“…The ways of continuing academic education are flexible and diverse. Although self-study exams, college entrance examinations, correspondence courses, and online education are all types of national higher education exams, the advantages of self-study exams compared with other types of exams are obvious [ 13 , 14 ]. Its advantages include quick effect, low cost, and little contradiction between engineering and learning.…”

Infection department is unique in working hours, environment, content, methods, and skills requirements, and continuing education plays an important role in stabilizing and improving the professional level of nurses in the infection department. Understanding the needs of nurses in the infection department for continuing education and the possible influencing factors of participating in continuing education and providing a management basis for managers in a targeted way can make the role of continuing education fully play. In this study, according to the characteristics of the Department of Infection, a questionnaire was designed to investigate the continuing education needs of nursing staff in the Department of Infection and analyze the influencing factors. The results show that the nursing staff in the infection department had a greater demand for continuing education. Age, professional title, working life, hospital level, and marital status were the risk factors that affected their demand for continuing education.

Background: Health care is delivered to patients in the community, frequently in their own homes. New graduates need to be prepared for this unique nursing role to care for patients in the home health setting. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess student satisfaction with an innovative pedagogy to teach home health nursing using an immersion experience. The immersion experience delivered the home health nursing activity using 360-degree footage and zoom in pictures presented via a web platform. Methods: This study used a descriptive cross-sectional design with convenience sampling of 81 nursing students enrolled in the third semester of an associate degree program. Data were collected through an online survey eliciting anonymous feedback. Results: Participant feedback revealed this new pedagogy engaged nursing students and received overwhelmingly positive responses. A review of student feedback through written comments provided further support that this immersion experience exceeded expectations. Conclusion: The 360-degree immersion home care experience provided problem-based learning that positively impacted student self-reported satisfaction and perceived learning.

“…This practice ignores the organizational career management of community nurses by not providing them with relevant information about their careers and ignoring the opportunity for fair promotion. In addition, the shortage of human resources and heavy daily work [ 2 , 46 , 53 ] forces community nurses to remain at the same career level for a long time. It is also not conducive to the continuous improvement of the post competency of community nurses, which can explain our results.…”

Nurses, as the core force in the field of primary health care, need to have sufficient ability to cope with increasingly complex and onerous nursing work to meet people's health needs [ 3 , 4 ].…”

Background With the advent of an ageing society and an increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases, the role of primary health care has become increasingly important and reliant on multidisciplinary collaboration. As members of this interprofessional cooperative team, community nurses play a dominant role. Thus, the post competencies of community nurses study deserve our attention. In addition, organizational career management can affect nurses in some ways. This study aims to examine the current situation and relationship among interprofessional team collaboration, organizational career management and post-competency of community nurses. Methods A survey was conducted among 530 nurses in 28 community medical institutions from November 2021 to April 2022 in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China. Descriptive analysis was used for analysis, and a structural equation model was used to hypothesize and verify the model. A total of 88.2% of respondents met the inclusion criteria and did not meet the exclusion criteria. The main reason nurses gave for not participating was that they were too busy. Results Among the competencies on the questionnaire, ensuring quality and helping roles scored the lowest. The teaching-coaching and diagnostic functions played a mediating role. Nurses with greater seniority and those who were transferred to administrative departments had lower scores, and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). In the structural equation model, CFI = 0.992 and RMSEA = 0.049, which shows that the model fit well, suggesting that organizational career management had no statistically significant effect on post competency (β = -0.006, p = 0.932) but that interprofessional team collaboration had a statistically significant effect on post competency (β = 1.146, p < 0.001) and organizational career management had a statistically significant effect on interprofessional team collaboration (β = 0.684, p < 0.001). Conclusions Attention should be given to the improvement of community nurses' post competency in ensuring quality and performing helping, teaching-coaching, and diagnostic roles. Moreover, researchers should focus on the decline in community nurses' abilities, particularly for those with greater seniority or in administrative roles. The structural equation model shows that interprofessional team collaboration is a complete intermediary between organizational career management and post competency.
