    ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of Nursing Ethics courses and faculty in undergraduate schools in China. Methods A self-designed questionnaire was developed based on literature review and expert consultation to assess the current status of Nursing Ethics courses and faculty for nursing undergraduates students. Using convenience sampling method,the electronic questionnaire was distributed to the course directors of Nursing Ethics at undergraduate schools across the country from July to August 2023. Results A total of 118 Nursing Ethics course leaders completed the questionnaire,with 34 excluded from analysis due to completion time less than three minutes,resulting in an effective response rate of 71%. Among the 84 undergraduate schools,76%(64/84) had Nursing Ethics as a compulsory course,while 49%(41/84) did not allocate practical hours for the Nursing Ethics course. Lecture-based teaching remained the primary teaching method or format for Nursing Ethics courses[84(100%)]. In evaluation,attendance checks combined with process evaluation and final theoretical exams were the primary assessment methods[46(55%)]. Additionally,27%(23/84) of Nursing Ethics course leaders had not received ethics training,while 98%(82/84) believed that ethics training should be provided for course instructors. Conclusion The status of nursing ethics courses has gradually risen,though there are still issues need to be improved such as “emphasizing theory over practice” in teaching,a single teaching or assessment method,and insufficient continued education related to ethics that teachers receive. In the future,active development of online teaching resources,incorporating assessment methods such as practical evaluation reports and short essays,scenario simulations and virtual patients for practical teaching,increasing training opportunities and resources for teachers,and inviting teachers with backgrounds in psychology,sociology,law,and related fields to the teaching team,can be considered to comprehensively improve the teaching quality of nursing ethics.

Five scales,including the Reproductive Concerns After Cancer Scale(RCAC),had high-quality evidence of “inadequate” measurement properties and were rated as C-level scales,and the others were rated as B-level scales. Among them,the Chinese version of the RCAC had high levels of evidence of “adequate” structural validity,internal consistency,hypothesis testing,and cross-cultural validity,and the measurement properties were reported more comprehensively. Conclusion Compared to other scales,the measurement properties of the Chinese version of the RCAC have been evaluated in the most comprehensive way,with a better reliability and validity,and can be recommended for use.

    As China’s aging population continues to accelerate,the health issues of the elderly are increasingly being taken seriously. As the main place for elderly care,a well-established and mature community nursing service system can meet the health needs of the elderly and reduce the medical burden caused by aging. This article summarizes the outreach service model of the Hong Kong Christian United Hospital’s elderly community,which includs four service models and service categories:elderly community nursing services,community geriatric assessment teams,integrated care and discharge support for elderly patients,and patient support call centre. Compared with the current development status of community continuity nursing in mainland China,suggestions for improvement are proposed in order to provide reference for the development of community continuity nursing in China.
