Healthcare interprofessional palliative care educational needs
BACKGROUND: Universal access to palliative care (PC) is a human right that most countries have not accomplished. Effective PC delivery requires an interprofessional team approach. Healthcare professional education is critical to bolstering PC service integration, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where PC is least available. Jamaica is a LMIC with inadequate PC. This study aimed to explore the PC experiences and educational n…

Investigation of Covid-19 transmission during the first community outbreak in a remote island population, Falkland Islands, April to June 2022
After 2 years of no community outbreaks of COVID-19, the Falkland Islands (FI) reported their first community case in April 2022.

We undertook a retrospective cohort study to determine the extent of transmission and the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccine in a population with limited natural immunity. We extracted dat…

Specifically, disconnect occurred in the development and implementation of the latest ‘decentralisation’ reforms because they were formulated via a highly centralised policy-making process and then implemen…
