  Title (down) The gendered role of pastoral care within tertiary education institutions: An autoethnographic reflection during COVID-19 Type Journal Article
  Year 2021 Publication Nursing Praxis in Aotearoa New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 37 Issue 3 Pages 37-40  
  Keywords Pastoral care; Tertiary staff; COVID-19; Academic women  
  Abstract Highlights the exacerbated gendered inequities for academic women caused by the pandemic, including gender pay gap, and women being channelled into administrative, teaching, and pastoral care roles not recognised with career advancement and remuneration compared to research routes facilitated for male colleagues. Uses a collaborative auto-ethnographic approach to reflect on the authors' experiences of emotional labour in supporting nursing students throughout the Covid-19 pandemic and the invisibility of the work within academia. Notes that the patriarchal construction of academia remains present and highly visible to the detriment of many female career trajectories.

  Title (down) The future for nursing education: UKCC review has relevance for New Zealand Type Journal Article
  Year 2000 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 16 Issue 2 Pages 17-24  
  Keywords Nursing; Education; Recruitment and retention; Clinical assessment; Policy  
  Abstract The author reviews the report 'Fitness for Practice' by the United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting (UKCC) noting many areas of relevance for New Zealand educators in outlining possible strategies for nursing education. Discussion of some of the recommendations is put in the context of a strategic review of undergraduate nursing education recently commissioned by the Nursing Council of New Zealand. Issues such as recruitment and access to education; retention; clinical assessment and placements; clinical skill acquisition and partnership are valid concerns for educators here also. Internationally, the author suggests, the commonalties in issues of concern lend validity to the concept of the global village and the necessity for a global perspective in health care workforce planning, including educational preparation.

  Title (down) The feasibility of a nurse practitioner-led primary health care clinic in a school setting: A community needs analysis Type Journal Article
  Year 2001 Publication Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 34 Issue 2 Pages 171-178  
  Keywords Primary health care; Nurse managers; Advanced nursing practice; Community health nursing; School nursing  
  Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of establishing a nurse practitioner-led, family focused, primary health care clinic within a New Zealand primary school environment as a means of addressing the health needs of children and families. A secondary aim was to ascertain whether public health nurses were the most appropriate nurses to lead such a clinic. Utilising a community needs analysis method, data were collected from demographic data, 17 key informant interviews and two focus group interviews. Analysis was exploratory and descriptive. Findings included the identification of a wide range of health issues. These included asthma management and control issues, the need to address poor parenting, and specific problems of the refugee and migrant population. Findings also demonstrated that participant understanding of the role of the public health nurse was less than anticipated and that community expectations were such that for a public health nurse to lead a primary health care clinic it would be likely that further skills would be required. Outcomes from investigating the practicalities of establishing a nurse practitioner-led clinic resulted in the preparation of a community-developed plan that would serve to address the health needs of children and families in the area the study was undertaken. Services that participants identified as being appropriate included health information, health education, health assessment and referral. The authors conclude that the establishment of a nurse practitioner-led, family focused, primary health care clinic in a primary school environment was feasible. While a public health nurse may fulfil the role of the nurse practitioner, it was established that preparation to an advanced level of practice would be required.

  Title (down) The experience of the nurse at triage influences the timing of CPAP intervention Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Accident & Emergency Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 11 Issue 4 Pages 234-238  
  Keywords Emergency nursing; Clinical decision making; Hospitals; Quality of health care  
  Abstract This study used a non-experimental correlational design to research the relationship between the experience of the nurse, with the application of continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) to patients presenting to a metropolitan emergency department with cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (CPO), and to establish what difference, if any, CPAP made to outcomes. A retrospective audit of records was used to extract data on all 54 patients that received CPAP over a 12-month period. The primary outcome measures were off CPAP within two hours, transfer to intensive care unit or cardiac care unit, and secondary outcome measures were length of hospital stay and death. There was a trend towards more experienced nurses attending patients who required immediate treatment or treatment within 10 minutes. These patients were more likely to be recognised at triage as requiring CPAP therapy. The early application of CPAP reduced hospital mortality, length of stay, and the need for intubation and ventilation. Attention needs to be given on how best to educate nurses so that more patients presenting with acute respiratory failure can benefit from nurses' decision-making regarding the commencement of CPAP.
