“…Numerous academics have stressed the significance of training in relation to QI. As indicated previously, a negative approach with respect to training was recognised as a main obstacle in implementing a QI initiative (Holden et al, 2021). Training is an instrument that assists a firm to attain its TQM objectives and to adhere to the needs of its clientele (Ajgaonkar et al, 2021).…”

“…Moreover, additional education with the objective of acquiring more aptitudes and knowledge should be put in place in order to facilitate successful QI instigation. In burn services in Malawi and Ethiopia, in relation to QI initiatives, major enablers included efficacious KS, whereas a negative ethos with respect to training was a main obstacle (Holden et al ., 2021). Through a literature review of health professions education, KS was found to be an important factor affecting QI (Matinho et al ., 2022).…”

PurposeThe aim of this research is to determine the impact of a learning organisation (LO) on developing quality improvement practices (QIPs) and to propose knowledge-sharing (KS) as a moderator which is anticipated to support the beneficial effect of a LO on QIP. A further objective is to establish whether training provision raises the abilities of healthcare organisations (HCOs) to attain greater standards of QIP via a LO and KS.Design/methodology/approachA total of 240 responses, obtained from employees working at private HCOs in Jordan, comprised the valid dataset. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was utilised for data analysis. Multigroup analysis (MGA) was performed to compare the impact of workers who had or had not undergone training.FindingsThe findings indicated that QIP was significantly enhanced by LO. HCOs with the objective of converting a KS-moderated LO could attain improved QIP standards, but within the surveyed establishments, this effect was only appreciated at modest degrees. By performing MGA, no variations were identified in the impact of workers.Practical implicationsManagers should place more emphasis on training and learning within HCOs. However, respondents did indicate that their establishments had notable degrees of KS, suggesting a potential strength that could be used positively by the managerial hierarchy.Originality/valueThis study encompasses an original contribution to contemporary scholarship in the field of knowledge management and quality through its examination of the moderating effect of KS on LO and QIP.

“…Holden et al demonstrated the effectiveness of providing an online forum in order to help nurses in Malawi and Ethiopia more collaboratively develop quality improvement campaigns for burn victims. 58 Connecting plastic surgery residents with experts and peers from around the globe can be a useful way to share knowledge and establish networks through open dialogue. This form of global education is already taking root, particularly due to COVID-19.…”

Lack of surgical access severely harms countless populations in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Many types of surgery could be fulfilled by the plastic surgeon, as populations in these areas often experience trauma, burns, cleft lip and palate, and other relevant medical issues. Plastic surgeons continue to contribute significant time and energy to global health, primarily by participating in short mission trips intended to provide many surgeries in a short time frame. These trips, while cost-effective for lack of long-term commitments, are not sustainable as they require high initial costs, often neglect to educate local physicians, and can interfere with regional systems. Education of local plastic surgeons is a key step toward creating sustainable plastic surgery interventions worldwide. Virtual platforms have grown popular and effective—particularly due to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic—and have shown to be beneficial in the field of plastic surgery for both diagnosis and teaching. However, there remains a large potential to create more extensive and effective virtual platforms in high-income nations geared to educate plastic surgeons in LMICs to lower costs and more sustainably provide capacity to physicians in low access areas of the world.

“…As nursing students are at the frontline of caring for burned patients, they are indispensable in the multidisciplinary burn care team. In addition to carrying out routine care and specialized burn care for patients as drainage tube care, scar physiotherapy, wound care (Holden et al, 2022). Nursing students undertaking clinical training at a burn unit in which they get sufficient knowledge about the physiological effects of burns and be able to quickly analyze and make decisions regarding minor changes in patient status.…”

Background: Nursing students encounter serious barriers in burn units, as caring for the burned patient requires greater responsibility than in most types of serious illness. Aim: Assess nursing students' perception regarding training barriers at burn unit. Subjects and Method: A descriptive research design was used. Setting: This study was conducted at burn unit at Emergency Hospital in Tanta University Hospital. Subjects: The study's participant was be recruited by systemic random sample of 285 students from second academic year students. Method: The nursing students were met during their training at burn unit, the nursing students filled the questionnaire at a period ranged from 30 to 45 minutes. Tools: Two tools were used. Tool (one): Perception of Training Barriers at Burn Unit Questionnaire, it includes two parts Part I; Socio-demographic Data, Part II; Barriers Affecting Nursing Students' Training at Burn Unit Questionnaire; which assessed student nurses' perception regarding physical, administrative, social, and psychological barrier. Tool (Two): A psychometric scale, it includes two parts. Part I; Anxiety state assessment tool which measured anxiety as state. Part II; Anxiety trait assessment tool which measured anxiety as a trait of the personality Results: About two third of students had moderate level of perception about barriers affecting their training at burn unit. Conclusion and recommendation: There was highly statistically significant positive correlation among anxiety state score, anxiety trait and total perception score so it is important to teach nursing students coping strategies for dealing with stressful situations.
