[The world is changing, and so is the world of care]. / Le monde change, l'univers du soin aussi.

In the post-Covid context, which is unstable and changing, what is the role of the team when it is reduced to operating with a growing number of temporary staff? The medical desertification that is gradually taking hold in certain regions is a cause for concern, as is the growing disaffection of nurses throughout France. It is essential to draw up a map that incorporates survival oases, in order to meet the essential need to provide care anyway, while at the same time perpetuating the process of improving care. Advanced practice nursing faces many challenges.

[Clinical and transversal competencies of advanced practice nurses (APNs) within a cellular therapy team (SFGM-TC)]. / Compétences cliniques et transversales des infirmier(e)s en pratique avancée (IPA) au sein d'une équipe de thérapie cellulaire (SFGM-TC).

The advanced practice nurse (APN) has been introduced in France, following the 2016 health law and implementing decrees published in 2018. In this context, the French Society for Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) has already issued guidelines regarding the allocation of APNs' new clinical competences and their collaboration with physicians. It is now providing new recommendations on the transversal activities that can be fulfilled by APNs, such as research, leadership, training and teaching. Additionally, the guidelines outline how APNs can cooperate with other professionals in departments of haematology and cellular therapy, including nurses, coordinators and health managers.

[The nursing role in the face of health inequalities]. / Le rôle infirmier face aux inégalités de santé.

Social inequalities in health refer to differences in health status between people or groups of people, linked to factors that are particularly social, unequal and considered morally or ethically unacceptable. These may be major differences in life expectancy, or in the greater likelihood of being a carrier of disease, depending on the social group to which one belongs or the territory in which one lives. Accentuated during a health crisis, they are, however, avoidable.

[The occupational health nurse, a key player in quality of life in the workplace]. / L'infirmier en santé au travail, un acteur clé de la qualité de vie en milieu professionnel.

The term quality of life at work (QWL) first appeared in the 2000s, and in particular since December 2020, when working conditions were taken into account. QWL then became Quality of Life and Working Conditions (QWLWC). It therefore became an essential subject to promote, in which the occupational health nurse plays a crucial role. By working closely with employees, occupational health nurses play an active role in preventing occupational risks and promoting health and well-being.

[The nursing role in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy]. / Le rôle infirmier lors de la psychothérapie assistée par psychédéliques.

In this article, we aim to highlight the specific role of nurses in the interdisciplinary model of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy. We argue that the plural competencies of our profession are at the heart of future issues in psychiatry and the use of psychedelics.

[An environment conducive to well-being and nursing professionalism]. / Pour un environnement propice au bien-être et à la professionnalisation infirmière.

There are three stages in the professionalization process for nurses, within which academic training and nursing science are developing. The evolution of initial training and the 2025 referential will require an integrative alternation that will reinforce skills. The professionalization of students should be based on the analysis of professional practices, in a caring and ecological environment for individuals.

Urgent care will be provided by the hospitals of the Assistance publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, which are responsible for the administration of the polyclinic.

[Study on the integration of emergency IPAs in Nord-Pas-de-Calais: supervisors' perspectives]. / Étude sur l'intégration des IPA urgences dans le Nord-Pas-de-Calais : perspectives des encadrants.

In the context of the introduction of advanced practice nurses in emergency departments (APNs), the Collège de Médecine d'Urgence du Nord-Pas-de-Calais teamed up with the Unité de Formation et de Recherche des Sciences de la Santé et du Sport at the University of Lille to conduct a survey of emergency department management teams, with the aim of gaining a better understanding of their needs. The results revealed a number of obstacles and levers to the implementation of APNs, and led to a better understanding of the patient pathways in these departments. As a result, the content of the university teaching program could be reviewed with a view to meeting the needs expressed in the field.

[Portrait of an IPA PSM specialising in suicide prevention]. / Portrait d'un IPA PSM spécialisé en prévention du suicide.

Suicide prevention is a major public health issue, both nationally and internationally. The management of suicidal patients leaving emergency departments is crucial to preventing the risk of suicidal recurrence. Advanced practice nurses in psychiatry and mental health can provide real added value thanks to their specialist training, their ability to carry out a comprehensive and detailed clinical assessment, their mastery of medicinal and non-medicinal therapeutic interventions, their skills in coordinating the various players involved in the care pathway, their commitment to prevention and their skills in supporting the development of the skills of care and research teams.

[The role of the coordinating nurse in a transverse clinical nutrition unit]. / Rôle de l'infirmier de coordination dans une unité transversale de nutrition clinique.

Malnutrition is a common pathology, often underdiagnosed, and is associated with numerous chronic diseases. Transversal clinical nutrition units (TCNU) are being implemented to improve the screening and management of malnutrition. The coordinating nurse plays a key role within a TCNU: organizing and coordinating personalized care pathways for malnourished patients, especially those with complex pathologies requiring multidisciplinary care. This article outlines the responsibilities of the coordinating nurse based on the experience of the TCNU established at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital (Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris).

[IPA in primary care: a new gateway to the healthcare system]. / L'IPA en soins primaires : une nouvelle porte d'entrée dans le système de santé.

In France, the supply of healthcare services remains insufficient to meet the growing needs of the population, which has prompted the legislator to authorize direct access to certain professionals, in particular advanced practice nurses (APNs) working in coordinated practice structures. This article details an innovative multi-professional pathway in a nursing home, where the APN takes direct charge of people without a general practitioner, with the aim of improving their access to care and reintegrating them into the healthcare system.

[The bibliography group, between dream and reality in nursing practice]. / Le groupe de bibliographie, entre rêve et réalité de l'exercice infirmier.

The shock of reality that nursing students face when they start out will affect the nursing profession even more in the future, as it faces a recruitment crisis in the midst of renewal. Restoring meaning to the nursing profession is a complex and daunting challenge. By providing access to scientific literature, the bibliography group can contribute to this, based on an Evidence-Based Nursing approach. This initiative, which is beneficial for professionals whose skills development is thus encouraged, is designed to be simple and accessible to as many people as possible.

[Nurses, a lever for reinforcing the healthcare offer]. / L'infirmier, un levier pour renforcer l'offre de soins.

Nurses are omniscient in the French healthcare system. They are an essential link in the healthcare system, and their added value is unquestionable. The profession needs to be revamped to keep pace with current developments in nursing practices and the needs of the population.

[The departmental council, a key player in prevention in the region]. / Le conseil départemental, un acteur clé de la prévention sur le territoire.

The decentralization laws of 1982, known as the Defferre law, created the local civil service, giving local authorities powers in areas such as social action and healthcare. The department of Seine-Saint-Denis is a mixed territory with worrying health and social characteristics. To meet these challenges, the Seine-Saint-Denis departmental council has adopted a strong prevention policy. As part of multi-disciplinary teams, state-qualified nurses play a central role in implementing these various preventive missions.

[Imagination supported by brief therapies]. / L'imagination soutenue par les thérapies brèves.

While we dream during sleep, our psyche gives free rein to its imagination during waking phases. During nursing interviews, should the patient be allowed to mobilize this imaginative capacity? One answer may come from the Palo Alto school of thought, which uses the imagination in a relational space, so that it becomes an active element in psychic change. In the practice of mental health nursing, it is possible to mobilize this imaginative part, supported by brief therapies, and turn it into a therapeutic path.

[Better assessment, better care: Quetci, a questionnaire for assessing cognitive disorders in nursing practice]. / Mieux évaluer, mieux soigner : le Quetci, un questionnaire d'évaluation des troubles cognitifs IDE.

Cognitive disorders can have significant repercussions on the quality of care and daily life for patients. We have developed a new tool specifically designed for nursing practice to identify these problems in patients with brain tumors. The Cognitive Impairment Assessment Questionnaire for nursing practice is an objective, quick and easy-to-administer tool that is readily accepted by patients.

[The nurse coordinator, a central element in the improved rehabilitation pathway after surgery]. / L'infirmier coordonnateur, élément central du parcours de réhabilitation améliorée après chirurgie.

Enhanced Rehabilitation after Surgery (ERAS) is a paradigm involving a new organization of surgical care pathways. Its main objective is to maximize the rehabilitation of people undergoing surgery. It is a multimodal approach based on evidence-based data and high-level recommendations, combined with daily assessment of the quality of the patient's surgical pathway using clinical indicators grouped around some twenty recommendations. This implementation requires the involvement of all professionals involved in the care process. The ERAS nurse coordinator is one of them.

[National survey of Advanced Practice Nurses in oncology-haematology: Evaluation of activity and continuing education]. / Enquête nationale auprès des infirmiers en pratique avancée mention oncologie-hématologie : évaluation de l'activité et de la formation continue.

INTRODUCTION: The number of Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) has significantly increased in France since 2019, with the number of graduates expected to reach 1700 by the end of 2023, up from approximately 60. Fifteen percent of them specialize in oncology-hematology (APN-OH). Data on their activities, access to continuing education, and expectations are limited. METHODS: We conducted an observational study among practicing APN-OHs in France. A questionnaire was distributed from June to September 2023. RESULTS: Of the 55 responding APN-OHs, 78.3% worked in Cancer Centers or within University Hospital Centers. Their primary motivation for becoming APN-OH was to enhance their nursing practice and deepen their medical knowledge, with teaching and research interests remaining marginal. Their level of responsibility generally aligned with their expectations and the medical staff was perceived as supportive. The main challenges were of logistical and material nature. The heterogeneity in APN-OH training was seen as a limiting factor in the attractiveness of the profession. The most significant gaps in their education revolved around the lack of practical cases. CONCLUSION: This study highlights that the primary concern of APN-OHs is to strengthen their practical training. Medical personnel are perceived as supportive, but challenges related to working conditions and education persist. It is essential to consider these factors to support the deployment of APN-OHs across the country and improve ongoing education.

[The transition of adolescents with sickle cell disease: an interdisciplinary exchange]. / La transition des adolescents drépanocytaires, un échange interdisciplinaire.

With the rising incidence of sickle cell disease, this chronic pathology is becoming the most common genetic disease in France. Advances in care have led to a marked improvement in life expectancy. Caregivers in pediatric facilities are therefore increasingly confronted with the question of the transition to adulthood of the adolescents they have been following since birth. As nurses working in Robert-Debré's transfusion and curative medicine unit, in 2022, adolescents accounted for 57 % of sickle cell patients enrolled in our transfusion exchange program. Adolescence is a period of major change, and the repercussions of the disease are all the more pronounced. This raises the issue of transferring them to the adult sector.

[Working in a CSAPA, care through relationships]. / Travailler en CSAPA, le soin par la relation.

In a medical-social setting, the work of addiction care providers is somewhat unusual. Drawing on the teachings of Carl Rogers and his person-centred approach, and Hildegard Peplau and her theory of care based on the interpersonal relationship, this article explores the possibilities of welcoming a user to an addictology care, support and prevention center that is trying to rethink its operations at a time when advanced practice nurses are being deployed.
