[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.

[Denormalizing smoking, a public health issue for society and hospitals alike]. / Dénormaliser le tabagisme, un enjeu de santé publique dans la société mais aussi à l'hôpital.

Since the industrialization of tobacco production in the last century, tobacco has been a popular product in all walks of life. Its harmful effects, now well recognized, have led to the implementation of increasingly active health policies. Its place in public life is increasingly controlled. This approach aims to prevent the continuation of risky behaviours associated with its use. Hospitals are becoming a model for the denormalization of smoking.

[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.

[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.

[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 temporary polyclinic in the Olympic Village]. / La polyclinique temporaire du village olympique.

The Olympic and Paralympic Games are a sporting event that welcomes more than ten thousand top-level athletes. These athletes require daily care before and after training and competition, but are also prone to serious injuries. The polyclinic, set up in the athletes' village, will provide a wide range of high-quality care for the various delegations. Urgent care will be provided by the hospitals of the Assistance publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, which are responsible for the administration of the polyclinic.

[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 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.

[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.

[Heart failure cooperation protocol: A new way of thinking about the care of heart failure patients]. / Protocole de coopération en insuffisance cardiaque : penser autrement la prise en charge.

To meet the care needs of heart failure patients, a nationwide cooperation protocol has been developed. This heart failure cooperation protocol (PCIC) enables nurses to acquire new skills by delegating medical acts.

[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.

[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 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.

[The benefits of implementing IPA psychiatry and mental health in prisons]. / Intérêt de l'implantation IPA psychiatrie et santé mentale en milieu carcéral.

Supporting people placed under house arrest is a contemporary challenge. Between popular demand for risk control, judicial demand for recidivism prevention and hospital prerogatives, the articulation between care providers is often perilous. The advanced practice nurse plays a key role in the transition from inside to outside.

[Implementation of RPNs in psychiatry and mental health]. / Implantation des IPA en psychiatrie et santé mentale.

Advanced practice nursing, a profession created in 2018, is expanding rapidly in France. In order for it to be operational, but also to facilitate its deployment and implementation, changes in the legislative and regulatory texts concerning all the mentions are still necessary. For advanced practice nurses with a diploma in psychiatry and mental health, the challenges in terms of training, implementation and prospects for autonomy are significant in view of the difficulties in this care sector.

[Evidence-based practice and nursing: intramuscular injection in psychiatry]. / Pratique factuelle et soins infirmiers : l'injection intramusculaire en psychiatrie.

Intramuscular injection is a frequent technical procedure in psychiatry. In France, nurses who perform this care do not have official guidelines for good practice. The advanced practice nurse is a field actor who can promote evidence-based practice to improve the quality of care for the benefit of the patient.
