Title Inside knowledge: A qualitative descriptive study of prison nursing in New Zealand Type
Year 2003 Publication Abbreviated Journal University of Auckland Library
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Nursing specialties
Abstract Analysis of the research literature on prison nursing revealed a paucity of research, both in New Zealand and internationally. The aim of this research was to describe the working life of the nurse in a New Zealand prison and provide an understanding of and documentation on prison nursing in New Zealand. A qualitative descriptive study was undertaken to determine what it is like to nurse in a New Zealand prison. Ten nurses working at two public prisons and one private prison took part in the study. Data was collected by the use of semi-structured interviews and analysed thematically into four main themes. The participants' descriptions of their working lives as prison nurses expose the multifaceted nature of this work and the inherent relational dynamics. These dynamics determine the nurse's ability to practise effectively in the prison setting. Findings highlighted many paradoxical situations for nurses when working in this environment. The very aspects of the work that participants described as negative were also identified, in some instances, as challenging and satisfying.

Abstract This thesis reports a mixed methods study, longitudinal in nature, of consenting Age Related Residential Care (ARRC) hospitals in the upper half of the North Island, which was conducted to examine several factors, including AARC hospital efficiency at producing adverse event free days for residents. An interpretativist approach examined what best practice strategies were implemented by the ARRC hospitals that were identified to be most successful at producing adverse event free days for the residents.
