Nursing emigration in the United Kingdom: A qualitative exploration of the Spanish nursing community
Aim: To understand and describe the experiences and perceptions of migrant Spanish nurses working in the UK. Design: Online survey with open-ended questions. Methods: A total of 371 participants were recruited from online groups related to Spanish nurses working in the UK. Results: Four themes emerged from their content analysis: "Motivations for emigration: running away from job insecurity and unemployment," "Professional recognition," "Seeking better life stability" and "Future neediness: between a rock and a hard place." In these results, professional recognition was highlighted as a reason to stay in the host country, although the uncertainty represented by Brexit is reversing the migration trend that began years ago. Policymakers should be aware of these experiences to promote strategies and programmes, which encourage inclusion in the host country and will help these nurses in their transition process.

Occupational Factors Associated with Health-Related Quality of Life in Nursing Professionals: A Multi-Centre Study
Background: Nursing professionals are exposed to stressful situations arising from the work context that may affect health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The objective of this study was to analyse the relationship between sociodemographic and work-related variables regarding HRQoL in nursing professionals. Methods: A multi-centre, cross-sectional descriptive design was used. The participants consisted 1521 nurses working in healthcare centres, in both primary care and hospital care, in the eight provinces of the Andalusian Public Health System (APHS), Spain. Sociodemographic and work-related variables were analysed: Compassion fatigue, compassion satisfaction and burnout were measured using the professional quality of life questionnaire (ProQOL), and HRQoL was measured using the SF-12 health questionnaire. Results: Compassion fatigue, burnou, and, to a lesser extent, compassion satisfaction significantly influence the physical and mental components of HRQoL. The simple regression analysis showed that burnout and compassion fatigue were significantly associated with the mental component of HRQoL. Gender influenced the mental component of HRQoL. The rest of the sociodemographic and work-related variables were not significantly related to HRQoL. Conclusion: Work-related stress and repeated contact with situations of suffering influence HRQoL. Health systems must implement programmes to increase the emotional well-being of workers. ; The Ministry of Health of the Regional Government of Andalusia, Spain, and the Provincial Council ofAlmería (code number 2019/D15000/850-102/00056) have funded this research project, entitled "Evaluación delburnout y fatiga por compasión entre los profesionales de enfermería del Sistema Sanitario Público de Andalucía"(Spanish for "Evaluation of burnout and compassion fatigue in nurses of the Andalusian Public Health System")(AP-0100-2016)

Emergency Care for Women Irregular Migrants Who Arrive in Spain by Small Boat: A Qualitative Study
Background: this study aimed to describe and understand the experiences and health needs of women irregular migrants during emergency care provision upon arrival in Spain by small boat. Methods: a qualitative study based on Gadamer's phenomenology was used. The data collection included 13 in-depth interviews with women irregular migrants and 10 in-depth interviews with key informants. The study took place in the Spanish Red Cross' facilities between February 2017 and April 2018. Results: two main themes emerged from the data analysis: the need for emergency care focused on women irregular migrants with the sub-themes 'Women irregular migrants as objects of sexual exploitation' and 'The mother-child dyad as the axis in human trafficking'; and developing an emergency care gender policy for women irregular migrants, with the subthemes 'Healthcare in a police-controlled setting: detecting weaknesses' and 'Promoting screening and safety protocols focused on women irregular migrants'. Conclusions: women irregular migrants who arrive in Spain by small boat have specific needs and healthcare problems. Due to strict safety conditions during emergency care provision, rape and human trafficking can go unnoticed. Implications: interdisciplinary care protocols and new health policies that have a gender perspective are needed to improve the emergency care provided to women irregular migrants.
