1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThe context of practice is often not explicit in the discourse around the personal and professional resilience of nurses. The unique factors related to providing nursing care in home and community care may provide novel insight into the resilience of this health workforce. Therefore, this research addressed how nurses build and maintain resilience working in the home and community care sector.

methodA qualitative study was conducted between November 2022 to August 2023 using 36 in-depth interviews (29 registered practical nurses [RPNs], five supervisors of RPNs, two family/care partners (FCPs) of clients receiving home and community care services). Analysis was consistent with a grounded theory approach including coding and comparative methods.

resultsThe factors of personal and professional resilience were not distinct but rather mixed together in the experience of nurses having resilience working in the home and community care sector. The process of building and maintaining resilience as home and community care nurses was informed by three categories: (1) The conditions of working in HCC; (2) The rapport RPNs held with FCPs; and (3) The nurses' ability for supporting the 'self'. Multiple components to inform these categories were identified and illustrated by the words of the nurse participants.

conclusionThe process of building and maintaining resilience by RPNs working in the home and community care sector was guided by the day-to-day experiences of providing care for clients and the conditions of being a mobile health care provider. However, nurses may sense when they need to support their 'self' and must be empowered to request and receive support to do so.
