  Title (down) Wellness for all: The possibilities of cultural safety and cultural competence in New Zealand Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Journal of Research in Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue 2 Pages 125-135  
  Keywords Cultural safety; Nursing models; Cross-cultural comparison; Maori  
  Abstract The author contends that responses to cultural diversity in nursing need to consider the theory and practice developments of the profession, whilst also responding to broader social and historical process that prevent marginalised groups from utilising universal health services. A combination of approaches is suggested in this paper to meet these two imperatives. Cultural safety is one indigenous New Zealand nursing approach derived in response to inequalities for Maori, whereas cultural competence is an imported paradigm derived from a multicultural context. Furthermore, research and dialogue are required to examine points of complementarity and tension. This paper offers a beginning for this process.

  Title (down) Weaving the contemporary position of maatauranga Maaori within nursing practice Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Maori; Culture; Nursing models; Nursing; Health status  
  Abstract This thesis explores the customary kaupapa of Matauranga Maori or Maori knowledge, which the author identifies as the appropriate technique to determine how health care should be maintained by and for Maori. The research highlights the need to meld these kaupapa with that of a contemporary Maori viewpoint, to focus more on a deeper enhancement of these kaupapa, and develop an understanding of the social, cultural, educational, political and economic contexts these concepts have on Maori as a people. This research identified six Maori registered women nurses, who shared their experiences regarding Matauranga Maori and its importance to their nursing practice. Over a period of one year, in-depth conversations unfolded and produced data on what Matauranga Maori involves and how the six participants in the study believe it influences their nursing practices. All were currently practicing nurses within various health settings such as psychiatric and comprehensive nursing. From the inception of this study, the focus was to introduce Matauranga Maori as the epistemological framework of choice. The author notes that the findings of this research indicate that a collection of key kaupapa, namely whakapapa, whanaungatanga, te reo Maori, wairuatanga, tuurangawaewae, manaakitanga and rangatiratanga are crucial to the health and wellbeing of Maori as a people. These kaupapa enable Maori to determine and strengthen their worldview, which in turn reflects the concept of being Maori thereby contributing to the health and status of their whanau, hapu and iwi. She goes on to say that the findings support the view that there is a substantial collection of kaupapa, which are inherent in Matauranga Maori as being able to provide a framework for theoretical research. These kaupapa will provide a framework for nursing practice and educational curricula that will develop and maintain nursing standards to meet the needs of Maori.

  Title (down) We talk what we do: An exploration of the value, role and function of storytelling in nursing from one nurse's practice perspective Type
  Year 2001 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nursing; Palliative care; Professional development  
  Abstract The role of storytelling in any society fulfils multiple functions such as maintaining culture, holding history, teaching genealogical lessons, imparting wisdom, entertaining, passing on knowledge. The author suggests that nursing, historically described as a craft with an oral tradition, could be seen to be quietly moving away from the practice of storytelling. Or has it? She asked this question and began to realise that her practice and relationships with colleagues had always been based on stories and storying. To explore this phenomenon, she began to describe her day to day practice in story form, and began to position stories she had previously written. In her work of oncology palliative care nursing within a community setting in New Zealand, the stories proved crucial to her role as an educator, and companion of patients and their families. In this paper she examines how she uses story for her benefit, the patients' benefit, but mainly for the benefit of nursing. She examines from her own perspective, some underlying themes that reinforce the need to continue this ancient tradition and explore the role, value and function of storytelling within nursing.

  Title (down) Waiting in the emergency department – it doesn't have to take all day Type
  Year 2005 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Emergency nursing  
  Abstract This thesis explores the nature of the emergency department environment as it continues to challenge emergency nurses to meet the health needs of an increasingly complex emergency department population. The emergency nurse is also facing conflict and challenge with regard to workplace safety and patient rights. The author suggests that, until recently, very little debate or consideration has been given to the moral dilemmas raised in the ability of emergency department staff to deliver timely and appropriate care in an overcrowded environment. She goes on to say that, in New Zealand, there is no national consistency with regard to the waiting crisis, no national guidelines and no national consensus putting the emergency nurse at risk. This thesis argues the need to acknowledge waiting times as a significant safety issue at a national level as increasing waiting times continue to impact on patient outcomes and nursing practice. It challenges current practice, in particular the role of the emergency nurse and the potential to legitimise expansion of the role to improve the patient experience of waiting in the emergency department.

  Title (down) Wairarapa Primary Health Care Nursing Workforce Survey – 2007: A replication Type
  Year 2008 Publication Abbreviated Journal Otago Polytechnic library. A copy can be obtained by contacting pgnursadmin@tekotago.ac.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Primary health care; Nursing  
  Abstract The introduction of the 2001 New Zealand Primary Health Care Strategy has seen increased emphasis on the development of the national primary health care nursing workforce. National and local nursing workforce development initiatives, in response to the strategy, have seen evolving models of primary health care nursing practice in New Zealand. Research was undertaken in 2007 to review the current position of the Wairarapa primary health care nursing workforce. Quantitative, descriptive data was generated through the application, at a local level, of the 2001 Ministry of Health Primary Health Care and Community Nursing Workforce survey tool. Many of the regional challenges highlighted by survey respondents in 2007 are similar to those identified in the national 2001 survey. These include predominantly low numbers of Maori, Pacific and male primary health care nurses and a fragmented, part-time and aging workforce with many respondents indicating they undertake more than one nursing role in their organisation. Respondents were similarly unsure or did not have clear clinical career pathways available to them, a mechanism by which nurses can advance their clinical practice. Some unique service provision and workforce development issues related to Wairarapa's rural context include: geographical barriers, population spread and the high health needs of its rural population. Some unique regional differences compared to the 2001 data are: lower numbers of nurses studying toward further qualifications and specific barriers to accessing education opportunities that can be linked to living in a rural region. More respondents indicated they could work collaboratively with other nurses and health professionals within their own and other organisations. While many respondents were able to provide insightful examples of specific nursing strategies in their practice targeted towards reducing inequalities for groups at risk, others could not. Enrolled nurses remain part of the Wairarapa primary health care nursing workforce. Ten percent of the respondents were actively practising enrolled nurses with an average of 24 years experience in primary health care nursing. Direction and delegation requirements by registered nurses for this group and national attrition trends with corresponding loss of workforce experience of enrolled nurses highlight an area in the Wairarapa primary health care nursing workforce that requires further consideration. Overall this study contributes to current knowledge by establishing a regional nursing workforce baseline from which to measure and enable focused future workforce development initiatives and research. Regional findings can be used to inform recommendations within the Wairarapa Primary Health Care Nursing Action Plan 2006-11 to enhance the delivery of well-developed primary health care nursing services with benefits for the Wairarapa community.

  Title (down) Vicarious traumatization: Relevance and implications for psychiatric mental health nursing Type
  Year 2001 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Occupational health and safety; Mental health; Psychiatric Nursing; Trauma; Nursing  
  Abstract This research project is concerned with the risk of vicarious traumatisation for psychiatric mental health nurses. Vicarious traumatisation is an occupational hazard that is largely unrecognised and unaddressed in the profession. The paper explores the nature of vicarious traumatisation, and its contemporary conceptualisation in the literature on helping-induced trauma. Findings from the literature search and understanding of the construct of vicarious traumatisation are considered against the essence of psychiatric mental health nursing, the therapeutic relationship and use of self, and the nature of daily practice. After consideration of the potential risk of vicarious traumatisation for the profession it is argued that it is a real risk and is likely to impact on all areas of psychiatric mental health nursing practice. Support for the position that vicarious traumatisation is not well recognised and understood is offered. The paper concludes with recommendations that psychiatric mental health nurses and the profession take serious note of vicarious traumatisation as a risk, and there is an ethical imperative for psychiatric mental health nurses to take measures to inform themselves of and engage in processes of risk management for nurses and clients.
