Title Emerging discourses shaping high-fidelity simulation as an education platform in Aotearoa New Zealand pre-registration nursing education: A Foucauldian discourse analysis Type Book Whole
Year 2022 Publication (up) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 311 p.

Abstract Asserts that nursing needs to think critically about High-fidelity simulation (HFS) use, and its dominance, in the educational preparation of nurses. Draws on the tenets of postmodernism and Foucauldian discourse analysis methodology to question the discourses and discursive practices that influence the use of HFS as an approach to intentional and unintentional teaching and learning in pre-registration nursing education in NZ. Explores how this shapes nursing students' subjectivity and, ultimately, nursing practice.

Title A time for international standards? Comparing the Emergency Nurse Practitioner role in the UK, Australia and New Zealand Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication (up) Accident & Emergency Nursing Abbreviated Journal
Volume 15 Issue 4 Pages 210-216
Keywords Emergency nursing; Cross-cultural comparison; Nursing; Education
Abstract The aim of this paper is to compare the Emergency Nurse Practitioner role in the UK, Australia and New Zealand. Whilst geographically distant, the role of the Emergency Nurse Practitioner within these three countries shares fundamental similarities, causing the researchers to question, is this a time to implement international standards for the role? The Emergency Nurse Practitioner role in all three countries is gradually establishing itself, yet there are shared concerns over how the role is regulated and deficits in standardisation of scope of practice and educational level. Together these issues generate confusion over what the role embodies. The authors suggest that one method of demystifying the Emergency Nurse Practitioner role would be to progress towards international standards for regulation, education and core components of practice.

Title The meaning of effective education for critical care nursing practice: A thematic analysis Type Journal Article
Year 2004 Publication (up) Australian Critical Care Abbreviated Journal
Volume 17 Issue 3 Pages 114, 116-2
Keywords Hospitals; Nursing; Education; Nursing specialties
Abstract Using thematic analysis, this study explored the phenomenon of effective education for critical care nursing practice by asking: What does effective education for critical care nursing practice mean to nurses currently practising in the specialty? Eighty eight critical care nurses from the South Island provided written descriptions of what effective education for critical care nursing practice meant to them. Descriptive statements were analysed to reveal constituents, themes and essences of meaning. Four core themes of personal quality, practice quality, the learning process and learning needs emerged. Appropriateness or relevance for individual learning needs is further identified as an essential theme within the meaning of effective education for critical care nursing practice. Shared experiences of the phenomenon are made explicit and discussed with reference to education and practice development in the specialty. The study results lend support to education that focuses on individual learning needs, and identifies work based learning as a potential strategy for learning and practice development in critical care nursing.

Title Competency and capability: Imperative for nurse practitioner education Type Journal Article
Year 2006 Publication (up) Australian Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal The author-version of article, available online from Queensland University of Technology ePrints arc
Volume 24 Issue 1 Pages 8-14
Keywords Nursing; Education; Nurse practitioners; Curriculum
Abstract The objective of this study was to conduct research to inform the development of standards for nurse practitioner education in Australia and New Zealand and to contribute to the international debate on nurse practitioner practice. The research was conducted in all states of Australia where the nurse practitioner is authorised, and in New Zealand. The research was informed by multiple data sources including nurse practitioner programme curricula documents from relevant universities in Australia and New Zealand, interviews with academic convenors of these programmes and interviews with nurse practitioners. Findings include support for masters level of education as preparation for the nurse practitioner. These programs need to have a strong clinical learning component and in-depth education for the sciences of specialty practice. Additionally an important aspect of education for the nurse practitioner is the centrality of student directed and flexible learning models. This approach is well supported by the literature on capability.

Title International perspective: The development of the advanced role of rural nurses in New Zealand Type Journal Article
Year 1999 Publication (up) Australian Journal of Rural Health Abbreviated Journal
Volume 7 Issue 4 Pages 253-257
Keywords Nursing; Education; Rural nursing; Advanced nursing practice
Abstract This paper offers an insight into the development of the advanced role of rural nursing practice in New Zealand. The concept of advanced nursing practice is discussed within the context of the interdisciplinary healthcare team. It is argued that as nurses take on advanced practice, it is essential they receive appropriate clinical and theoretical skills to ensure they are in a position to provide competent and clinically safe, effective health care in an ethical, efficient manner. A description of a survey, undertaken by the author, studying rural nurses' skills provides the recommendation for the development of an appropriate postgraduate course at Masters level, designed specifically for primary rural nurses for the advanced role.

Title 'Never mind the quality, feel the width': The nonsense of 'quality', 'excellence', and 'audit' in education, health and research Type Journal Article
Year 2008 Publication (up) Collegian: Journal of the Royal College of Nursing Australia Abbreviated Journal
Volume 15 Issue 1 Pages 35-41
Keywords Accountability; Quality assurance; Organisational change; Nursing research; Nursing; Education
Abstract The author contends that health care and education have been colonised by 'The Audit Society' and managerialism. It is argued that under the benign guise of 'improving quality' and 'ensuring value for money' a more Orwellian purpose operates. Academics had to be transformed into a workforce of 'docile bodies', willing to scrutinise and survey themselves and their 'performance' as outcome deliverers and disciples of the new 'Qualispeak'. This paper critiques the current obsession with audit and performativity, and the constant and often pointless 'change' that is held to be so self-evidently 'a good thing' and identifies policy discussion as a linguistic wasteland.

Title Mobile computing in a New Zealand Bachelor of nursing programme Type Book Chapter
Year 2006 Publication (up) Consumer-Centered Computer-Supported Care for Healthy People. Studies in health technology and informatics, 122 (pp. 605-608) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Technology; Curriculum; Nursing; Education; Professional competence
Abstract Mobile computing is rapidly becoming a reality in New Zealand health care settings. Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) are the most frequently used of these mobile technologies, giving nurses access to clinical learning resources, including drug references, medical encyclopaedias and diagnostic information. The implementation of mobile computing at Waikato Institute of Technology (Wintec) will ensure graduates of our Bachelor of Nursing Programme are able to meet health care service demands for knowledge in contemporary information technologies as well as the information technology requirements defined by the Nursing Council of New Zealand and the Health Practitioners Competency Assurance Act 2003 for registration as a nurse in New Zealand. This paper presents strategies for the implementation of mobile computing as a core element of the curriculum for the Bachelor of Nursing Programme at Wintec in Hamilton.

Title Breaking-in bodies: Teaching, nursing, initiations or what's love got to do with it? Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication (up) Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal
Volume 18 Issue 3 Pages 292-299
Keywords Nursing; Education; Psychology; Nurse-patient relations; Students
Abstract This paper discusses how students become able to work with sick patients for whom they may feel disgust or discomfort. It is a sustained engagement with the literature on abjection and disgust and is not the outcome of evaluation research. It considers the role of problem-based learning pedagogy in facilitating students' negotiation of their own discomfort and horror, and describes experiences which enable them to approach abject patients with more comfort and less disgust. The paper argues the importance of creating spaces where students can explore issues which are distressing and disturbing so that they will feel able to remain in nursing.
