Abstract |
This research considers the issues raised by the transfer from New Zealand to India of a degree for registered nurses. In the context of globalisation and the continuing migration of nurses, many countries are actively facilitating the transfer of educational programmes from other countries into their own. This transfer brings with it particular challenges for educators establishing and implementing programmes in a new environment and culture. Based on the experience and reflections of one educator involved in such a transfer, this research considers pedagogical issues such as addressing cultural safety in course content and delivery, expectations of teaching and learning styles, as well as the ethical issues raised by transferring a programme to another country in order to facilitate nurses' migration from it. |

Abstract |
Reviews literature relating to the experience of international tertiary students, particularly Chinese students, undertaking nursing education. Reports that international students cite poorer mental and physical health outcomes than domestic students, and that students with English as an additional language (EAL) experience culture shock, frustration and stress. Suggests that tertiary institutions need to supply targeted interventions for international students in language and cultural adaptation to promote positive acculturation. |

Abstract |
This paper outlines some of the special health needs of people from refugee backgrounds who present in the emergency department, and the role of emergency department nurses in improving care for refugee and migrant peoples. Refugees and asylum seekers represent a significant proportion of attendees in emergency departments in Auckland Hospitals. Culture and ethnicity are a major factor to be considered in addressing the health care needs of this population. Other factors such as the physical and psychological sequelae of the refugee experience, health care experience prior to arrival in New Zealand, poverty, language, and the trauma of resettlement also have a major impact on health care seeking behaviours. |

Abstract |
The author's art project “Posthuman Pathology” is a postmodern examination of the resolutely modernist culture of critical care medicine. She uses conceptual art practices in conjunction with the techniques of anti-aesthetics in order to dismantle, open out and critique ideas which are foundational to the culture of critical care. |

Abstract |
The objective of this paper is to establish if there is any documented research and literature evidence that describe what the presenting clinical symptoms of Mai Aitu is, and also to explore an alternative frame-work to assess Pacific Islanders who present to mental health in crisis. As a community mental health nurse in the Crisis Assessment and Treatment Team (CATT), the author reports being confronted almost every day with an increasing number of Pacific Islanders presenting in crisis with symptoms consistent with the well documented signs of psychosis. For instance, symptoms like hallucinations, delusion and paranoid ideation which are also well known for describing schizophrenia. Her concern is that mental health nurses may be compromising their practice, the safety of the Pacific Island population and possibly the credibility of the profession with what appears like a lack of knowledge and awareness regarding the clinical symptoms of some Pacific Island mental illness. In Tonga it is called Avea Avanga, in Fiji it is referred to as Lialia, in Samoa it is known as Mai Aitu. The author notes that the issue becomes apparent when Samoan clients present in crisis with what appears to be psychosis but the fanau believe their love one is not mentally unwell, that he or she is simply suffering a traditional Samoan illness. Therefore they insist he or she be treated at home, instead of through admission to the psychiatric hospital, and also that they be seen by a Samoan healer instead of a psychiatrist. |

Abstract |
In this paper, the author explores the concept of 'professional terrorism'. He exposes discrimination against male nurses as being a form of professional terrorism, primarily as it is enacted through use of language. He presents the concept of horizontal violence as a way to understand why nurses, as a marginalised group, perform oppressive acts towards male nurses, who are similarly oppressed. He outlines the cost of such a culture on nursing practice and presents strategies for change. |
