Relevant literature from 2009 to 2021 was included.Data SourcesDatabases included CINAHL, PubMed, Informit and the Australian Indigenous HealthInfoNet.Review MethodsSearch terms included ‘Indigenous Peoples’, ‘cultural safety’ and ‘human rights’ within the context of health in Australia, Aotearoa and Canada.ResultsThe database searches yielded 147 abstracts. After screening, 39 studies were included in the review, describing four overarching themes on the connection between cultural safety and the right to health.ConclusionsDespite cultural safety being linked to key elements of the right to health, such as availability, accessibility, and culturally acceptable resources and services, there is still paucity in research on cultural safety within a human rights framework. Evidence supports cultural safety to decolonise practices, embrace Indigenous knowledge and challenge racism. Linking cultural safety to key elements of the right to health compels nations that have ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights to embed cultural safety to fulfil their legal obligation to address health equity according to International Human Rights Law. This study is the first to add a human rights lens on cultural safety.ImpactThe findings underscore the need for clear and explicit linkage between cultural safety and the right to health. This will prompt greater accountability for healthcare institutions and providers and governments to create a more culturally safe healthcare system and to recognise that cultural safety is not optional but an inherent part of the right to health.No Patient or Public ContributionCultural safety, decolonisation, health equity, human rights, Indigenous, nursing, racism.","PeriodicalId":54897,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Nursing","volume":"229 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142879686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These incidents have serious psychological and physical impacts on healthcare providers' quality of life and their ability to execute their jobs. As no studies have been conducted in the Middle East to explore the experiences of second victims among nurses, this study examined the relationship between nurses' second victim experiences, turnover and absenteeism.DesignDescriptive, correlational, cross‐sectional study.MethodsA convenience sample of 117 nurses was recruited from secondary‐ and tertiary‐level hospitals across 13 regions in Saudi Arabia. The Second Victim Experience and Support Tool was used to assess second victim experiences and their impact on turnover and absenteeism.ResultsSecond victim trauma affected over half of the participants. ‘The mental weight of my experience is exhausting’ and ‘My colleagues can be indifferent to the impact these situations have had on me’ obtained the highest mean scores. Healthcare providers who stated that these situations had improved their quality of care were found to have the lowest scores. Second victim experiences had significant relationships with turnover and absenteeism. Further, healthcare providers' length of experience did not affect absenteeism, while second victim experiences significantly predicted absenteeism. Additionally, a strong relationship was observed between turnover and absenteeism. Overall, those with a second victim experience had a greater turnover intention.ConclusionsThe results underscore the physical and psychological distress that healthcare providers endure, increasing the likelihood of them leaving the profession. These problems are worsened by inadequate institutional support, emphasising the need for efforts to stabilise second victims and avoid unfavourable organisational outcomes.Reporting MethodThe study adheres to the STROBE reporting guidelines.Patient or Public ContributionNo patient or public contribution.","PeriodicalId":54897,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Nursing","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142879687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach aimed to drive change at the <jats:italic>individual level</jats:italic> (nurse practitioner), <jats:italic>dyadic level</jats:italic> (nurse–patient therapeutic relationship), and <jats:italic>systems level</jats:italic> (organisational culture, education, and policy) to strengthen nurse practitioners' capacity to deliver optimal opioid use disorder care.BackgroundThe opioid overdose epidemic is a global public health crisis, with the United States facing the most severe impact. Access to evidence‐based treatment for opioid use disorder remains a significant barrier. Primary care nurse practitioners can play a crucial role in expanding access and bridging the treatment gap. Addressing factors influencing access to, quality of, and effectiveness of treatment requires urgent and careful consideration.DesignThis position paper highlights the multilevel barriers that inhibit nurse practitioners in managing opioid use disorder, negatively impacting treatment access and opioid use disorder‐related outcomes.MethodThe Advanced Practice Provider conceptual model was adapted to guide this paper. This adapted model illustrates the interconnected layers among nurse practitioners, clinical care, education, professional development, and organisational culture and policy in caring for patients with opioid use disorder.ConclusionsEquipping primary care nurse practitioners with the necessary tools to both understand opioid addiction and empower patients experiencing it can have a profound impact. This impact benefits the provider and patient and extends to addressing the opioid crisis at multiple levels. Future research should explore nurse practitioners' experiences when working with individuals with opioid use disorder, identify barriers that hinder positive interactions with patients seeking treatment, and pragmatically test and implement multilevel interventions designed to holistically benefit providers and patient outcomes.Impact to NursingThis American‐based reflection offers valuable insights to nurse practitioners worldwide as they consider effective strategies for addressing opioid use disorder in primary care settings.","PeriodicalId":54897,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Nursing","volume":"122 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142874325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study suggests that on days when nurses' mindfulness is higher than average, they may accumulate more resources that facilitate their voice behaviour.DesignWe employed an intensive longitudinal design in the form of a daily diary. Participants were asked to complete both one‐time and daily surveys.MethodsWe collected data between March and September 2024, and 119 nurses were tracked over seven workdays. We tested the hypothesised relationships using a multilevel analysis.ResultsMindfulness was positively related to nurses' voice behaviour; this relationship was mediated by work‐related self‐efficacy (WRSE). Moreover, ego depletion and WRSE played a chain‐mediating role between mindfulness and nurses' voice behaviour.ConclusionMindfulness enhances nurses' voice behaviour as well as an individual's resource level and enables him/her to obtain more resources through voice behaviour.ImpactGiven the positive impact of mindfulness, we advocate for expanding mindfulness training for nurses to boost their resource levels and consequently encourage voice behaviour. In addition, given the mediating role of ego depletion and WRSE, we emphasise the importance of identifying and mitigating factors that contribute to nurses' ego depletion. Furthermore, we call for training on professional skills to be provided to enhance nurses' confidence in their abilities.Patient or Public ContributionThere are no patient or public contributions.
