Our results support previous research suggesting that cannabinoids are a safe and effective treatment for TS and should be considered in treatment-resistant cases. Further studies are needed to substantiate our findings.

Objectives: This article discusses the real-life experience of two senior registrars who are approaching the end of their training under the 2012 Competency Based Fellowship Program. We have shared some practical tips to assist trainees in completing the Program, with particular emphasis on examination preparation. Conclusion: Whilst stressful at times, we believe that going through the Competency Based Fellowship Program has helped us build our knowledge, skills base, and expertise for practising psychiatry as consultants.

Although ongoing education is an expectation of all nurses in today's climate of increasing technology and patient acuity, little is known about the attitudes, beliefs, and values of the general staff nurse toward on-the-job learning. The authors detail the factors that influence the learning ability of nurses on general medical-surgical units in a teaching hospital in relation to their nursing practice. Findings of what promotes learning, what interferes with learning, and how learning is integrated into nursing practice are outlined. Implications for the future are discussed.

Our research suggests that work-life balance can be subjectively and objectively measured. There are phases of good and bad work-life balance, depending on stage of career and other commitments. Work-life balance may be an indicator of the health of individuals and organisations. Due to its complexity, with intrinsic and extrinsic factors involved, solutions are unlikely to be simple. Further studies are needed to substantiate our findings.
