Inductive Thematic Analysis

ObjectivesTo explore the services National Health Service (NHS)-based sport and exercise medicine (SEM) clinics can offer, and the barriers to creating and integrating SEM services into the NHS.MethodsSemi-structured interviews were undertaken to collect data from identified ‘stakeholders’. Stakeholders were identified as individuals who had experience and knowledge of the speciality of SEM and the NHS. An inductive thematic analysis approach was taken to analyse the data.ResultsN=15 stakeholder interviews. The management of musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries (both acute and chronic) and concussion were highlighted as the two key services that SEM clinics can offer that would most benefit the NHS. MSK ultrasound was also mentioned by all stakeholders as a critical service that SEM clinics should provide. While exercise medicine is an integral part of SEM, SEM clinics should perhaps not have a heavy exercise medicine focus. The key barriers to setting up SEM clinics were stated to be convincing NHS management, conflict with other specialities and a lack of awareness of the speciality.ConclusionThe management of acute MSK injuries and concussion should be the cornerstone of SEM services, ideally with the ability to provide MSK ultrasound. Education of others on the speciality of SEM, confirming consistent ‘unique selling points’ of SEM clinics and promoting how SEM can add value to the NHS is vital. If the successful integration of SEM into the NHS is not widely achieved, we risk the NHS not receiving all the benefits that SEM can provide to the healthcare system.

Advanced Nursing Practice

Im Artikel werden persönliche Erfahrungen als Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP) in der Thoraxchirurgie im National Health Service (NHS) in Großbritannien geschildert. Die tägliche Routine wurde von sieben Kompetenzdomänen bestimmt, nämlich: Management des Gesundheits- und Krankheitszustandes des Patienten, Beziehungen zwischen Pflegeperson und Patient, Lehren und Unterrichten, professionelle Rolle, Leitung und Führung innerhalb der Patientenversorgung, Qualitätsmanagement sowie kulturelle und spirituelle Kompetenzen. Diese Elemente wurden durch die Zusatzqualifikation, selbstständig Medikamente verschreiben und verordnen zu dürfen, erweitert, was dazu beitrug, eine nahtlose Erbringung von Pflege- und Serviceleistungen zu gewähren. Die Position wurde zur zentralen Anlaufstelle im multi-professionellen Team und stellte eine kontinuierliche Weiterführung der Pflege von Patienten und ihren Familien sicher – auch über Krankenhausgrenzen hinweg.
