To explore how the context of care influences the development of community-acquired pressure ulcers from the perspective of nurses working in home healthcare settings, to identify and categorise the factors perceived as contributing to the development of these ulcers using the Model for Examining Safety and Quality Concerns in Home Healthcare, and to explore how these risks are managed in practice. ⋯ Further consideration should be given to the importance of place when both developing risk management strategies for pressure ulcer prevention and learning the lessons from failure.

Multicenter Study
Current status and influencing factors of barriers to enteral feeding of critically ill patients: A multicenter study.
To investigate the barriers in administering enteral feeding to critically ill patients from the nursing perspective. Our objectives are to provide tailored interventions for addressing identified barriers and propose an optimal enteral nutrition (EN) practice in intensive care unit (ICU). ⋯ The findings of this study can be used to inform future intervention and guidelines aimed at addressing these barriers systematically and improving adherence to critical care nutrition guidelines for the provision of enteral nutrition.

The objective was to consider family presence during resuscitation (FPDR) from the perspective of the family member. ⋯ The findings are relevant for a clinical practice that promotes a more family-centred approach to allowing FPDR. Creating policy and providing FPDR education for HCPs based on evidence provide more consistency in clinical practice and help to eliminate the moral distress experienced by clinical nurses forced to make difficult decisions during a stressful event.
