Title Owning their expertise: Why nurses use 'no suicide contracts' rather than their own assessments Type Journal Article
Year 2002 Publication International Journal of Mental Health Nursing Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11 Issue 4 Pages 214-219
Keywords Interprofessional relations; Psychiatric Nursing; Community health nursing; Qualiltative research; Suicide
Abstract (up) 'No suicide contracts' are a tool commonly used by nurses in community crisis situations. At times this tool is utilised because the clinician believes that it is beneficial. However, there are other occasions when 'No suicide contracts' are introduced in a manner that runs counter to the clinical judgement of the crisis nurse. This paper discusses the results of a qualitative study that addressed the question of why nurses use 'No suicide contracts' in such situations, rather than relying on their own expertise. This analysis suggests that underlying concerns of clinicians can determentally affect decision-making in such circumstances, and recommends that rather than subjugating nursing expertise, underlying issues be addressed directly.

Title 'No suicide contracts' in community crisis situations: A conceptual analysis Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication Journal of Psychiatric & Mental Health Nursing Abbreviated Journal
Volume 10 Issue 2 Pages 199-202
Keywords Mental health; Community health nursing; Psychology; Suicide
Abstract (up) 'No suicide contracts' take the form of a 'guarantee of safety', along with a 'promise' to call specified persons if the suicidal ideation becomes unmanageable for the person concerned. They are commonly used in community crisis situations with suicidal people in New Zealand. This article describes and analyses the use of 'no suicide contracts' in these settings. It is argued that the theoretical base (transactional analysis) of the 'no suicide contract' is likely to be deleterious in the community crisis situation.

Title A clinical audit of a nurse colposcopist: Colposcopy, cytology, histology correlation Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 21 Issue 3 Pages 13-23
Keywords Nurse practitioners; Professional competence; Diagnosis; Advanced nursing practice
Abstract (up) A clinical audit was undertaken to assess the diagnostic skills of the nurse colposcopist measuring colposcopy: histology: cytology correlation. At National Women's Health the first New Zealand nurse colposcopist training programme was developed in 2000. A retrospective audit of the colposcopy clinical records was performed during the nurse's training programme between July 2000 and March 2002. An 82% (82/100) histology: cytology: colposcopy correlation was achieved by the nurse in the third phase of her training programme. The results are comparable with other reported studies involving medical and nurse colposcopists. Expertise in colposcopy examination can be incorporated into the broader role of a Nurse Practitioner working in the area of women's health.
