  Title (up) “It could have just as easily been me”: Nurses working in mental health services who have experienced mental illness Type
  Year 2001 Publication Abbreviated Journal NZNO Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nursing; Mental health; Occupational health and safety  
  Abstract This research explores the issues and experiences of mental health nurses who experience or have experienced mental illness. This project was prompted by the author's concern for colleagues and friends in this situation. The research topic was approached using a mix of critical ethnography and action research principles. Five mental health nurses who all work for the same district health board were interviewed about their experiences of being mental health professionals with mental illness and the issues that arose from this. The themes that emerged from this research are: the reactions of nurse colleagues, the effects on participants' own mental health treatment, employer responses, professional experiences and issues and strategies for coping. Discussion and recommendations focus on the need for improvements to the responses that mental health nurses with experience of mental illness encounter in their workplace. Recommendations from this research encompass suggestions for both individual and organisational education, action and change.

Author Hardcastle, J. openurl 
  Title (up) 'Back to the bedside': Graduate level education in critical care Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Nurse Education in Practice Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 8 Issue 1 Pages 46-53  
  Keywords Nursing specialties; Nursing; Education; Curriculum  
  Abstract This paper explores the relationships within teaching, learning and practice development in critical care nursing and questions the popular assumption that 'post graduate (Master's level) education fits all'. The need for critical care nurses to apply advanced knowledge and technical skills to complex and dynamic practice situations necessitates the development of critical thinking and a problem-solving approach to clinical practice that can be fostered through education and experience. Discussion focuses on the successful development and implementation of graduate level education for critical care nurses in the South Island of New Zealand and how this development is challenging existing approaches to the provision and evaluation of formal critical care education in New Zealand.

Author Darbyshire, P. openurl 
  Title (up) '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 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 (up) A description of the needs of people with cancer and support people Type
  Year 1995 Publication Abbreviated Journal Author, Wellington Division of the Cancer Society  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The report of a research project commissioned by the Wellington Division of the New Zealand Cancer Society to provide a foundation for policy to give direction to development of its services. The research approach and methodology had an ecological theory foundation. It involved a survey and in-depth interviews with people with cancer and those caring for them to understand their experience. Needs were identified from the data and presented according to three distinct phases in the course of living with cancer. People moved from the shock of diagnosis, through the time of treatment when usual living was suspended and focus narrowed on the intensive fight against the disease, then into a very different phase of on-going ?wait-and-see? time requiring a new way of living with uncertainty for both patient and carers. The last phase was where most of the unmet needs lay. Recommendations were made for services to provide a continuous caring relationship for patients and carers with a knowledgeable person from the point of diagnosis.
