Region of Employment and Intention to Remain Practicing or Exit the Profession Among Australian Nurses: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis
This cross-sectional study explored factors influencing nurses' intention to remain practicing or exit the profession across Australian metropolitan, regional, rural, and remote settings to inform workplace policies, education training, and career coaching.
Evidence on attrition and retention across geographical regions of employment is mixed. While much existing research on the nursing workforce has focused on job satisfaction, work-life balance, and workload, less attention has been given to the influence of work setting, nursing role, resilience, and career advancement opportunities-particularly in nonmetropolitan areas.
Validated scales were used to assess resilience and intention to stay in the profession. Intention to stay was analyzed using ordinal logistic regression and Youden's statistic was applied to estimate the year nurses were most likely to consider leaving.
Of 1252 survey accesses, 526 (42.0%) resulted in completion and 410 (77.9%) included a response to the intention-to-stay question. No statistically significant differences were found in age, gender, early career status, or years of experience among nurses working in different geographic areas. Using Youden's statistical method, 7 years of employment was identified as the threshold at which nurses were most likely to consider leaving their profession. Compared with metropolitan nurses, those in rural/remote areas were more likely to stay (adjusted odds ratio: 2.2; 95% CI: 1.14-4.10; and
= 0.019). Positive predictors included working in clinical roles, hospital or community settings, higher resilience, and career advancement opportunities.
Region, role, and resilience strongly influence nurses' intention to stay, with rural and remote nurses more likely to remain than metropolitan peers.
Targeted supports-including mentorship, reflective practice, resilience training, and career coaching-may improve retention, particularly when management practices are tailored to leverage the strengths of rural and remote settings while addressing context-specific needs to enhance workforce stability across all regions.

Using Solution-Focused Coaching in Social Work Practice with the Long-Term Unemployed to Promote Their Well-Being
Long-term unemployment, one of the challenges social workers face, produces a variety of non-monetary and social consequences. The helping professionals understand that interventions towards unemployed clients do not cover just the pure fact of their unemployment but that a holistic approach to the clients’ living situations is needed. This paper aims to promote well-being while implementing solution-focused coaching in working with unemployed clients in social work practice. The Reteaming coaching model is supported by two detailed case studies describing three key areas covered in the Reteaming process. Working with clients in both cases contributed to various elements of the client’s psychological well-being: positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning, and achievement. The Reteaming coaching model can be used effectively as a suitable structured approach, mainly used in strength-based social work.

Implementation of communication routines facilitating person‐centred care in long‐term residential care: A pilot study
Background Specific routines such as the development of personal communication plans can improve the interaction between people with communication disorders and healthcare staff. Objective: This pilot study explores a model for implementing communication routines including personal communication plans in long‐term residential care. Design, Setting and Participants This multiple case study includes two residential care facilities that differ in size and the number of languages spoken. Intervention or main variables studied implementation strategies involved workshops, individual coaching and follow‐up visits. Main outcome measure implementation was assessed using goal attainment measurements, and the staff's views about facilitators and barriers to implementation were explored through structured interviews using the Theoretical Domains Framework. Results The overall implementation success rate for the facilities was moderate, and one of the facilities showed promising results related to personal communication plans. Both facilities experienced barriers to implementation, including management problems and a lack of reminders. However, the two facilities seem to have different motivations for change. Discussion and Conclusions Regardless of the features of the facility, successful implementation requires stable and committed leadership. Moreover, experiences with language diversity may motivate staff to implement communication routines. Patient or Public Contribution The content of the implementation model used (i.e., choice of specific routines and implementation strategies) was coproduced by staff, managers and the researchers involved in this project. The staff and managers were responsible for the implementation of the new routines under the supervision of the researchers.
