An inpatient HIV support nurse to promote engagement in outpatient HIV care.
In this paper, the investigators describe an inpatient HIV support nurse to promote engagement in outpatient HIV care. It provides two case reports and a discussion. The investigators indicate that their hospital has employed an RN specializing in HIV care coordination for more than a decade on their dedicated HIV unit and has recently created a position to extend this work to PLWH who have been admitted to the 42 other adult units in their hospital.

Communication and shared understanding between parents and resident-physicians at night.
The researchers studied communication breakdowns evidenced by lack of shared understanding between parents and night-team residents about the reason for admission and care plan. After conducting a prospective cohort study of 286 parents and 37 night-team senior residents, they found that parents and residents reported that they shared an understanding with one another about care plans in 86.0percent and 73.1 percent of cases, respectively.
