This review was conducted to appraise the current literature around the role of self-compassion in the transition to motherhood and women's experiences of this, as well as the effectiveness of self-compassion on women's psychological wellbeing in this transition. Databases were searched against an inclusion criterion and 11 studies were selected for review. Review findings give insights into how self-compassion practices can aid the transition to motherhood by mitigating psychological challenges and promoting maternal wellbeing and mother–infant bonding. Self-compassion training opportunities should be provided to health visitors and other health professionals working with women from pregnancy, to competently deliver and facilitate such interventions.Item A scoping review exploring people’s perceptions of healthcare uniforms(Mark Allen Group, 2024-08-13) Cooper, Mark; Kindness, Karen; McCulloch, Margot; McParland, ChrisBackground: Healthcare staff uniforms are a subject of debate in the UK, and this is particularly true in the case of less understood roles such as advanced nurse practitioners. Aim: This review explores what is known about people’s perceptions of health professionals’ uniforms. Method: A mixed methods scoping review following the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology. Five databases (CINAHL, ASSIA, PsycINFO, and EMBASE) and several search engines were searched. Eligible reports were peer-reviewed English-language studies using any methodology to explore people’s perceptions of different uniforms for health professionals. Findings: Forty-six studies (mainly from North America) were included, presenting a variety of perspectives on the uniforms worn by doctors, nurses and other health professionals. Conclusion: Culture and context likely influence how uniforms are understood. Practitioners should consider how this may affect communication with both patients and colleagues. What health professionals wear matters, particularly in relation to less well understood roles.Item Mentoring programs for PhD nursing students [Editorial](Elsevier, 2024-03-12) Tessmer, Lindsay; Gilmour, Fiona; Rennie, Karen; Pohlmann, Megan; Mehrtens, Anna; Verry, Teri Winning; Oerther, SarahItem Building an Inclusive Research Culture(Springer, 2020-12-23) Baldie, Debbie; Dickson, Caroline; Sixsmith, Judith; Sixsmith, Andrew; Sixsmith, Judith; Mihailidis, Alex; Fang, Mei LanItem Unpacking and Developing Facilitation(Wiley-Blackwell, 2021-05) Middleton, Rebekkah; Kelly, Margaret; Dickson, Caroline; Wilson, Valerie; van Lieshout, Famke; Hirter, Kathrin; Boomer, Christine; Manley, Kim; Wilson, Valerie J.; Oye, Christine
