To survey current community health nursing (CHN) courses offered in baccalaureate nursing programs in the mainland of China from the perspective on information available on websites of colleges and universities. A descriptive research design was used. Data were collected from the official websites of colleges and universities providing baccalaureate nursing programs in the mainland of China. A checklist was applied to identify academic year, type of course, credit, and class hours for both theory and practice teaching of CHN courses including Community Nursing, Geriatric Nursing, Rehabilitation Nursing, and Health Education. The prescribed textbooks were consulted for teaching content. Colleges ( =16) and universities ( =26) offering baccalaureate nursing programs with accessible online information for curriculum setting were recruited. The results showed that most of the accessible educational institutions (92.86%) have offered three to four investigated CHN courses. Community Nursing, Geriatric Nursna is still in its infancy from website information of colleges and universities. CHN courses should be included in curriculum design, and teaching reforms and innovations should be taken to prepare nursing students to practice in primary health care and community settings. To assess intensive care unit (ICU) nurses' demands for specialized experiential training and to provide inputs for developing an experiential training program for ICU nurses. A questionnaire for assessing ICU nurses' demands for experiential specialty training was distributed to 360 ICU nurses, selected through purposive sampling from two secondary hospitals and six tertiary hospitals in Hunan Province, China. Of the survey participants, 63.6% had undergone a specialty training program for ICU nurses. Of these individuals, 53.0% were satisfied with the training. Certification as a qualified nurse was considered an essential criterion for admission of trainees into the program by 81.8% of respondents, while 77.1% of respondents considered clinical working experience to be a critical requirement for selecting trainers. A total of 48.1% of the respondents preferred part-time training, and 36.1% considered a training cycle of 9-12 weeks to be reasonable. Moreover, they felt that the training methods shouldtheir experiences of specialty training programs were not satisfactory, and they had high demands for experiential training. Thus, to optimize training outcomes, continuous updating of training methods is essential. Moreover, a systematic, comprehensive, and multilevel experiential training program that targets the specific needs of ICU nurses is essential.
