“…Twenty‐seven articles (53%) focused on education strategies: student placements and internships ( n = 16), decentralised education ( n = 7), and creating a rural pipeline ( n = 4) (, Table 4.2) 14-40 . Studies examining different modes of undergraduate program delivery were conducted in most countries.…”

Chapter 1: Retail initiatives to improve the healthiness of food environments in rural, regional and remote communities Objective: To synthesise the evidence for effectiveness of initiatives aimed at improving food retail environments and consumer dietary behaviour in rural, regional and remote populations in Australia and comparable countries, and to discuss the implications for future food environment initiatives for rural, regional and remote areas of Australia. Study design: Rapid review of articles published between January 2000 and May 2020. Data sources: We searched MEDLINE (EBSCOhost), Health and Society Database (Informit) and Rural and Remote Health Database (Informit), and included studies undertaken in rural food environment settings in Australia and other countries. Data synthesis: Twenty‐one articles met the inclusion criteria, including five conducted in Australia. Four of the Australian studies were conducted in very remote populations and in grocery stores, and one was conducted in regional Australia. All of the overseas studies were conducted in rural North America. All of them revealed a positive influence on food environment or consumer behaviour, and all were conducted in disadvantaged, rural communities. Positive outcomes were consistently revealed by studies of initiatives that focused on promotion and awareness of healthy foods and included co‐design to generate community ownership and branding. Conclusion: Initiatives aimed at improving rural food retail environments were effective and, when implemented in different rural settings, may encourage improvements in population diets. The paucity of studies over the past 20 years in Australia shows a need for more research into effective food retail environment initiatives, modelled on examples from overseas, with studies needed across all levels of remoteness in Australia. Several retail initiatives that were undertaken in rural North America could be replicated in rural Australia and could underpin future research. Chapter 2: Which interventions best support the health and wellbeing needs of rural populations experiencing natural disasters? Objective: To explore and evaluate health and social care interventions delivered to rural and remote communities experiencing natural disasters in Australia and other high income countries. Study design: We used systematic rapid review methods. First we identified a test set of citations and generated a frequency table of Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) to index articles. Then we used combinations of MeSH terms and keywords to search the MEDLINE (Ovid) database, and screened the titles and abstracts of the retrieved references. Data sources: We identified 1438 articles via database searches, and a further 62 articles via hand searching of key journals and reference lists. We also found four relevant grey literature resources. After removing duplicates and undertaking two stages of screening, we included 28 studies in a synthesis of qualitative evidence. Data synthesis: Four of us read and assesse...

Original articles from the previous ten years in in Portuguese, Spanish and English that met the inclusion criteria were eligible. Qualitative analysis was performed with the construction of subsets and topics. Results: Inclusion of 13 articles addressing: nursing undergraduate course, distance learning undergraduate courses; curricular internships in rural health services and simulated activity with cases of rural families. Post-graduation: postgraduate internship in rural health unit, advanced nursing practice (ANP) course with emphasis on the rural setting, and the need for continuing education activity in rural nursing. Conclusion:The analysis of studies demonstrated that strategies of qualifi cation of rural health professionals can be applied in different ways, with use of several methodologies and associated technologies according to professionals' needs and availability. A range of possibilities can be discussed and developed by nursing for the qualifi cation and consolidation of rural nursing practice in Brazil.

“…Another intervention which addresses the identified concern of accessibility in relation to educational and CPD opportunities is that of providing decentralised training. This has been established in northern Norway for several years, as a means to address the educational access difficulties for its rural nurses (Skaalvik et al, 2014). By providing an offcampus curriculum, nurses are able to learn from their home rural environment, via engagement in videoconferencing and on-line educational modules, whilst having supervised clinical placements within their home rural locality.…”
