“…Suggestions were also incentivised. Group narratives were used in a modified Nominal Group Technique (NGT) process to generate and classify ideas that were analysed by content analysis (Pokorny, 1988;Yin, 2015). This process provides all members with an equal opportunity to participate and for their input to be considered.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic caused alterations within all aspects of human life, which enabled students to uncover fears. These negative emotions, even for training nursing students, can become contagious within and between families, family members and friends, dominating and clouding their judgment. So, how do you manage fear? This study aims to describe the experience of five graduating nursing students and their respective teacher in rebuilding and promoting positive emotions (e.g. optimism, hope, courage) through a digital tool (a Blog) throughout the imposed quarantine time. A descriptive study, experience report type, analyse the authors lived experiences during the mandatory quarantine period that emerged due to COVID-19 virus, between March and May of 2020. Symbolic interactionism is used as a philosophical base that guided data collection and analysis. Through the report of their lived experiences, we encountered that the Blog empowered teacher and students to achieve their goals and find new meanings in their lives through three spiritual paths: compassion and kindness; self-awareness and courage. All participants agreed that this kind of digital tool should be used throughout the bachelor´s in nursing, which generates a more humanized way of teaching, allowing students to see beyond University walls.

“…The NGT is a structured method for group sessions aimed at reaching consensus (Delbecq et al, 1975). The modification of this technique used in this study involved the distribution of background information prior to and between consultation panel rounds as well as the introduction of new participants between rounds (Pokorny et al, 1988). These were followed by a short survey to validate responses from the panels and to provide an opportunity for participants to evaluate and rank recommendations independent of the group.…”

Background Approximately 6,000 people under the age of 65 years reside in nursing homes each year in Australia. These young people in nursing homes are at risk of premature death and preventable morbidity from injuries. Choking and falls are the leading causes of premature deaths in this cohort with reported rates of 44% and 33%, respectively. Objectives To develop injury prevention recommendations for young people in Australian nursing homes. Methods This mixed‐methods study comprised two expert consultation panels and a follow‐up survey. Two expert and stakeholder consultation panels used a modified nominal group technique to formulate recommendations. A short survey was subsequently given to participants to validate responses from the panels and to provide an opportunity to evaluate and rank recommendations. Results Ten recommendations were formulated for consideration that focused on system‐wide reforms. Four were ranked as most important for implementation: education and training for nursing home staff; implementation of National Disability Insurance Scheme; support for coordinated care; and increasing residential housing stock that is appropriately designed. Conclusion Extensive changes are needed to prevent injury for young people in nursing homes. Implementation should reduce the risk of injury and lead to an improved quality of life for this cohort. Implications for practice This study provides an evidence base for aged care practitioners to improve practice within nursing homes to reduce fatal and non‐fatal injuries for young people in nursing homes.
