  Year 2003 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 19 Issue 3 Pages (down) 29-39  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Nurse practitioners; Professional development; History of nursing  
  Abstract The particular, contemporary meanings ascribed to “advanced nursing practice” in New Zealand have been debated and delineated in the 1990s, culminating in the launch of the nurse practitioner role at a conference sponsored by the Ministry of Health and the Nursing Council of New Zealand in August, 2001. Drawing on archival materials, documents, other texts and voices, this article explores the evolution of connotations and meanings of the word “advanced” as applied to nursing in New Zealand. The focus is on clinical practice, research, teaching, consulting, higher education, and advancement of the profession. Historical aspects of advancement in New Zealand nursing are examined, including registration, unsupervised practice, technical specialisation, and career development.

  Title Implementing a prescribing practicum within a Master's degree in advanced nursing practice Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 23 Issue 2 Pages (down) 27-42  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Education; Nurse practitioners; Prescribing; Teaching methods  
  Abstract This article reports the implementation of a collaborative project undertaken to monitor and improve the effectiveness of the prescribing practicum papers delivered within two Master's degree programmes in advanced nursing practice. The recent introduction of Nurse Practitioner registration in New Zealand has resulted in the development of a number of Master's degree programmes in which students can complete a Nursing Council of New Zealand approved programme for prescribing. For the study, a developmental action research approach was used. Data were collected through interviews with practicum students, their medical supervisors and academic staff. Formative findings were progressively used to refine delivery of the practicum papers and a thematic analysis of summative findings identified areas for further improvement. The findings suggest that the processes being implemented are developing well. The researchers recommend that further education is required to clearly differentiate medical and advanced nursing roles. They recommend that greater attention needs to be paid to the preparation of medical supervisors and, most significantly, revision of funding is required to more equitably support the ongoing development of nurses for advanced practice roles.

Author Nicol, M.J. openurl 
  Title Genetics and nursing: Preparing for future health care development Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 19 Issue 2 Pages (down) 27-40  
  Keywords Nursing; Education  
  Abstract The author discusses the impact of 'new genetic knowledge' on society and how molecular and clinical genetics are having an increasing influence on routine health care. Increasingly, nurses will be exposed to this new genetic knowledge and challenged to integrate it into their clinical practice in order to ensure that patients and families receive the best health care available. The paper reports the percentage of undergraduate nursing curricula devoted to teaching about genetics and considers how the fundamental principles of molecular genetics and the clinically relevant areas of genetics can be incorporated into pre- or post-registration education.
