach to caregivers’ individual circumstances, we adopted an intersectional approach to examine the relationship between caregivers’ social positions and preferences as well as the impact of systemic and power dynamics on these collaborations. The findings indicate that most of caregivers’ worries concerning collaborations are rooted in the organisational context of their interactions with professionals rather than the interactions themselves. Caregivers’ social positions do not necessarily lead to varying opinions regarding collaboration with professionals; however, caregivers do expect professionals to be aware of their social positions, as these positions shape the context within which informal care is provided and determine how easily caregivers can integrate care responsibilities into their lives. To enhance collaboration between caregivers and professionals in the short term, care organisations and social and healthcare educational programmes should encourage a professional mindset that recognises caregivers as equal partners in care. It is essential for professionals to acknowledge the caregiver’s role and devise strategies for arranging care together that build on the existing relationship between the caregiver and care recipient.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/4023865","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142041546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To explore how Black African international students adjust to their new university environment and gain insight into how they feel supported to engage in physical activity (PA). <i>Background</i>. People from ethnic minority backgrounds have poor physical activity levels compared with white populations in the UK. The Black population is known to have the lowest PA levels among the ethnic minority groups in the UK. This trend is suggested to be the case among university students, but no research has examined this. Ethnic minority students, including international students, encounter adaptation difficulties such as cultural barriers and social isolation which affect their university experiences and health behaviours such as physical activity. <i>Methodology</i>. This was a qualitative method, with in-depth semistructured interviews conducted with five African students (two males and three females) aged between 21 and 40 years from a university in the West Midlands. The transcribed interviews were analysed using Braun and Clarke’s thematic analysis. <i>Results/Findings</i>. Culture and lifestyle of physical activity; knowledge, experience, and self-motivation; the effect of various social groups, activities, and services at the university; and weather variations and physical settings were the identified themes. The key finding of the study is that respondents engaged in PA to a greater extent at the British university than they did in their home countries. This was due to a combination of factors, including low-cost gym memberships and events and a general lack of racial or gender-based discrimination. <i>Conclusions/Recommendations</i>. Participants expressed satisfaction with the cultural and social support systems at their university, such as sports clubs and societies, and mental health support services that encouraged them to learn about and engage more in physical activity. Although some barriers, such as weather variations, were mentioned, various indoor options coupled with cheaper gymnasiums motivated students to remain or become active. Understanding the experiences of minority student groups in physical activity could help in reviewing current provisions and extending them to a wider population.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/2551260","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141994121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Further threats may arise from adult children if such changes or events are perceived as permitting or signalling a need to assume greater control over their parent’s life. In the context of reablement—a time-limited intervention seeking to help older people regain their confidence and ability to live as independently as possible—this is observed in cases where adult children resist, or seek to sabotage, reablement. This runs counter to the notion of family being a valuable resource and partner to reablement services in achieving the desired outcomes. Notions of autonomy and legitimate authority, which often co-occur in care relationships, provide a useful lens to understand this phenomenon. The aims of this study were to explore reablement staff’s accounts of the ways adult children seek to assume control over their parents’ reablement, and how they manage such situations.

Staff believed that, when aware this was happening, older people ceded control to their child(ren) because preserving the relationship with their child(ren) was a greater priority than maximising their independence. Staff’s descriptions of the different strategies they used to protect family relationships whilst supporting the older person’s autonomy shed light on the skills reablement staff require.

People living with both intellectual disability and dysphagia may require a range of supports in order to have the opportunity to participate in different eating and drinking environments of their choice. Understanding the nature of those supports is important to ensure that people with intellectual disability living with dysphagia can continue to create a good life for themselves at home and in their community. This study aimed to identify the nature of supports provided to people with intellectual disability and dysphagia when eating and drinking in different environments, as described in the published literature. A scoping review, underpinned by an a priori protocol, was conducted by a team of four reviewers. Four databases were searched. Sixteen papers were included for full-text review. The review identified that studies most frequently reported support in the form of safety strategies to prevent the ill-health consequences of dysphagia and training carers in those safety strategies by speech-language pathologists.
