  Title Workplace learning: exploring the context and culture in New Zealand Type Book Whole
  Year 2013 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 234 p.  
  Keywords Workplace learning; Post-registration education; Postgraduate education; Professional development; Learning culture; Critical reflection; Mentoring  
  Abstract Explores the rationale underpinning the development of education programmes within urban district hospitals throughout the country, and ascertains how these workplaces develop education programmes, given that the majority of nurses in New Zealand have identified that they prefer to participate in workplace-based professional development. Cites a clear requirement to foster learning during a nurse's development post-registration, while considering how prepared nurse educators were to fulfil their roles as lifelong learning facilitators and mentors. Utilises the perspective of nurse educators employed in District Health Boards (DHBs) geographically isolated from universities providing post-registration learning.

  Title Attitudinal shifting: A grounded theory of health promotion in coronary care Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal AUT University Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Health promotion; Policy; Professional development; Cardiovascular diseases; Nursing; Nurse-patient relations; Education  
  Abstract Current New Zealand health policy encourages collaborative health promotion in all sectors of health service delivery. The integrated approach to the acute management of coronary heart disease in a coronary care unit, combining medical therapy and lifestyle change, supports clinical health promotion. The aim of this study was to use the grounded theory approach to discover the main concerns of nurses' promoting health in an acute coronary care setting and to explain the processes that nurses used to integrate health promotional activities into their practice. Seventeen registered nurses from three coronary care units within a large metropolitan city in New Zealand were interviewed. Data were constantly compared and analysed using Glaser's emergent approach to grounded theory.The main concern for nurses promoting health within coronary care was ritualistic practice. In this study, ritualistic practice concerns the medically-based protocols, routines, language and technology that drives nursing practice in coronary care. This concern was resolved via the socio-cultural process of attitudinal shifting that occurs over time involving three stages. The three conceptual categories, environmental pressures, practice reality and responsive action are the main components of the theory of attitudinal shifting. In environmental pressures, nurses experience a tension between specialist medically-dominated nursing practice and the generalist nursing role of promoting health. In practice reality, nurses become aware that the individual needs of patients are not being met. This causes role conflict until the nurse observes colleagues who role model possibilities for practice, working with patients to promote health. Responsive action sees the nurse engaging in self-development, also focusing on the nurse-patient relationship, thereby enabling active patient involvement in individual health-promoting decisions. The author suggests that the findings from this research have implications for nursing practice and education. With the increasing specialisation in nursing practice, these findings may be of interest to nurses working in delegated medical roles where the reality of everyday practice precludes nurses from undertaking their essential nursing role. Health care facilities also need to ensure that there are opportunities for the personal and professional development of nursing staff. The place of health promotion within nursing undergraduate curricula needs to be examined, as many nurses found that they were ill prepared for undertaking health promotional activities.

  Title The meaning and importance of service for health professionals Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal ScholarlyCommons@AUT  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Qualiltative research; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract The primary purpose of this study was to explore and identify the meaning and importance of service for health professionals. Those who participated in this study are all registered nurses who each have between 10 and 40 years of clinical nursing and nurse lecturing experience. The participants each wrote two stories, one about the meaning of service and the other about the importance of service. Definitions of service generally suggest organised labour involving an act of help or assistance. Our intent was to understand what constituted service for each of us in the healthcare – and specifically the nursing practice/education – context. A secondary purpose of this qualitative research was guided by participatory and critical theory paradigms. Seven participants and the initiating researcher formed a co-operative inquiry group to undertake the research using a collaborative process. Within this method the leader and the group became co-participants and co-researchers. Nurses and women are identified as marginalised people and by honouring the principles of co-operative inquiry we were empowered through this process. While the initial data was analysed thematically by the lead researcher, the original 19 sub-themes were refined by participants into five themes. The findings of the participants are consistent with overseas studies on emotional labour and sentimental work. The five themes that emerged as the meaning of service are helping, giving, elements of service, acts of doing, and pride in work. This study affirmed that service has much importance to those involved and deepened our understanding of the blend of meanings service expresses.

  Title Emerging discourses shaping high-fidelity simulation as an education platform in Aotearoa New Zealand pre-registration nursing education: A Foucauldian discourse analysis Type Book Whole
  Year 2022 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 311 p.  
  Keywords High-fidelity simulation (HFS); Nursing education; Discourse analysis; Michel Foucault  
  Abstract Asserts that nursing needs to think critically about High-fidelity simulation (HFS) use, and its dominance, in the educational preparation of nurses. Draws on the tenets of postmodernism and Foucauldian discourse analysis methodology to question the discourses and discursive practices that influence the use of HFS as an approach to intentional and unintentional teaching and learning in pre-registration nursing education in NZ. Explores how this shapes nursing students' subjectivity and, ultimately, nursing practice.

  Year 2020 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 198 p.  
  Keywords Nursing education; Aged care; Nurses' perceptions; Stereotypes  
  Abstract Traces the origins of gerontology knowledge among student nurses while considering how people designated as older are perceived by the student nurse, and the effects of functional decline and biomedical discourses on their views of older people when on clinical placement in aged residential care (ARC) facilities. Hghlights the contested domain of gerontology knowledge to generate dialogue about how older age is actually represented in student nurse education, as the current iteration perpetuates stereotypical assumptions about older age.

  Title It's always with you: the experience of being a 1970s hospital-trained general nursing student Type Book Whole
  Year 2019 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 203 p.  
  Keywords General nurse training; Nursing education; Hermeneutic phenomenology; Ontology  
  Abstract Uncovers the significance for nurses who were trained within the 1970s apprenticeship model in NZ hospitals, in their present understanding of themselves as nurses. Confirms that the 1970s heralded the beginning of the end of the apprenticeship system of nurse training, and that literature related to this era of general student nurse training is limited. Uses philosophical hermeneutics to guide interviews with 15 former student nurses who trained within the Auckland Hospital Board School of Nursing, and who reflect 40 years afterward, on how their apprenticeship training influenced the type of nurses they became.

  Title A qualitative exploration of emotional competence and its relevance to nursing relationships Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal Massey Research Online  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nurse-patient relations; Nursing; Education; Students; Professional competence  
  Abstract This qualitative research project explored the experiences of nurse educators who sought to assess aspects, which could be related to facilitation of emotional competence, in nursing students. Focus groups were conducted in three different educational institutions, offering a Bachelor of nursing degree. Each of the participants had a teaching and assessment role within the school of nursing. The contributions of the nurse educators and their interactions were audio taped, transcribed and then later, analysed using thematic and focus group analysis practices. From the analysis of the experiences of the nurse educators, four predominant themes arose which capture the areas of importance to the participants. Student nurses can develop emotional competence by critically reflecting during classroom and clinical experiences. Continuous consideration must be made within each practicing area of nursing, of the environmental and relational challenges which inhibit or facilitate nurse's ability to practice with emotional competence. Educators and practicing nurses, who work alongside students, must uphold the expectation that emotional competence is a requisite ability and provide opportunities to foster emotional growth and skills to resolve conflict within the culture of nursing. A common view shared by the educators was that the profession of nursing needs to have a clear understanding of what constitutes emotional competence. Strategies to realistically incorporate emotional competence into the educational curriculum and competency based assessment opportunities within nursing education are required. Suggestions are presented from which undergraduate nursing education can facilitate development of emotional competence with those students working toward becoming a registered nurse. Emotional competence is suggested as an essential learning outcome in the movement toward transformative nursing education and a collaborative nursing profession.

  Title Nurses as patients: The stories of two woman nurse educators as recipients of nursing care Type
  Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nursing; Education; Preceptorship; Feminist critique  
  Abstract In this research two nurse-patients have engaged in a conversation about their experience of 'being nursed'. The project sets out to address the following questions: How might our experiences as nurses who have been hospitalised be drawn upon to influence positive changes in nursing practice? What effect might our experiences of hospitalisation have on us as nurses and on our nursing practice? The study utilises narrative as inquiry and the method of story telling and auto/biography to tell the stories of Maria (a pseudonym) and the researcher herself. This interpretive research has been informed by the feminist process and sits within a postmodern framework. Maria's stories were audio taped and transcribed before being prepared for analysis using 'core story creation', and the process of 'emplotment' (Emden, 1998b). The author's reflective topical autobiographical narrative was constructed through the processes described by Johnstone (1999). Three distinct qualities emerged from both experiences. The first, 'knowing as nurse-patient' contains the three sub-themes of 'having knowledge', 'expectations of being nursed', and 'knowledge gained'. The second distinct quality 'being nursed' contains the two sub-themes of 'feeling safe and cared for' and 'presencing'; and the third, 'not being nursed', contains the four sub themes 'feeling vulnerable', 'invisibility of nurses', 'getting out' and 'feeling let down'. The sub-theme 'getting out' includes three additional sub themes of 'wanting to get out and not wanting to be there', 'leaving and the need for closure' and 'not wanting to go back'. The author notes that nursing does make a difference to patient care. However, for patients to receive therapeutic care, new graduate nurses must be preceptored/mentored by experienced nurses in supportive programmes. Suggestions for further research have been identified.
