  Title Multiprofessional learning: The attitudes of medical, nursing and pharmacy students to shared learning Type Journal Article
  Year 2001 Publication Medical Education Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 35 Issue 9 Pages 876-883  
  Keywords Nursing; Education; Students; Interprofessional relations  
  Abstract This study has sought to quantify the attitudes of first-year medical, nursing and pharmacy students' towards interprofessional learning, at course commencement. The Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS) (University of Liverpool, Department of Health Care Education), was administered to first-year medical, nursing and pharmacy students at the University of Auckland. Differences between the three groups were analysed. The majority of students reported positive attitudes towards shared learning. The benefits of shared learning, including the acquisition of teamworking skills, were seen to be beneficial to patient care and likely to enhance professional working relationships. However professional groups differed: nursing and pharmacy students indicated more strongly that an outcome of learning together would be more effective teamworking. Medical students were the least sure of their professional role, and considered that they required the acquisition of more knowledge and skills than nursing or pharmacy students.

  Title Critical case study: Supporting the new graduate entering specialist psychiatric mental health nursing practice Type
  Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; Clinical supervision; Students; Preceptorship  
  Abstract This critical case study was undertaken for the purposes of illuminating information relating to new graduate nurses' experiences in their first clinical placement, in order to consider ways an established entry to practice programme can better support and enhance the students' transition from student nurse to staff nurse within psychiatric mental health nursing practice. Seven current students of the programme participated in the research. This provided the researcher with a variety of challenges related to her dual role as researcher and programme coordinator. Data was collected through the use of discussion groups, with participants and researcher jointly identifying the themes that were explored. These themes related to preceptorship and support, socialisation of the new graduate and risk management. The research has provided rich data that has already, and will continue to be used to inform future developments within both the educational and clinical components of the programme. The research has also provided opportunities for personal and professional growth through the sharing of experiences, and working together to identify emancipatory action which has in turn lead to transformation.

  Title An exploration of how nurse education practices may influence nursing students' perception of working in aged care as a registered nurse: A Foucauldian discourse analysis Type Journal Article
  Year 2022 Publication Nursing Praxis in Aotearoa New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 38 Issue 2 Pages 23-31  
  Keywords Nursing education; Nursing students; Aged care; Employment  
  Abstract Argues that undergraduate nurse education contributes to the problem of too few nurses choosing to work in aged care, by constructing working in aged care as a lower-status or less valuable area of work than other health-care areas. Examines the issue using Foucauldian discourse analysis to explore the dominant discourses being deployed in relation to clinical experience in aged care. Collects data through semi-structured interviews with 10 senior academic staff members from NZ tertiary institutions. Analyses interview data to reveal how a 'nurse education discourse' and a 'work-ready discourse' were shaping perceptions of aged care as a clinical experience in a variety of ways. Suggests that how and why aged care is utilised as a space to learn a range of nursing skills has the unintended effect of devaluing and discouraging employment in aged care settings.

  Title What is so hard about a drug calculation? An exploration into my experience of teaching the competency of drug dosage calculation to the undergraduate nursing student Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal Otago Polytechnic library. A copy can be obtained by contacting pgnursadmin@tekotago.ac.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Drug administration; Nursing; Education; Students  
  Abstract This dissertation was written to promote the author's understanding of the development of drug calculation competency in the undergraduate student nurse. It explores and critiques the literature surrounding the topic and examines the differing teaching methods that are currently used to promote this competency. Findings from the literature were compared to her experience of teaching drug dosage calculation competency to second year undergraduate nursing degree students. This dissertation suggests that drug dosage calculation may be an ongoing problem for nursing students not only during their course of study but also post registration. It appears that age and educational background may be factors in determining whether or not the student will truly master the concept. Although highly debated, it does appear that the use of a calculator assisted the nursing students within the author's class with their arithmetic operation. However, problems associated with conceptual understanding remain notable. The recommendations from this dissertation include the use of varied methods of instruction, integration of both the theory and practical components and the possible use of the dimensional analysis method in the teaching of drug dosage calculation. The author suggests that further research is required both locally within the School of Nursing where she is employed and nationally to fully examine the extent of this issue. Research which is not only focused on the student's calculation ability and its progression over the course of their study but which also allows the School to collate data on age, educational background, culture and learning style would allow lecturers to gain greater insight into student competency, progress and learning needs. She goes on to say that the continued ongoing exploration of her own practice utilising action research is also required as this would assist her in meeting the needs of students and lead to an overall improvement in her practice.
