“…Many nurses indicated the importance of virtual technology in senior care in this pandemic. ‘ We created a new service, so the frailty home treatment service, where we would be looking after almost like a virtual ward of poorly people in the community … ’ (Morley et al, 2022). Synthesized Finding 2: Caregivers are concerned about older people's mental and physical health. A close relationship exists between Synthesized Finding 1 and Synthesized Finding 2.…”

“… Synthesized Finding 6: Affirmation of self‐worth. This synthesized finding was underpinned by 15 extracted findings and subdivided into 2 categories: ‘professional pride and sense of responsibilities’ and ‘trust in colleagues, managers and patients’. Seven studies have reported that caregivers express professional pride and a sense of duty (Bilal et al, 2020; Castaldo et al, 2022; Krok‐Schoen et al, 2021; Lingum et al, 2021; Morley et al, 2022; Sarabia‐Cobo et al, 2021; Sun et al, 2020). ‘ The people we serve; and, those we feel a great sense of responsibility for … ’ (Lingum et al, 2021).…”

Aims:The goal of this study was to explore caregivers' experiences, perspectives, emotions, knowledge and needs in caring for older people during the COVID-19 pandemic. These included, but were not limited to, experiences in hospital care, home care and nursing home care. Background: Because of the high mortality rate associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, senior care is critical. During the COVID-19 pandemic, caregivers caring for older people have had unique experiences potentially affecting the quality of care provided. This topic has received substantial attention since the start of the pandemic and has been studied by numerous researchers. However, experiences may differ among countries and time periods. In addition, no qualitative systematic reviews on this topic appear to have been published. Evaluation: In this systematic review of qualitative studies, data were collected from the following electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), Science Direct and Psy-cINFO. Titles and abstracts were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, full texts were screened and the methodological quality of included studies was assessed with the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative Research by two independent reviewers. Key issue(s): A total of 141 findings were extracted and aggregated into 20 categories; 6 synthesized findings were identified. Conclusion: This review indicates caregivers' experiences and perceptions regarding caring for older people during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of a qualitative systematic review show that caregivers' emotions, cognitions and knowledge have affected the quality of caregivers' senior care services during the pandemic. Caregivers caring for older adults should practise self-awareness, understanding their knowledge and attitudes to improve the quality of senior care. Moreover, health care administrators and policymakers should make concerted efforts to cultivate a better working environment.

“…Empirical studies from England and the U.S. have analyzed the rapidly changing practice and policy environments of advanced practice nurses during the pandemic exemplifying how the nursing workforce was able to adapt under challenging conditions. The study by Morley et al (2022) showed that advanced practice clinicians, which in England cover interdisciplinary clinicians including those with nursing background, transferred their advanced practice skills into areas of clinical need during the pandemic. They took on leadership positions to respond to the pandemic yet they faced challenges about lack of knowledge about their role and tension with physicians.…”
