AimTo describe key findings of Global Nursing in empirical nursing studies.DesignA literature review using descriptive data synthesis of peer‐reviewed articles in the field of nursing education and practice.MethodsThis review of Cinahl Complete, PubMed, PsycINFO and Scopus was undertaken using the search strategy “global nursing”. Independent title/abstract and full‐text screening was undertaken, identifying original articles written in English.ResultsA total of 472 titles and 170 abstracts were read through. Seventy‐three articles were included for full‐text review. Twenty published studies of Global Nursing with multiple research methodologies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Findings were described with five categories. Global Nursing Arena, Global Nursing Working Environments, Global Nursing Workforce Management, Global Nursing Competencies and Global Nursing Networking were shown to be crucial when Global Nursing was addressed in the literature.
Background: Child cancer care is becoming increasingly successful, the treatment brought more success through intensified therapy, but this development has not been easy to achieve due to the pain and anxiety that the treatment often causes. It is not possible to eliminate the chaos the family experiences, but it can be reduced through a deepened understanding of the situation. Purpose:The aim of the study is to highlight families views on participation in childhood cancer care. Method:A qualitative design, appropriate to gain a holistic view, has been chosen. Eight families with children diagnosed with cancer, of various ages and gender and from various backgrounds, participated in five interviews each during the first year of the child´s illness. Findings:The families constitute a cornerstone in paediatric oncology care today, but the results indicate that all the various tasks and commitments for the families, sometimes entail too heavy a burden. They are in need of better support and clearer instructions to be able to cope with the situation including rules and measures concerning the child. Therefore, it is urgent to clarify who has the formal responsibility for medical consequences that might occur in connection with delegated responsibility. The study shows that there is a lack of pedagogical thought and a need to create a pedagogical model. Conclusion:There is a need for guiding principles and education for the parents, which would contribute to their increased confidence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
