My key research interests relate to 2 areas: The first is collaborative research with health services providers related to aspects of critical/emergency nursing practice and continuing clinically nurse education. The second is digital technology in health and education which has been the focus of my grant applications and collaborations for many years. Digital health, specifically e product information for medicine is the focus of the current IHI H2020 Gravitate Health project that I lead tasks on KPI development and evaluation. I am continuing to work with health service providers also on projects related to digital health initiatives, eg, developing a patient-centred integrated care pathway for the management of chronic pancreatitis using an app. Digital health and technology will be the key direction of my research for the foreseeable future and I am currently working on interdisciplinary grant applications with 2 consortia related to emergency care and health and staff health and well-being respectively.

  'Open Window' Study - An evaluation of a novel art intervention using multi media in the treatment of patients undergoing stem cell transplantation
  Summary

  Over the past 25 years in health care, art has become increasingly recognised as a key ingredient in the planning and development of patient-centered and healing environments. This is not a new idea (Clayton and Opotow 2003; Crow et al 2002)and even today art, whose value in health lies in its ability to comfort, console and sustain (Wikoff 2004) is thought to reduce stress and anxiety levels, promote well-being and a positive mood in patients [Clayton and Opotow 2003; Staricoff et al 2001). Open Window' is a novel art intervention in the treatment of patients with haematological malignancies and has been available on a pilot basis in two rooms only on the Denis Burkitt Ward for the past year and a half. Patients on this ward are cared for in protective isolation in single, air conditioned en suite rooms and visiting is restricted. The rooms are clinical in appearance and views from the windows are restricted. 'Open Window' was developed specifically as an art intervention in response to the patients' environment and also because it may help patients adjust positively to their experience of having a life threatening illness during and after stem cell transplantation. Art specifically is thought to help patients modify or develop a new sense of self and self-esteem which is adversely affected by having a life threatening illness. Aims and Objectives .To measure the effect of 'Open Window' on patients' psychological well-being .To explore patient perceptions of how 'Open Window' influenced their experience of having a stem cell transplant.

  The development of an assistive navigational software platform to enable self management in chronic illness (e.g. COPD & Stroke)
  Summary

  Since the widespread introduction of a new generation of mobile smart tablets in 2010 the capabilities of the PC have been surpassed by a new highly intuitive, user friendly, mobile system. We are proposing to use this new assistive technology to create an application design which will allow patients with a variety of chronic illnesses eg. COPD, Diabetes etc. to tailor their own subjective recovery on various rewards based motivational paradigms and will also be transferrable to other chronic illnesses. This software application allows for the provision of self-management, is interactive, providing 'real time' rehabilitation data that is responsive to the subjective rehabilitation of the user on social, psychological and physical dimensions. This platform will provide the end user with a culturally attuned, individualised responsive application to enable self-management.

  Developing technological based educational, motivational and health promoting material to support self management in patients with chronic illnesses.
  Summary

  The purpose of this study using behaviour change principles is to develop technological based educational, motivational and health promoting material to support self management in patients with chronic illnesses. Objectives: . To explore care needs, sources of support & experiences of patients & carers living at home with chronic illness . To assess patient knowledge, ability and readiness to self manage their care needs in relation to chronic illness . To develop educational, motivational and health promoting material for use by patients and carers for generic and specific chronic illnesses . To optimise the self care management potential for patients with chronic illness An Action research design is used and it is a process by which behavioural science knowledge is integrated with scientific knowledge and applied to solve real organisational problems' (Shani and Passmore, 1985). In this study it is proposed that an initial reflective process will enable user/carer support needs to be identified. Using principles of behavioural change, the research team will then develop new resource material, or enhance existing material, to address the specific self management needs of this group. To complete the action research cycle, participants of the patient/carer group will be invited evaluate the developed material.

  Pathways to Persistence in Healthcare (Path2Health): Enhancing Workforce Resilience and Retention
  Summary

  This research project tackles the critical workforce shortages faced by European nations, including Norway, particularly in the healthcare sector " as detailed in the latest Norwegian Health and Hospital Plan. An anticipated surge in healthcare demand is forecasted, attributed to an ageing population, the advent of novel treatment options, and greater prosperity. This challenge is intensified by declining applications to health-related education, high dropout rates, up to 40% turnover among new healthcare professionals, and significant sick leave in the sector. Appropriately, Norway's recently launched National Health and Cooperation Plan 2024 " 2027 prioritizes recruiting and retaining skilled healthcare personnel as a crucial objective for the upcoming years. This project uses mixed methods to track healthcare students transitioning into professional roles, seeking to identify experiences and factors influencing education success and workforce engagement. By applying advanced statistical techniques to longitudinal data, we aim to pinpoint the main elements of job satisfaction and contributors to nurse retention over 15 years. Through randomized controlled trials, we will assess the impact of organizational and individual oriented educational interventions designed to reduce stress and improve sleep and recovery of healthcare workers, on enhancing employees' health and well-being at work, and examine their influence on absence rates and desire to remain in the profession. Success in this effort could identify support and skill development strategies enhancing employee adaptability and lifelong learning, areas where traditional education may lag. The project's digital tools and leadership programs, if effective, could greatly impact employee's health, well-being, and work adaptability, aiding in staff retention and operational efficiency in healthcare. This contributes to sustaining a strong healthcare workforce, aligning with societal objectives.

  PROMOCON (Promoting a Morally Competent Nurse)
  Summary

  This educational project is designed to address the need for innovative learning and teaching practices including a digital approach, ensuring advancements in this field, a full long-term sustainability, and a `green practice" of higher education on moral competences across EU. By stimulating the development of nurses" moral competence, the main aim is to address the existing gap in applied ethics education and practice targeting students, registered nurses, and educators. A Massive Open Online Course [MOOC], using digital technologies/materials including a toolkit and good practices guide for potential educators and learners will be developed. It will include case studies, examples, guided lectures and exercises helping learners to self-assess their attitudes/skills and competences. In this sense, the project outputs will enhance the effectiveness of educators in supporting the development of nurses" moral competences, and its methodology can be used by other HCPs educators thus improving shared values among the health professional community, turning in a multiplier effect on the population cared for, improving safety and satisfaction with care.
