Journal Club December 2025 - Working with mothers to care for hospitalised children.

Welcome to the December 2025 session of the Harry Crossly Children's Nursing Development Unit (HCCNDU) Journal Club, where we are collectively reading an article, titled ‘Distinctive nursing practices in working with mothers to care for hospitalised children at a district hospital in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa: a descriptive observational study’. It was written by North, et al and published in the Journal, BMC in 2020. To participate in this journal club, watch the video above and then consider the questions presented at the end (and below for ease of access). You may want to watch with a group of colleagues and then relate the questions to your clinical setting together, but it is also fine to watch and reflect alone. If you have any insights from watching and answering the questions, that you feel happy to share, feel free to comment below. Reflective questions: 1. How does your current facility support or hinder mothers' continuous presence with hospitalised children? 2. What policies, resources, or attitudes create barriers, and what enables family involvement? 3. Think about a recent situation where you worked with a mother caring for her hospitalised child. Did you view her as someone who needed your permission and instruction, or as a capable partner with deep knowledge of her child? 4. What would it take in your setting to move from "tolerating" family presence to deliberately "facilitating" it? The Harry Crossley Children's Nursing Development Unit is a nurse-led teaching and scholarship unit in the Department of Paediatrics and Child Health at The University of Cape Town, situated at the Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa. Working with interdisciplinary colleagues from both academic and clinical settings, the goal of the CNDU is to strengthen the capacity of sub-Saharan Africa's nurses to provide contextually appropriate high quality nursing care for children. For more information about CNDU check out our website - https://health.uct.ac.za/childrensnur... A journal club is a planned gathering to review and discuss published research articles and provide a foundation for evidence-based nursing practice. Participation has been found to be positively associated with increased familiarity with the research process, increased scientific reading and professional updating, and application of findings to clinical practice. With more than 10 years’ experience, the HCCNDU journal club has already reached nurses of all cadres in countries across the continent.
