This paper presents a policy perspective on the topical issue of migration and registration of internationally qualified health practitioners (IQHPs), with a focus on international medical graduates and internationally qualified nurses and midwives. Current views, regulatory governance and recommendations affecting skilled migration and registration of IQHPs were examined, specifically whether current and proposed practices are transparent, consistent, equitable, robust, cost-effective and assist in ensuring IQHPs demonstrate the necessary qualifications and experience for protection of the Australian public. The complexity of the current regulatory and administrative application and approval processes for IQHPs seeking to live and work in the Australian healthcare setting provides significant opportunities for future research, particularly those areas of reform under consideration by the Health Ministers’ Advisory Council.

Summary With increasing student mobility to and from western host-universities, newly qualified social workers are more likely to enter the field in an unfamiliar context. To examine whether current knowledge appropriately informs education and support for a diversifying cohort of newly qualified social workers in the Australian context, a scoping review was conducted on 53 articles investigating the transition to social work practice. Research conducted over a 45-year period from a broad range of international contexts was included in the review. Findings Findings suggest that current understandings do not reflect the needs or experiences of the present cohort of newly qualified social workers as they transition to social work practice. Rather, study samples, mostly derived from western contexts, are notably homogenous, with most participants described by researchers, as ‘white’. Additionally, there is an assumption that students transition to practice within the same context as their education. Current knowledge therefore does not capture the various ways internationally mobile, newly graduated social workers may transition to practice, or how it is experienced. Applications Findings suggest that further examination is urgently needed on the pathways navigated to practice by diverse and mobile early career social workers. Further consideration of the influences of diversity and mobility on experience is needed, using more inclusive research methods, to capture the variability and complexity of the transition to practice as the profession diversifies and mobilises.

Abstract Introduction Scottish Government aims to increase numbers of pharmacist independent prescribers (IP) in community to improve healthcare access. This includes utilising qualified IPs as Designated Prescribing Practitioners (DPP) to increase capacity to supervise pharmacists on IP courses. Aim To investigate views and perceptions of practice-based stakeholders and identify potential influences on DPP implementation for Scottish community pharmacists (CP) Methods A theory-based cross-sectional online survey of stakeholders involved in DPP role implementation (e.g. Directors of Pharmacy, Prescribing Leads, IP qualified CPs) was employed. Participation invites were shared with Scottish health boards and CP organisations via email and social media. Snowball sampling was used so no key individual was omitted. The questionnaire was informed by Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) DPP Framework (1) and Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (2). It examined views and awareness of DPP role, implementation drivers, and obstacles. The tool was reviewed for credibility and dependability then piloted. Data were analysed descriptively. Results Ninety-nine responses were received (NB: Since this was a national survey of multiple stakeholders without a defined sample list, response rate was indeterminate). Two-fifths (n=39, 40.2%) were community pharmacists with majority qualified for more than 10 years (n=76, 76.8%). Only 18 had previous involvement with IP courses. The table shows awareness and views of the role based on RPS framework. Respondents had positive attitudes to DPP implementation with the majority supporting it (72, 73.5%) and believing that its advantages outweigh any disadvantages (74, 75.5%). Facilitators of successful implementation were having clearly defined leadership roles (89, 90.9%), piloting (85, 87.6%), and incentives (65, 88.8%). Drivers for uptake of role included improving patient care (94, 96%) and the profession (91, 92.8%), self-development (91, 92.8%), developing individual pharmacists (89, 90.8%), payment (77, 79.4%), and being recognised by peers/employers (73, 75.2%). Conclusion There was positivity regarding DPP role, its acceptability in, and advantages for CP. Resource-related concerns were expressed that need further consideration to ensure effective implementation. This is the first study internationally to explore views on DPP role. Given the Scottish focus, findings may lack generalisability. Future research should focus on theory-based evaluation of structures and processes of implementation.

Quality service provision and patient safety and satisfaction in encounters with health-care professionals relies on effective communication between the practitioner and patient. This study aimed to identify effective practices for improving communication between clinical staff in general practice and patients with limited English proficiency, and to promote their implementation in general practice. Effective interventions and strategies were identified from a review of international research. Experiences with their use in practice were explored via focus group discussions with general practitioners and practice nurses. The results suggest that, wherever possible, communication in the patient’s primary language is preferable; use of a qualified medical interpreter should be promoted, and practices should have a standardised and documented procedure for accessing interpreter services. General practice staff must increase their awareness about services that are available to facilitate communication with patients with limited English proficiency, and also develop attitudes, both individual and organisational, that will maximise the effectiveness of these strategies. These findings were used to develop brief, evidence-based practice guidelines that were disseminated to focus group participants for evaluation of utility and general feedback. This evidence-based guidance is now available to assist clinical and administrative general practice staff across regional and metropolitan South Australia.

Background Low- and middle-income countries face difficulties in providing adequate health care. One of the reasons is a shortage of qualified health workers. Diagnostic decision support systems are designed to aid clinicians in their work and have the potential to mitigate pressure on health care systems. Objective The Artificial Intelligence–Based Assessment of Health Symptoms in Tanzania (AFYA) study will evaluate the potential of an English-language artificial intelligence–based prototype diagnostic decision support system for mid-level health care practitioners in a low- or middle-income setting. Methods This is an observational, prospective clinical study conducted in a busy Tanzanian district hospital. In addition to usual care visits, study participants will consult a mid-level health care practitioner, who will use a prototype diagnostic decision support system, and a study physician. The accuracy and comprehensiveness of the differential diagnosis provided by the diagnostic decision support system will be evaluated against a gold-standard differential diagnosis provided by an expert panel. Results Patient recruitment started in October 2021. Participants were recruited directly in the waiting room of the outpatient clinic at the hospital. Data collection will conclude in May 2022. Data analysis is planned to be finished by the end of June 2022. The results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal. Conclusions Most diagnostic decision support systems have been developed and evaluated in high-income countries, but there is great potential for these systems to improve the delivery of health care in low- and middle-income countries. The findings of this real-patient study will provide insights based on the performance and usability of a prototype diagnostic decision support system in low- or middle-income countries.

ObjectiveTo understand general practice (GP) residents’ attitudes about their residency training in China.DesignMixed methods survey administered cross-sectionally.SettingTwo GP training programmes similar in most regards according to current GP training policy of 5 years’ undergraduate degree in medicine and 3 years of postgraduate GP residency training—but differing as the Beijing programme has adopted educational innovations beyond the nationally prescribed standard curriculum used by the second Shenzhen programme.Participants105 (85%) of eligible GP trainees, 35 (90%) in the innovative Beijing programme and 70 (83%) in the standard training Shenzhen programme.ResultsOverall, residents felt discrimination because of specialty choice, and that they lacked competency as a general practitioner. Many residents commented faculty had negative teaching attitudes. Beijing residents were more satisfied than Shenzhen residents with their training (p=0.001), and felt teaching faculty had sufficient knowledge (p<0.001), and appropriate attitudes towards teaching (p=0.004). Beijing residents more strongly agreed on five items about good future job prospects (all p<0.05).ConclusionThese Chinese GP residents identify areas for improvement in their training as well as strengths. Higher satisfaction with faculty teaching and job optimism in Beijing where GP residents receive training from specifically qualified faculty, and can earn special certification, suggest that the educational innovations enhance training and promote positivity about job prospects. These findings imply that GP residents in China face many training challenges that are similar to other international reports, while also implicating benefits of using an innovative curricular approach.

ABSTRACT Healthcare in India features a universal healthcare care system run by the constituent states and territories. Law is an obligation on the part of society imposed by the competent authority, and noncompliance may lead to punishment in the form of monetary fine or imprisonment or both. The earliest known code of laws called the code of Hammurabi governed the various aspects of health practices including the fees payable to physician for satisfactory services. The first ever code of medical ethics called the Hippocratic oath was laid down 2500 years ago, in the 5th century BC, by Hippocrates'the Greek physician. The modern version of Hippocratic Oath (called the declaration of Geneva), devised by the WHO after the second world war and is accepted by international medical fraternity. The process of establishment of healthcare system during the colonial rule also necessitated creation of legislative framework for practitioners of medicine. As the number of doctors qualified in Indian medical colleges increased, creation of laws for them became necessary. The medical council of India, a national level statutory body for the doctors of modern medicine, was constituted after the enactment of Indian Medical Council Act 1933. The first legal recognition and registration for the Indian systems of medicine came when the Bombay Medical Practitioner’ Act was passed in 1938. Laws governing the commissioning of hospital are the laws to ensure that the hospital facilities are created after due process of registration, the facilities created are safe for the public using them, have at least the minimum essential infrastructure for the type and volume of workload anticipated and are subject to periodic inspections to ensure compliance. There are other laws pertaining to governing to the qualification/practice and conduct of professionals, sale, storage of drugs and safe medication, management of patients, environmental safety, employment and management of manpower, medicolegal aspects and laws pertaining to safety of patients, public and staff within the hospital premises. There are laws governing professional training and research, business aspects, licences/certifications required for hospitals, etc. A hospital administrator should be aware about all these laws, regulations, policies, procedures, reports and returns and keep abreast with the latest amendments to be on the safe side of law and provide quality care to the patients.

The first private practice conducted, owned by and advertised as an authorised nurse practitioner practice in Australia was established in February 2004. A mental health nurse practitioner established the practice in a medical centre to provide counselling and mental health services for individuals, couples and families. This paper discusses the first 18 months of operation and considers the experience in the context of the small amount of published data, internationally, related to nurse owned and run private practices in general, and nurse practitioner practices. The practical steps of setting up, reimbursement and meeting challenges, in particular, are discussed. Diary entries and copies of emails were used as data through which the experience was tracked. The conclusion was reached that private practice as a nurse practitioner is possible. Scope of practice and financial remuneration are limited by the current third party reimbursement arrangements under Medicare and the lack of provision of PBS provider numbers to nurse practitioners.

Between 2013 and 2016, 8.1% of U.S. adults 20 years and older suffered from depression, but only 29% of them sought help. This project addressed the low depression screening rate in a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) that supported integrated care. The purpose of the project was to evaluate the integration of behavioral health into primary care in an FQHC through the rate of depression screenings. Two theoretical frameworks, the find-organize-clarify-understand-select/plan-do-study-act model and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's framework for program evaluation in public health were combined into a list of questions and data validity tests that were used to conduct the evaluation. This quality improvement (QI) project evaluated an existing QI initiative. Findings revealed that 75% of the patients seen, and not the initially reported 53%, received depression screenings, which indicated an improved outcome. Other findings were inadequate use of theoretical frameworks, poor data quality, and suboptimal effectiveness of QI team processes. The strategies and tools recommended in this project could be used by organizational leaders and QI teams to evaluate and improve QI initiatives. The project's contribution to awareness about depression through integrated care could increase patients' access to care, quality of life, and life expectancy, and positively impact social change.

Internationally qualified health practitioners (IQHP) seeking to live and work in Australia are required to obtain the appropriate skilled migration visa through an assessment by the Department of Home Affairs and the approved assessing authority and registration by the relevant health practitioner board. Regulators create policy frameworks, standards and assessment models to meet the requirements of the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law (as in force in each state and territory) and the legislation governing Australia’s General Skilled Migration program.
This research investigated the current policies and processes governing skilled migration and registration for internationally qualified nurses, midwives and doctors in Australia. The study was informed by rich qualitative data extracted from 28 in-depth semi-structured participant interviews. Shared experiences were mapped and examined for four key participant groups: assessors operationalising the current policies and processes governing skilled migration and registration; educators offering preparatory and training programs to IQHP; workforce agencies engaging with and recruiting IQHP; and internationally qualified doctors, nurses and midwives from across the globe.
Key themes and points of intersection between the participants’ experiences and the regulatory frameworks were identified using theory and data-driven coding and thematic analysis via NVivo 12 plus software. The findings were presented in three papers. Paper one, a policy perspective, examined current views, regulatory reviews and overall governance of skilled migration and registration of IQHP in Australia. Paper two, a case study, presented key themes and points of intersection identified between regulatory frameworks and shared experiences of 28 research participants separated into four discrete groups. The final paper presented the lived experiences of the second participant group, 15 IQHP, who described their complex, culturally challenging and costly journeys seeking their shared dream of living and working in Australia.
The research provides information and recommendations to assist regulators in ensuring that the standards, policy frameworks and organisational processes used to assess the suitability of IQHP for skilled migration and entry onto the Australian health practitioners register and ultimately into the health workforce are fair, transparent, consistent, equitable and robust, and assist in ensuring IQHP demonstrate the necessary qualifications and experience for protection of the Australian public. It is clear from the research that further exploration and more innovative and evidence-based solutions are required to support and reform the standards, guidelines and policy which are used to regulate and assess IQHP.Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, Adelaide Nursing School, 2020

Music is acknowledged as an arts medium with a universal and timeless potential to influence our behavior and emotions. As international research about the effects of music on well-being expands it is timely to consolidate and report the gains in the profession of music therapy through this firstOxford Handbook of Music Therapy. With a foreword by Professor Colwyn Trevarthen (Emeritus, University of Edinburgh) this handbook provides an overview of some populations who are served in music therapy, with information about the contexts in which practitioners work. These include mental health services, hospitals, education programmes, and rehabilitation services. The people who come to music therapy either through self-referrals or by referral from a practitioner or service are described in detail by practitioner researchers most of whom are qualified at doctoral level. A range of chapters from internationally recognized experts has resulted in a substantial multidisciplinary, and pluralistic account of recent advances and applications in music therapy. The handbook presents an overview of many of the models and approaches that have developed in the field since its inception. Many of these chapters were written by the founders of the methods. Multiple perspectives to practice are honored in this text, with music therapy predominantly described as a relational therapeutic practice throughout.

Type 2 diabetes is predicted to affect between 10% and 25% of the world population in the next 20 years. Depression is a common comorbid condition in those affected with type 2 diabetes, and the combination of these conditions is associated with a poorer prognosis, including earlier mortality. Genetic and epigenetic predisposition and overlap of risk factors related to our modern lifestyle seem to drive the shared biology of diabetes and depression. This book aims to provide an understanding of the sequelae of events leading to the frequent comorbidity of diabetes and depression. This book project has been supported by the transCampus of Kings College London and Technical University of Dresden. Chapter by chapter, internationally recognized clinicians and scientists have summarized the state of the art and outstanding controversies of the epidemiology, mechanisms, and treatment of the depression–type 2 diabetes comorbidity. This book is relevant for all health professionals including the general practitioner and specialist clinicians in internal medicine, endocrinology, diabetes and metabolic diseases, neurology, psychiatry, and psychology as well as students interested in this topic.

This chapter includes taking a menstrual history, used to predict ovulation and the length of the menstrual cycle, and also as an opportunity to provide health care advice and education for women who are planning a pregnancy. Preconception nutrition is briefly covered with particular emphasis on vulnerable groups such as those with closely spaced pregnancies, adolescent mothers, vegans and vegetarians, those on low incomes, those with pre-existing diseases such as diabetes, those with eating disorders, and those from within ethnic minority groups. If needed, the practitioner can then refer women to professionally qualified nutritionists or dietitians. Lifestyle advice and medical considerations are provided here as healthy adjustments can be suggested to clients before conception to optimize maternal and early fetal health. A non-comprehensive list of some of the more common medical conditions is also provided, allowing for advice on screening or potential adjustments to medications to be organized prior to conception.

Forensic face matching evidence has been presented in UK courts for over 30 years to provide crucial identification evidence in criminal investigations. To be admissible as evidence in UK courts, face matching must be conducted by a suitably qualified expert using scientifically validated procedures. Contrary to this notion, however, the field has been largely self-regulated, with little empirical investigation into the validity of face matching procedures and extensive criticism of forensic face matching in the scientific literature. Practitioner working groups are now addressing these criticisms and standardizing working practices, but further effort is required to ensure that the procedures used for forensic face matching are reliable and the limitations known. This chapter provides a critical analysis of the forensic face matching procedures used in the UK and internationally by forensic face examiners, alongside studies and case examples that have challenged and tested the reliability and accuracy of these procedures.
