“…However, some members of the smaller fields of practice such as children's nurses have concerns that a 2-year core education programme might become too generic and focused on physical adult health care (Glasper, 2016). Generic nurse preparation does not equate to the registered general nurse programme of yesteryear, which, although it gave taster placements in areas such as paediatrics and mental health, was on the whole orientated towards the care of adults.…”

I n the last issue of the BJN, the link between patient safety and nurse staffing levels was highlighted (Glasper, 2016). Healthcare staffing is currently under the spotlight, with the media reporting that the NHS has 70 000 fewer staff than the Government previously thought. According to The Guardian, this represents, among others, 15 000 fewer nurses and 3000 fewer doctors (Campbell, 2016). However, the Government has recognised the looming crisis of nurse staffing in the NHS .In October 2015 it commissioned the Migration Advisory Committee (MAC), a non-departmental public organisation linked to the Home Office whose role it is to advise the Government on migration issues and review whether there is a shortage of nurses or specific nursing roles that could filled by non-European Economic Area (EEA) migration. Nurses were subsequently placed on the Shortage Occupation List (SOL) (Gov. uk, 2015) on a temporary basis, pending MAC's review of the evidence (SOL is a list of positions where there are not enough resident workers to fill the available jobs in that particular sector). In March 2016, MAC published its report, entitled Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) partial review: shortage occupation list and nursing.

Objectives In 2016, a Pediatric Nursing Continuing Professional Development (PNCPD) program was created and implemented in Kigali, Rwanda, through the Training, Support, and Access Model (TSAM) for Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health (MNCH). This partnership project between Canada and Rwanda provided pediatric nursing education to forty-one Rwandan nurses and nurse educators in 2018 and 2019. The objective of this research study was to explore the experiences of nurses and nurse educators applying pediatric knowledge and skills to academic and clinical settings after participating in the PNCPD program. Methods This study was situated within an interpretive descriptive perspective to explore the ways in which knowledge gained during the PNCPD program in Rwanda was applied by nurses and nurse educators in their nursing practice, both academically and clinically. Data was collected through individual interviews. Inductive content analysis was used for data analysis. Results The analysis of the interviews resulted in the emergence of five themes: Transformations in Pediatric Nursing Practice, Knowledge Sharing, Relationship-Based Nursing, Barriers and Facilitators to Knowledge Implementation, and Scaling-up PNCPD within the Health System. Conclusions The results of this study have the potential to inform positive changes to child health care in Rwanda, including scaling up pediatric nursing education to other areas of the healthcare system.
