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 (down) 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.

Title Communities of Practice: Supporting innovation to improve public health nurse and school community relationships Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal Held by NZNO Library
Volume 2 Issue 1 Pages (down) 21-26
Keywords
Abstract Public health nursing has been an integral part of health delivery services in New Zealand since the development of a public health service in the early 1900s.

This paper details a qualitative study of a practice innovation undertaken by a group of nurses to reconnect with their school communities. Questions focused on whether the relationship between the public health nurses and their school communities improved as a result of the innovation and what impact, if any, the project had on the public health nurse team itself. Community of practice theory revealed the importance of collaboration and the benefits that can accrue from this approach for both nurse and school communities.

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 (down) 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.

Keywords
Abstract On September 3, 2010, the night nurses at Christchurch Hospital in New Zealand went to work unaware of the personal and professional challenges that were about to unfold in the following hours. This paper, derived from the results of a phenomenological research project, explores the issues that helped and hindered nurses during that night shift and in the three days following the 7.1 earthquake, which struck in the early morning of September 4, around 20km from the hospital. This narrative article allows the world to hear the voices of Christchurch nurses who were providing care in the first 24 hours and during the three days following that major seismic event.
