“…Specifically, research studies that unearth new nursing-specific practices and processes that positively impact health outcomes for people with OUD, which can be scaled up and tested as interventions in experimental studies, are needed. The ANA and IntNSA (Finnell & Allen, 2013) standards of practice served as a valuable framework for categorizing how researchers and study participants think about and describe nursing practices with people with OUD. It has uncovered the need for further theoretical development in this area, as well as for including nurses involved in addictions treatment from geographic locales yet studied in future research endeavors.…”

“…These words and phrases were those of the articles' author(s) or research participants (e.g., quotes). Using the ANA and IntNSA (Finnell & Allen, 2013) standards of practice as an organizing framework, each of these words or phrases was labeled with one of the standards. The standards of practice for addictions nursing are assessment, diagnosis, outcomes identification, planning, implementation, and evaluation.…”

Millions of persons globally use opioids, and more than two million persons in the United States report having opioid use disorder (OUD). Increases in overdose deaths associated with opioids have led to a declaration of an opioid epidemic in the United States. Many healthcare professionals are involved in the treatment of persons experiencing OUD; several discipline-specific (e.g., medicine and public health) interventions are available. Nurses comprise large portions of the global and national healthcare workforces; therefore, investigating their unique, disciplinary contributions for addressing the opioid epidemic is warranted. This narrative literature review was undertaken to understand nurses' actions, practices, and work with persons with OUD. Using several databases and keywords, 21 research studies met the inclusion criteria. Most studies used qualitative designs; most quantitative studies were nonexperimental. The studies were conducted mostly in Europe and North America. Descriptions of nurses' practices with people with OUD varied in their levels of specificity and aligned well with the scopes of practice outlined by the American Nurses Association and the International Nurses Society on Addictions. The absence of theories (specifically nursing theories) used in the studies was notable. Theoretically informed studies that move beyond descriptions of nurses' practices are needed to advance discipline-specific knowledge and to showcase the unique contributions of nurses who make significant contributions to lessening adverse outcomes associated with OUD.

With the increased role of nurses in caring for patients with substance addiction, there was a clear need to develop the Addiction Nursing Competencies to guide and support the nursing workforce. A literature search revealed a lack of formal instruments to assess and guide nurses in caring for persons with substance use disorders. The Addiction Nursing Competencies were created using existing nursing education frameworks and addiction nurse care manager clinical guidelines.

Objective: to map the indicators of Good Nursing Practices in Primary Health Care, from the perspective of Collective Health, reported to the vulnerable social groups. Method: this is a scoping review according to the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews. The searches were carried out in2020 in six databases and in a virtual library. Independent reviewers performed the reading of the full texts, as well as treatment, analysis and synthesis of the content. Results: a total of 13 articles were found, the first from 2007 and the last from 2020. The data were classified according to the following empirical categories: assessment and control of health conditions(3 indicators); assessment of knowledge about health(3 indicators); use of sociodemographic characteristics to estimate risks or vulnerabilities(3 indicators); assessment and monitoring of health needs(5 indicators); promotion of safety and trust in health services(6 indicators); and assessment of the care process(4 indicators). Conclusion: the articles showed a variety of indicators that assess the interventions carried out in the context of Nursing in Primary Care with vulnerable social groups. These indicators are related to health conditions, especially those of the biopsychological body, reported to vulnerable populations, especially women, children, adolescents and older adults.
