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

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) results from insulin resistance and is linked to obesity, which accounts for 80% of diabetes cases. The elderly are particularly vulnerable, facing high treatment costs and self-care challenges, including blood sugar monitoring and diet adherence. Complications include hypoglycemia, neuropathy, and cardiovascular diseases. Telenursing is a promising intervention that enhances adherence and provides remote education. However, further research is needed to assess its long-term effectiveness. Objective: this study aims to assess the effectiveness of telenursing in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus in the elderly. Method: This scoping review follows the PRISMA-ScR guidelines, analyzing studies from ProQuest, PubMed, and Scopus. Inclusion criteria focused on studies evaluating the impact of telenursing on elderly patients with T2DM using quantitative or mixed-method approaches. Results: From 716 screened articles, seven met the inclusion criteria. Most studies were conducted in Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Slovenia, with one multinational study involving ten countries. Six studies employed quantitative methodologies, including randomized controlled trials and clinical studies. Findings indicate that telenursing significantly improves medication adherence, blood glucose control, and self-management. It reduces the need for in-person visits and enhances patient education, leading to better glycemic control and lower complication risks. Conclusions: Telenursing proves to be an effective approach for managing T2DM in the elderly, promoting adherence and self-care while reducing healthcare facility visits. Further research is required to evaluate its long-term sustainability and effectiveness.
