Background: Positive work environment is the corner stone for control and relief of work to family conflict (WFC).
Objectives: To determine the prevalence work-family spillovers and to study the relations between them and work environment characteristics among full-time female employees at Tanta University Medical Campus.
Participants And Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried among female employees working in the five faculties that are present at Tanta University Medical Campus. A total of 442 female workers were recruited. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire including personal characteristics, work-related data, and home responsibilities. Job characteristics scales, work to family, and family to work spillovers scales were used to study their correlation.
Results: Participants' mean age was 39.87 ± 10.07 years. Approximately half of participants had moderate degrees of both positive and negative work to family and family to work spillovers. Significant positive correlation was detected between skills discretion and both of positive work to family and family to work spillovers (r = 0.361, r = 0.288, P = 0. 0.001, respectively); similar relations were reported regarding decision authority, coworkers' support, and supervisors' support. The negative work to family and family to work spillovers significantly increased by increasing in work demands (r = 0. 0.315, r = 0.218, P = 0. 0.001, respectively). Significant and negative correlations were found between each of skills discretion and supervisors' support scales and the negative impact of family to work spillover (r = - 0.130; P = 0.006, r = - 0.167; P = 0.001, respectively).
Conclusion: The prevalence of both positive and negative work to family and family to work spillovers was relatively high. Significant relations were detected between work-family spillovers and work environment characteristics regarding skills discretion, work demands, decision authority, coworkers, and supervisors' support.

John is a 12-year-old African-American boy with a Specific Learning Disorder in Reading and Generalized Anxiety Disorder who you are seeing in follow-up at your clinic. Last fall, when John was having an escalation of his anxiety symptoms at school, he enacted the behavior intervention plan (BIP) that had been previously established by his educational team of informing his teacher that he needed to leave the classroom. He then paced the hallway outside of his classroom as a method of coping with the anxiety that he was experiencing.

Background: Community Access to Palliative Care via Interprofessional Teams Improvement (CAPACITI) is a virtual educational program designed to support primary care providers in delivering a palliative approach to care. This study evaluated whether expert-facilitated sessions result in greater self-rated competency than a self-directed format across three CAPACITI modules: Identification and Assessment, Communication, and Ongoing Management.
Methods: We conducted a randomized controlled trial where 566 interprofessional primary care team members were randomized to facilitated or self-directed delivery of the CAPACITI program.
