  Title Process evaluation of an emergency department family violence intervention programme Type
  Year 2004 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Emergency nursing; Evaluation  
  Abstract Family violence is common and there are significant long-term negative health effects from victimisation. Health professionals are now recognised as key providers of family violence intervention. The Hawke's Bay District Health Board HBDHB) launched a Family Violence Intervention Programme in the emergency department in 2002, in accordance with national directives. The Family Violence Intervention Programme includes routine questioning for partner abuse within social history assessments for all women 16 years and over who seek healthcare services. Nurses assumed responsibility for implementing this programme into emergency department practice. Establishing partner abuse screening in practice requires an organisational and attitudinal change. Achieving and sustaining this change can be difficult. Evaluation was considered an essential aspect of the systems approach adopted within the HBDHB Family Violence Intervention Programme to support change. The aim of this study was to identify the enablers and barriers to routine questioning in the emergency department one year after the programme was launched and the strategies to address these barriers. The staff who have responsibility for routinely questioning women were considered well placed to provide this information. The methodology selected was evaluation research using semi-structured interviews. The design included member checking and triangulation of the findings. Eleven emergency department staff members participated in five (two group and three single) interviews. The interviews revealed that routine questioning for partner abuse is difficult in the emergency department setting. Barriers to questioning exist and enablers can eliminate or minimise these. Enablers such as policy and training support routine questioning. Barriers identified included the lack of privacy and time. Participants suggested strategies to overcome these. These barriers, enablers and solutions were either personal or organisational in origin and all had a common theme of safety. An outcome of the study was the development of a model of barriers and enablers to ensure safety when routinely questioning women for partner abuse. This evaluation has utility within the HBDHB as it informs programme progression. However, the evaluation has wider implications. The experiences of the emergency department staff led to the emergence of key themes that may inform the development of comparable programmes. Introducing routine questioning requires a practice change; a multifaceted approach focusing on safety can assist staff to achieve that change.

  Title Casualization of the nursing workforce: A New Zealand perspective on an international phenomenon Type Journal Article
  Year 2001 Publication International Journal of Nursing Practice Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 7 Issue 2 Pages 104-108  
  Keywords Industrial relations; Organisational change; Nursing; Personnel staffing and scheduling  
  Abstract A discussion of the increased use of 'casual' nursing staff (those nurses employed on a casual or 'per diem' basis) is presented. Reference is made to related literature, together with consideration of the implications associated with this trend. This issue has international significance, with the increased use of casual staff being widely recognised. A New Zealand perspective is included, with the provision of nursing care at Christchurch Hospital presented to illustrate certain aspects of the discussion. The impact of changing health-care systems and increased emphasis on efficiency and accountability are identified. This change to workplace practice will inevitably affect nursing; possible future developments are considered.

  Title Aoteaoroa/New Zealand nursing: From eugenics to cultural safety Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Inquiry Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 11 Issue 1 Pages 35-42  
  Keywords Cultural safety; History of nursing; Nursing philosophy  
  Abstract The concept of cultural safety offers a unique approach to nursing practice, based on recognition of the power differentials inherent in any interaction. Clarification of the concept is offered, together with a review of the historical shift in nursing attitudes that has led to the emergence of “cultural safety” as a viable and valued component of nursing practice. The argument is made that cultural safety has allowed for a more reflective, critical understanding of the actions of nursing to develop. This includes recognition that nurses' attitudes and values have inevitably been influenced by social and political forces, and as such are in part reflective of those within the wider community. Comparison between the support given by nurses in the early 1900s to the theory of eugenics and the current acceptance of cultural safety is used to highlight this point. An examination of the literature identifies that ideological and conceptual changes have occurred in the approach of Aoteaoroa/New Zealand nurses to issues with cultural implications for practice. A review of background factors relating to Maori health status and the Treaty of Waitangi is presented as a necessary context to the overall discussion. The discussion concludes with an acknowledgement that while the rhetoric of cultural safety is now part of nursing culture in New Zealand, there is no firm evidence to evaluate its impact in practice. Issues identified as impacting on the ability to assess/research a concept, such as cultural safety, are discussed. For cultural safety to become recognised as a credible (and indispensable) tool, it is necessary to further examine the “end-point” or “outcomes” of the process.

  Year 1999 Publication Accident & Emergency Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 7 Issue 3 Pages 158-163  
  Keywords Emergency nursing; Organisational change  
  Abstract This article examines influences that impact on the work of the Emergency Departments (EDs). EDs are noticing increased attendance of patients with minor or non-urgent conditions. This increase in patient volume, together with on-going fiscal constraints and restructuring, has placed an added strain on the functioning of EDs. New Zealand nurses need to question the role currently given to EDs and identify the issues surrounding the increased use of these departments for primary health care.

  Title Teaching cultural safety in a New Zealand nursing education program Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Journal of Nursing Education Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 44 Issue 5 Pages 201-208  
  Keywords Cultural safety; Nursing; Education; Teaching methods; Feminist critique; Treaty of Waitangi; Maori  
  Abstract This article describes the findings of a research study on the experience of teaching cultural safety. As a teacher of cultural safety, the first author was interested in exploring the experience of teaching the topic with other cultural safety teachers. A qualitative approach situated in a critical theory paradigm was used for the study. The study was informed by the ideas of Foucault and feminist theory. Fourteen women between ages 20 and 60 were interviewed about their experience of teaching cultural safety. Five women were Maori and 9 were Pakeha. Following data analysis, three major themes were identified: that the Treaty of Waitangi provides for an examination of power in cultural safety education; that the broad concept of difference influences the experience of teaching cultural safety; and that the experience of teaching cultural safety has personal, professional, and political dimensions. These dimensions were experienced differently by Maori and Pakeha teachers.
