Arithmetic Does not Deal With All the Factors’
Since 1984, at least 11 hospitals have left NHS England to return to charitable control. This paper examines how and why these transfers took place, based on an analysis of political records, campaign materials and news coverage. Each of these voluntary takeovers was the outcome of lengthy community‐led campaigns against the permanent closure of the hospital. We identify three identities of these hospitals mobilised during the campaigns against t…
Understanding Staff Experiences and Support Needs Relating to the Deaths of People Experiencing Homelessness
Purpose Staff supporting people who are homeless and facing severe and multiple disadvantage are frequently exposed to deaths of those they support yet anecdotally receive limited preparation or training to cope with this. Evidence suggests those who receive training and are competent to cope with death are less likely to experience burnout. Staff well‐being is a core concern within psychologically‐ and trauma‐informed support. Little attention h…
I’m Here, I’m Part of This as Well’
Female partners of prostate cancer (PCa) survivors are a cohort of cancer carers exposed to social and economic vulnerability. This vulnerability can be compounded by the impact of living in rural/remote areas, yet the experiences of these partners have received little attention and a gender‐based approach is needed. We conducted an exploratory qualitative study to examine the experiences of female partners of PCa survivors living in rural/remote…
Engaging in Communication to Promote Healthy Ageing
Background To promote healthy ageing, it is crucial to involve older adults in social planning. Preventive home visits allow older adults to express their opinions, with home visitors playing a key role in gathering and relaying this information to decision‐makers. Thus, highlighting the perspectives of home visitors is essential for maximising the utility of the collected information. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to gain a deeper und…

Background Mental health issues among children are today a growing global health problem. The school nurse’s role is to work in a health supporting and promoting way. The school nurse has a unique opportunity to identify mental health issues since they meet all children during the health dialogs, which schools offer to all pupils on a regular basis. Aim To describe school nurses’ experience of identifying and supporting pupils with mental health …
Assessing the Impact of Workplace Stressors and Coping Strategies on Social Intervention Professionals
Professionals engaged in social interventions are often exposed to environments characterized by chronic stress. The sustained empathic engagement with populations facing high levels of adversity increases professionals’ vulnerability to developing secondary traumatic stress (STS), which can negatively impact their performance and well‐being, particularly in the absence of effective coping strategies. This study aims to assess STS in a sample of …

A Cup of Tea and a Chat
Older adults receiving aged care services within their own homes have high prevalence rates of depression and anxiety. Psychological treatments are effective for this population, but mental health services are underutilised.

Troubleshooting Social Prescribing and the Arts in East London
Engagement in the arts has been shown to benefit health by supporting both prevention and treatment, leading to the concept of creative health. The social prescribing agenda has spurred the development of dedicated arts on prescription programmes; however, the creative health agenda is mostly delivered by community arts organisations which lack a specific brief for health and whose contribution to social prescribing is under‐researched. Supported…
