RESUMO
During the current coronavirus pandemic, undergraduate nurse teaching is facing many challenges. Universities have had to close their campuses, which means that academics are working from home and may be coping with unfamiliar technology to deliver the theoretical part of the undergraduate nursing curriculum. Emergency standards from the Nursing and Midwifery Council have allowed theoretical instruction to be replaced with distance learning, requiring nursing academics to adapt to providing a completely virtual approach to their teaching. This article provides examples of tools that can be used to deliver the theoretical component of the undergraduate nursing curriculum and ways of supporting students and colleagues in these unprecedented times.

The following case study describes the Barwon Primary Care Forum (BPCF) model for local area planning and the value this model has brought to the member agencies. The model was developed from a locally identified need for social planning which historically had resulted in numerous community consultations and needs assessments, often duplicative and potentially burdensome to the community. The process for this local area planning model is described in detail.
