Abstract

Background: As the global population ages, dementia has emerged as a pressing public health issue. Nurses play a pivotal role in dementia care; however, many lack adequate knowledge and confidence. Targeted educational interventions are essential to improve nursing competencies in dementia care. Objective: This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of educational interventions in improving nurses’ knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy in dementia care. Methods: A systematic search was conducted across four databases Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, and Science Direct following PRISMA guidelines. Studies published between 2020 and 2025 were screened using PICOS criteria and assessed for quality using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) appraisal tools. Data were synthesized narratively. Results: Ten studies were included, consisting of quasi-experimental, RCT, and qualitative designs. Interventions such as digital games, virtual reality, simulation, mobile learning, and arts-based methods demonstrated improvements in nurses’ knowledge, empathy, and confidence. Three major themes emerged: (1) enhanced knowledge of dementia, (2) improved attitudes and self-efficacy, and (3) deeper emotional engagement and humanistic understanding. Conclusion: Educational interventions particularly interactive and emotionally engaging formats effectively improve dementia-related competencies in nurses. These findings support the integration of innovative, person-centered training methods into nursing education and practice to enhance dementia care.

Abstract

Nurse retention in conflict zones remains a critical global issue, significantly influencing the sustainability of healthcare services. Nurses in these areas face numerous challenges, including safety risks, emotional stress, and inadequate compensation, which impact their decision to continue working in such environments. This systematic review aims to identify and analyze factors influencing nurse retention in conflict zones and propose intervention strategies to address these challenges. A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Data were extracted from Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and CINAHL databases. Studies focusing on nurse retention in conflict zones were included, with data extraction guided by the PICOS framework. The quality of the included studies was assessed using Joanna Briggs Institute tools. A total of fifteen studies were reviewed, identifying key factors for nurse retention. These include improved working conditions, adequate safety measures, financial incentives (e.g., risk allowances), and emotional support systems. Job satisfaction, influenced by job security and a supportive work environment, was also a significant determinant of retention. Emotional and psychological support systems were found to reduce burnout, thereby fostering nurse retention. A multifaceted approach, incorporating improved working conditions, enhanced financial incentives, and robust emotional support, is essential for retaining nurses in conflict zones. Future research should focus on the long-term impact of these strategies and their adaptation to region-specific needs.

Abstract

Many communities have long relied on wild animal consumption as part of cultural tradition and food stability. While culturally significant, this practice presents serious public health risks, particularly the transmission of zoonotic diseases through frequent human wildlife interaction in markets lacking proper food safety. These risks demand urgent public health responses that integrate cultural awareness. Community nurses, as key agents in primary health care, play a vital role in addressing these risks through culturally sensitive education and engagement. This study aims to review cultural perceptions of wild animal consumption and analyze their implications for community nursing, especially in strengthening culturally sensitive education and zoonotic risk. This systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines, using five databases (WoS, Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, ScienceDirect). Study selection was based on PICo criteria, risk of bias assessed with the JBI checklist, and data analyzed thematically. A total of 4,139 records were identified, and 3,940 duplicates were removed before screening. After title, abstract, and full text screening based on the PICo framework, 15 studies met the inclusion criteria. Fifteen studies were included, spanning regions in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Thematic analysis identified five key themes: (1) cultural beliefs, taboos, and symbolic meanings; (2) traditional uses and medicinal practices; (3) taste preference, nutritional value, and cultural identity; (4) nurse roles in community zoonotic literacy; and (5) socioeconomic drivers and market dynamics. The findings show that cultural beliefs and economic needs often outweigh health concerns in wildlife consumption. Strengthening the role of community nurses in culturally sensitive education and risk communication is essential to reduce zoonotic threats and improve public health responses.

Abstract

Background: Anemia in pregnancy is a major health issue with serious impacts. Family health promotion perception enhances understanding of anemia prevention during pregnancy and strengthens family empowerment to actively engage in supportive actions. However, there is limited research on how perceptions of family health promotion influence family empowerment in the prevention of anemia. Objective: To analyze the correlation between health promotion perceptions and family empowerment in preventing anemia during pregnancy Method:  This study used a descriptive correlational design. The sample consisted of 150 families of pregnant women who received antenatal care at Klampis Ngasem and Pacar Keling Health Centers in East Java, Indonesia, recruited through a consecutive sampling method. The independent variable was health promotion perception, while the dependent variable was family empowerment. The relationship between the variables was examined using Spearman’s Rho and Chi-Square statistical tests.    Result: Significant associations were found between dimensions of health promotion perceptions and family empowerment. Perceived susceptibility, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and perceived self-efficacy were significantly associated with all three dimensions of family empowerment (motivation, cognitive, and personal traits) (p < 0.05). However, perceived severity did not show a significant association with any dimension of family empowerment (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Strengthening health promotion perceptions, especially perceived susceptibility, benefits, barriers, and self-efficacy within families, can enhance their motivation, cognition, and personal traits. Health professionals are encouraged to involve families in antenatal education and promote positive health perceptions to improve support for preventing anemia during pregnancy.
