  Title The successful design and delivery of rural health services: The meaning of success Type Report
  Year 2002 Publication Abbreviated Journal Accessible from www.moh.govt.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Rural health services; Management; Primary health care  
  Abstract A report on the analysis of data from an in-depth survey designed by Sue Dawson, previously Rural Health Researcher in the Centre for Rural Health, and follow-up interviews. The study purpose was to construct a definition of ?successful design and delivery of rural health services? as a step towards a measurement tool. Participants were grouped as general practitioners (GPs), nurses and community representatives. A format for a participatory approach to evaluation of rural health services is derived from the criteria of success identified, with its relevance for the implementation of the new Government primary health care strategy explicit. This format provided the basis for a subsequent evaluation case study undertaken in a small rural forestry township by the Centre for Rural Health.

  Title Routine and rigidity: Barriers to insulin initiation in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Type Journal Article
  Year 2010 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal NZNO Library  
  Volume 1 Issue 1 Pages 19-22  
  Keywords Medication compliance; Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent; Primary health care  
  Abstract It has been shown that intensive management of diabetes with type 2 diabetes is effective and has led to wider use of insulin. The conversion of patients from oral medication to insulin is usually managed in primary care. The study discussed here aimed to explore how patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) perceived insulin. The study was conducted in 2009 in an urban general practice in a large town in New Zealand with more than 300 patients with type 2 diabetes. A qualitative study was conducted with face-to-face interviews with 13 participants. The question focused on insulin initiation, lifestyle and routine. The transcribed responses were subject to thematic anaylsis. Interviews showed participants felt restricted by the prospect and eventuality of the routine and restrictions of being on insulin. Results show there needs to be a greater emphasis on the disease being progressive. This study provides the ground work for developing resources that will benefit patients with T2DM.

  Title Staff support and quality of care provided by palliative care nurses: A systematic literature review Type Journal Article
  Year 2013 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal Available through NZNO library  
  Volume 4 Issue 1 Pages 25-32  
  Keywords Hospice and palliative nursing; Systematic review; Staff support; Quality of health care  
  Abstract There is a considerable body of literature discussing the stressors experienced by nurses and other health professionals when caring for those who are terminally ill and dying. Also, a number of articles offer suggestions, including the views of staff, as to what type of professional and organisational support is required when working in this often demanding specialty. There are, however, very few reports of assessment of the effectiveness of such supportive interventions and in particular, the impact of such support on the quality of patient care. This literature review examines any reported relationships between the quality of nursing provided by palliative care nurses and the staff support received by those nurses.
