<div> The COVID-19 pandemic placed unprecedented strain on professional caregivers in nursing homes. This study aimed to explore the positive outcomes these caregivers experienced amidst the crisis. We conducted 15 semi-structured interviews with nurses, medical staff, and support personnel from two nursing homes in Spain between December 2021 and July 2022. Through qualitative content analysis, we uncovered signs of post-traumatic growth, such as enhanced problem-solving and organizational skills. A strong social support network was key to fostering this growth, easing distress, and strengthening team cohesion. Caregivers expressed a deep sense of gratitude and satisfaction in their roles, finding new meaning in their work, which contributed to resilience and a positive outlook despite ongoing challenges. These findings underscore the importance of robust support systems in caregiving environments, which can not only mitigate stress but also promote personal and professional growth. Further research should focus on sustaining these positive adaptations and developing strategies that enhance resilience and well-being for caregivers, ultimately improving care outcomes for older adults in nursing homes. </div>

&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Background&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Aging is the primary risk factor for sarcopenia and mobility limitations. Exercise reduces these risks, but older adults have low levels of participation in physical activity and exercise. We investigated the preliminary effectiveness of a live, online exercise program on community-dwelling older adults’ physical activity levels.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Methods&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A mixed-method pilot randomized controlled trial was conducted according to CONSORT 2010 statement: extension for pilot and feasibility trials. Sedentary older adults (65–80 years) were randomly assigned to the online exercise intervention (ACTIVE) or a waitlist control (CON) group. Outcomes were measured pre-randomization and following the 8-week intervention for ACTIVE and CON and two months following the end of the intervention for the ACTIVE group. Outcomes included habitual physical activity levels, depression, anxiety, loneliness, life-space mobility, nutrition risk, and feasibility. All participants were invited to participate post-intervention in individual semi-structured qualitative interviews. Reporting of the qualitative research followed the checklist for the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting research.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Results&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Seventeen older adults (71% women) were allocated to ACTIVE group, while 15 were allocated to CON group (87% women). Following the intervention, participants in the ACTIVE group reported reduced symptoms of depression (ACTIVE: pre = 4.2 ± 2.5; post = 2.2 ± 1.9; CON: pre = 3.5 ± 2.1, post = 3.5 ± 2.1; p &lt;0.001) and improved life-space mobility (ACTIVE: pre = 62.4 ± 14.7; post = 71.8 ± 16.0; CON: pre = 65.1 ± 19.0, post = 63.6 ± 22.0; p = 0.003) compared to waitlist control participants. The ACTIVE group had good adherence (97%) and acceptability (98%). Twenty-two participants participated in qualitative interviews. Five themes were identified, including (1) Feasibility of the online exercise program; (2) Perceived health benefits and improvements; (3) Registered Kinesiologists and Physiotherapists contributed to perceived safety; (4) Social connectivity associated with synchronous/live delivery; and (5) Growing old gracefully and preventing disability.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Conclusions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our online exercise program was acceptable to older adults, had good adherence, reduced depression, and increased life space. Participants reported improved functional and mental health benefits. Further research is warranted to expand on these findings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Trial registration&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04627493" target="_blank"&gt;NCT04627493&lt;/a&gt;; 13/11/2020.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

<div> Cultural creative products play an important role in the revitalization of tourism-oriented rural areas and the preservation of cultural heritage. However, existing products fail to fully meet the diverse needs of consumers and lack a systematic design framework. This study proposes a user-centered framework aimed at guiding the innovation of cultural creative products in China’s rural tourism. During the exploration of user needs, grounded theory was used to identify three core user needs: emotional identification, personalization and uniqueness, and enhancement of quality of life. Using the KANO model, these needs were further categorized into basic needs, performance needs, and excitement needs, clarifying their priorities. In the stage of translating user needs into actionable design elements, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was employed to assign weights to each need, and Quality Function Deployment (QFD) theory was used to construct the House of Quality, refining 14 user needs into 9 key design elements. The findings indicate a positive correlation between multifunctional design and ergonomic design, that usability and convenience are closely related to human-machine ergonomics, and that the integration of cultural symbols with emotional design and innovative forms significantly enhances the cultural value and user experience of the products. This study provides a systematic theoretical framework and practical guidance for the innovation of rural cultural creative products, with significant implications for future research and practice. </div>

&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;The use of online teaching mode has grown rapidly in recent years, particularly under the COVID-19 pandemic. To promote the learning motivation of students and teaching effectiveness, development of attractive online teaching material such as videos is important. In the present study, we developed 15 theory-related videos and 9 case-based videos in the context of a leadership course focusing on psychological well-being and psychosocial competence. Using a qualitative research methodology via focus groups (N = 48 students) to evaluate these videos, six themes emerged from the data, including video arrangement, design of videos, content of videos, benefits to students’ pre-lesson self-learning, benefits to students’ learning of course content, and contribution to students’ class participation. The findings suggest that the videos can elicit positive perceptions of the students in a flipped classroom arrangement. Students also benefit from the videos in terms of their understanding of course content and their participation in class discussion. Besides, the study suggests that the videos promote the learning efficiency of the students. The present qualitative findings concurred with the previous quantitative findings, suggesting the value of using virtual teaching and learning to promote psychosocial competence in university students.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Innovative models of healthcare, such as telehealth, are required to meet the growing demand for orthotic/prosthetic (O&amp;P) services. While O&amp;P users report being very satisfied with telehealth, many clinical facilities have reverted to in-person modes of care as COVID-19 restrictions have eased. As such, there is a disconnect between benefits of telehealth to O&amp;P users, and the clinical services being delivered in-person. The aim of this study was to explore the orthotist/prosthetist’s perspective of the barriers and facilitators influencing use of telehealth in the United States of America (USA). O&amp;P practitioners were recruited from across the USA. In-depth, semi-structured interviews were used to document practitioner demographics, the services being provided using telehealth, and practitioners’ perspective of the barriers and facilitators influencing use of telehealth. Data describing participant demographics and services were summarised. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analysed using thematic analysis. 30 practitioners from across the USA participated. Telehealth was used to deliver a range of O&amp;P services including: initial evaluations, routine follow-ups, and delivery of a device in rare circumstances. Barriers to using telehealth included: poor phone/internet connection and lack of access to technology. Facilitators to using telehealth included: a patient-focussed attitude, and recognition of the benefit of telehealth. Telehealth is being used across the entire spectrum of O&amp;P care. Once the significant barriers were resolved, like access to reliable internet/phone reception, telehealth was feasible. An outstanding telehealth experience was facilitated by practitioners who focused on the benefits that telehealth can provide (not the limitations), as well as giving O&amp;P users agency over the choice to use telehealth. There are opportunities to improve access to safe and effective O&amp;P telehealth services by adopting a right-touch approach to practitioner regulation, and advocating for reimbursement that supports better systems and procedures within clinical facilities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

<div> Background People who use drugs (PWUD) frequently seek care in the emergency department (ED). Little is known about ED physician perspectives and experiences integrating a harm reduction approach into care, including interventions that reduce the health, social and legal consequences of drug use without requiring a reduction in drug use. Objective This study aimed to describe the experiences of Canadian emergency physicians caring for PWUD, and facilitators and barriers to implementing harm reduction interventions in the ED. Methods Purposive sampling, using an existing national network, and snowball sampling techniques were used to recruit practicing emergency physicians. Semi-structured, one-on-one telephone interviews were conducted until theoretical data saturation was achieved. Interview recordings were transcribed and analyzed using latent content analysis. Interviews took place between June 2019 and February 2020. This work is a secondary analysis specifically focused on harm reduction approaches to care. Results 32 physician interviews were included. Participants had a median of 10 years of experience (range 1–33) and most (29/32) worked in urban EDs. Participants highlighted the complexities of caring for PWUD, including the intersection of structural vulnerability with substance use. The ED environment varied across Canada and either facilitated or hindered the adoption of harm reduction interventions. Additional barriers included a lack of training and experience; lack of community follow-up care; insufficient ED funding and staffing resources; and, tensions over the appropriate scope of emergency medicine practice. Facilitators included tailored education and training; specialized multidisciplinary teams; ED harm reduction champions; and standardized protocols. Conclusions Though variability existed in the adoption and practice of harm reduction in Canadian EDs, most interviewed physicians supported a harm reduction approach to care. To facilitate widespread ED adoption of harm reduction interventions, there is a need for standardized guidance, supplemental resources, facilitated culture change, and sufficient community-based services. </div>

<div> The burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) continues to rise, emphasizing the need for effective dietary interventions. Programs such as <i>Eat Better South Africa (EBSA)</i> advocate for low-carbohydrate high-fat (LCHF) dietary choices, especially in disadvantaged communities. However, the adoption of such approaches among healthcare professionals remains contentious. This qualitative study explores healthcare professionals’ perspectives on nutrition and the EBSA program, drawing on 16 in-depth individual interviews with physicians, nurses, and dietitians from False Bay Hospital, Groote Schuur Hospital, and a primary health clinic in Hout Bay, Western Cape, South Africa. Thematic analysis of the interviews revealed four main findings. Healthcare professionals lacked confidence in their nutritional knowledge, and while many were familiar with the LCHF diet, opinions varied regarding its sustainability and health implications. Concerns were raised about the high fat content and affordability of LCHF foods. Professionals acknowledged the value of group support in behaviour change, as promoted by EBSA, but expressed reservations about its strong emphasis on LCHF diets. Key challenges identified for patients included poverty, cultural beliefs, limited education, and access to nutritious foods. The findings highlight a reliance on traditional dietary advice, with uncertainties about the feasibility and affordability of LCHF diets. These findings offer novel insights into the complexities of implementing community-based dietary interventions in South Africa, with implications for policy and practice. </div>
