| Abstract |
This research paper provides a description and analysis of literature and research focusing on pre-operative education programmes available internationally and nationally for patients receiving total joint replacements. This discussion differentiates between pre-assessment and pre-operative education to provide an understanding that both aspects are important in there own right. Together pre-assessment and pre-operative education complement each other to provide total care for patients awaiting total joint replacement surgery. One way of alleviating apprehension experienced by the patient about their surgery is by providing appropriate joint replacement education programmes that meet their needs. This type of programme is a form of empowerment which provides patients with appropriate and relevant information. This allows the patient to be actively involved in their own care and enable them to make informed decisions. The importance of education, information and communication; anxiety and pain; family and peer support; mobility and insecurity is a common thread in the literature where patients describe their experiences and concerns following a total joint replacement. These concepts are discussed and related to why pre-operative education programmes are recommended to help alleviate patients concerns and are important in providing a total multidisciplinary approach to care. |

| Abstract |
The nursing education environment is complex and varied, and is affected by both the education and health systems. This report backgrounds the funding systems that underwrite the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) processes. The two primary objectives that have guided this collation are: to stimulate awareness and discussion of the issues around funding nursing education in New Zealand; and to promote understanding of the complex funding structures currently in place in New Zealand by students, nurses, nurse educators and nurse managers. |

| Abstract |
There needs to be more practice-focused research about how cultural safety is experienced by the recipient of care and how it is applied in nursing and healthcare delivery. [...]sociology, science, and knowledge developed from within northern hemisphere societies. Because the ground is different for knowledge arising from the New Zealand experience, theorising cultural safety must be different too. |

As nurses and students we all have our own 'its', which get out of perspective and cause us anxiety. By sharing this blog with you, I hope I help you with your 'it'. When all else fails try blogging about your 'it', and use reflection as a tool to grow yourself, instigate change and promote yourself as the evidence-based, caring nurse that you are. |

| Abstract |
This study describes the impact of a sudden, traumatic natural disaster on a bachelor of nursing programme, and the capacity and processes required to minimise disruption to programme delivery and student learning. This descriptive case study, undertaken across 2011-2012, collected data through interviews, a survey and artefact collection. Six key themes emerged from the inductive and descriptive statistical analyses: context; communication; leadership and followership; decision making; the need to balance shifting priorities around professional responsibilities and personal imperatives; and taking action and action plans. The conclusions reached emphasise safety as the first priority, encourage personal risk mitigation, and emphasise the importance of ongoing support and flexibility for all staff and students as well as the need for clear communication and decision-making. What is perhaps most important to take from this experience is that a plan does not, by itself, equal preparedness; every institution must look to its own context, consider its own priorities, and formulate its own approach to preparedness. |
