Title Courage as integral to advancing nursing practice Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 23 Issue 2 Pages 43-55
Keywords Ethics; Advanced nursing practice
Abstract This paper focuses on the illumination of courage in nursing. The authors suggest it is a fundamental component of nursing, yet it is seldom mentioned or recognised in the literature, or supported in practice. Data from a hermeneutic analysis of nurses' practice stories is integrated with literature to assist deeper understanding of the meaning of courage in contemporary nursing practice. The purpose is to make visible a phenomenon that needs to be actively fostered if nursing is to effectively contribute to an improved health service.

Title Implementing a prescribing practicum within a Master's degree in advanced nursing practice Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 23 Issue 2 Pages 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.

Title A clinical audit of a nurse colposcopist: Colposcopy, cytology, histology correlation Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 21 Issue 3 Pages 13-23
Keywords Nurse practitioners; Professional competence; Diagnosis; Advanced nursing practice
Abstract A clinical audit was undertaken to assess the diagnostic skills of the nurse colposcopist measuring colposcopy: histology: cytology correlation. At National Women's Health the first New Zealand nurse colposcopist training programme was developed in 2000. A retrospective audit of the colposcopy clinical records was performed during the nurse's training programme between July 2000 and March 2002. An 82% (82/100) histology: cytology: colposcopy correlation was achieved by the nurse in the third phase of her training programme. The results are comparable with other reported studies involving medical and nurse colposcopists. Expertise in colposcopy examination can be incorporated into the broader role of a Nurse Practitioner working in the area of women's health.

Title Advanced nursing practice through postgraduate education, part one Type Journal Article
Year 2004 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 20 Issue 2 Pages 46-55
Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Education; Professional development; Research
Abstract In New Zealand the clinically focused postgraduate papers and programmes, available through universities and polytechnics, are evaluated from an educational perspective but little evaluation of the implications for practice has been undertaken. This paper is Part One of a report on a study that sought to illuminate the impact of clinically focused postgraduate education on advancing nursing practice. Hermeneutic methodology provided a framework for analysing both the perspectives of nurses who had undergone such education and those who had directly employed and worked alongside these nurses. Emerging themes are described here. In a second article the findings will be discussed in relation to literature. Constraining factors will be identified and strategies designed to maximise the benefits of education for advancing nursing practice will be recommended.

Title Advancing nursing practice through postgraduate education, part two Type Journal Article
Year 2004 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 20 Issue 3 Pages 21-30
Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Professional development; Education; Research
Abstract This paper continues presentation of the findings of a North Island based research project that explored the impact of clinically focused postgraduate education on advancing nursing practice. Like their international counterparts, increasing numbers of New Zealand nurses are enrolling in advanced practice programmes. Yet, despite international evidence supporting the usefulness of Masters level preparation for advancing clinical practice, questions about the need for such development persist. This paper argues that postgraduate education contributes to the development of courage and that this, in turn, is essential to overcoming the barriers that currently constrain the advancement of nursing practice.

Title Advanced nursing practice: Time and meaning Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 19 Issue 3 Pages 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 Advancing nursing practice in New Zealand: A place for caring as a moral imperative Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 19 Issue 3 Pages 13-21
Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Ethics; Professional competence; Nurse-patient relations
Abstract The author argues that the framework of competencies required for advanced nursing practice should include a moral dimension in order to take account of relational as well as functional competencies. There is no recognition of the relational competencies required to practice caring as a moral imperative. The Nursing Council of New Zealand expects that nurses will practise 'in accord with values and moral principles'. The paper explores the history of two nursing discourses, that which sees nursing as a functional occupation and that which emphasises the relationship between nurse and patient. A practice exemplar is used to demonstrate positive outcomes from advanced relational competencies.

Title The myth of medical liability for nursing practice Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 19 Issue 4-12 Pages 4-12
Keywords Interprofessional relations; Law and legislation; Nurse practitioners; Advanced nursing practice
Abstract This article explores the complex nature of liability in the case of standing orders and vicarious liability by employers, and also when nurses and doctors are in management roles. The authors address misconceptions about medico-legal responsibility for nursing practice with the advent of nurse prescribers and nurse practitioners. They refer to the submission made by the College of Nurses Aotearoa (NZ) on the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (2003), and discuss practice liability and nurse-physician collaboration.
