Abstract |
This chapter reviews some effects of the growth of tourism, including adventure tourism and the numbers of tourists over 50, on rural nursing practice. Tourism contributes to socio-cultural change within a community, and health resources that previously met the needs of the local community may not meet the expectations of growing numbers of tourists. The transient visitor includes both the tourist and the seasonal worker, and has become a feature of rural nursing. Major effects on rural nurses include the increased volume of work, the advanced scope of practice required to meet more complex needs of visitors, and challenges to personal and professional safety. |

Abstract |
Rural nursing in the remote context of South Westland is shaped by factors common to rural nursing practice world-wide including geographical and professional isolation, living and working in a small community, providing health care to rural people and the broad, generalist and advanced scope of nursing practice. Tourism is a major industry in the townships in the proximity of the two accessible glaciers in South Westland. The practice of the nurses in these areas is significantly affected by tourists seeking health care and by providing a health service for the large number of migrant seasonal workers who service the tourist industry. Tourists seek health care from the nurses across the full spectrum of health problems and their expectations of the health care required may exceed the service that can be provided. The nurses are challenged to advance their practice to find the personal and professional resources to provide a safe service. This includes the challenge of cultural safety and personal safety. The tourist industry brings significant numbers of young people as seasonal/temporary workers to the glacier areas. This imposes a youth culture onto the existing rural culture. Nursing practice has expanded to include the specialist practice of youth health care that includes the problems of alcohol and drug misuse, sexual and reproductive health, and youth mental health. This work is drawn from the experience of the nurses working in the glacier communities. The impact of the tourism industry on their rural nursing practice includes the increasing volume of work that challenges the viability of the service, the advanced scope of practice required to meet the health needs of tourists and the seasonal tourist industry workers, and challenges to personal and professional safety. |

Abstract |
All Nurse/Doctor Television programs were observed and questionnaires completed over a period of two weeks, during August 1983, to study the image of Nurses as portrayed on Television, and to compare the findings with those of previous American studies in particular the studies done by Kalisch, B.J. and Kalisch, P.A. ( 1982). A total of 20 programs were viewed, divided into categories and analysed. The main categories were general and personal data, characteristics portrayed by nurses and activities performed as part of the professional role. Results indicated that overall the portrayed image of Nurses is a negative one which continues to enforce the traditional broad stereotypes held of Nurses. Namely the 'angel of mercy', sex object, Doctor's handmaiden or battle axe dragon. This study supports the previous American studies and indicates that the image has not changed a great deal since 1979 |

Abstract |
This thesis describes the journey of a practicing independent nurse practitioner and naturopath through the stories of five clients. The thesis is presented as a narrative and begins with an account of the events in the practitioner's life that lead to the specific study of natural therapies and the development of a cohesive practice using holistic health practices from a nursing perspective. The text essentially describes the process of establishing a private practice combining two disciplines of nursing and naturopathy in New Zealand. The study reveals how a nurse and naturopath's practice is based on the premise that it is crucial to recognise that the personal life and professional life of the nurse inform and influence each other and are always part of the process of care in such a practice. Three healing modalities that are central to the practice are described in detail. The description is informed by theory and research from nursing, the social sciences and the natural sciences. The study reveals the practical value of postmodern nurse theorists, Jean Watson and Margaret Newman to this practice. This study also briefly discusses the concepts from quantum theory, evolutionary theory and psychoneuroirnmunology that are used in the practice. |

Abstract |
The ICN International classification for nursing practice project.Terms used by Community-based Mental Health Nurses to describe their practice.In December 1995 a team of advisors from throughout the Asia and pacific region gathered in Taipei, Republic of China, for the International Council of Nurses (ICN) International Classification of Nursing Practice (ICNP) project. During the week long workshop the early draft Classification architecture was presented and exercises were undertaken to test the relevance and accuracy of selected Terms and associated characteristics from the classification. The team of Consultants, who have been working on the Classification since 1990, identified that the most underdeveloped aspects of the hierarchy were community health and mental health nursing. They encouraged the team of Advisors to conduct research with nurses to add to these areas of the Classification in particular.The purpose of the ICP is to make nursing visible through an internationally accepted language which represents nursing diagnoses, interventions and outcomes. The classification is sponsored by ICN and follows a format similar to the WHO International Classification of Diseases (ICD) which is used extensively throughout the world to statistically record work completed by medical practitioners.The research undertaken at Lakeland Health with five Community-based Mental Health Nurses used the retrospective method of nursing diagnosis validation tool and field exercise method provided by the ICNP Consultant team. These were underpinned by participatory action research methodology. Over four sessions the participants identified six Terms and then field tested each to assess the relevance of that Term in practice. At the weekly sessions the participants shared their reflections on the validity of each Term and discussed other outcomes resulting from their involvement in the research process.The research report outlines the ICNP project and associated literature, explains the research methodology, identifies the resulting Terms and characteristics ready for submission to the ICNP Consultant team and examines outcomes from involvement in the participatory process |

Abstract |
This research utilized a focus group methodology to discover what nurses in clinical practice considered 'caring' care meant for them. Six registered nurses volunteered to participate in the project. They practiced over a wide variety of real settings within the public hospital, which provided both acute and elective surgical and medical services, including an extensive elderly population. Taking these important 'caring' statements, I then explored with the group what factors in their work environment hindered of enhanced their identified 'caring' care in clinical practice as did their overseas counterparts. This study also highlighted the impact the health reforms had on the individual clinical practice at this hospital. The effects of the institutional changes in response to the health reforms were far reaching at both the personal and professional level. Caring is an important concept found in nursing practice. It has been widely documented By nurse scholars, researchers and nurse authors that care is at the core of nursing practice.Some have even referred to care as being the heart of nursing. The finding from the present research indicates the importance nurses place on caring in their day to day encounters with patients. It also demonstrates how nurses express their care and their perceptions of the importance of care has in the clinical practice |
