  Title Career transition : from professional to manager in the health service Type
  Year 1994 Publication Abbreviated Journal Held by NZNO  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for Master of Philosophy in Management Studies and Labour Relations, University of Auckland.

The study addresses the question of career transition from a professional role to a management role within the health service – what changes and adjustments in role content (or tasks), relationships and identity are experienced? What skills, perspectives and values are brought forward from the old role to the new role, and which must be abandoned to accommodate a new identity?

Answers to these questions hold relevance for those planning management development and management recruitment in the health service, and also for those planning career development for health professionals.

  Year 1997 Publication Abbreviated Journal held by NZNO Library and author  
  Volume Proceedings of the National Nursing Informatics Co Issue Pages  
  Keywords Hospitals; Nurse managers; Advanced nursing practice; Nurse-patient relations; Care plans  
  Abstract A paper presenting the findings of a small research project involving a group of self-selected senior nurses of Wellington Hospital to explore the nature of nursing practice in the care and management of hospitalised patients and to formalise the language that would acknowledge its significance in the current effort of hospitals to define patient care pathways. The nature of hospital nursing practice was described in themes of a generic process of nurse-patient care that articulates a distinct specialism of hospital nursing, whatever the hospital department in which nurses hold positions.

  Title Communities of Practice: Supporting innovation to improve public health nurse and school community relationships Type Journal Article
  Year 2011 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal Held by NZNO Library  
  Volume 2 Issue 1 Pages 21-26  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Public health nursing has been an integral part of health delivery services in New Zealand since the development of a public health service in the early 1900s.

This paper details a qualitative study of a practice innovation undertaken by a group of nurses to reconnect with their school communities. Questions focused on whether the relationship between the public health nurses and their school communities improved as a result of the innovation and what impact, if any, the project had on the public health nurse team itself. Community of practice theory revealed the importance of collaboration and the benefits that can accrue from this approach for both nurse and school communities.

  Abstract A submitted for the degree of Master of Health Sciences(Nursing Clinical)at The University of Otago, Christchurch.

This study examined the role of an advanced nurse practitioner in the identification, diagnosis and management of patients referred to an IBS nurse led clinic with symptoms of IBS as their primary problem. Items of interest were identification of the causes of symptoms, the effects of symptoms on quality of life (QOL), coping strategies of the patient, and patient satisfaction with care. These were measured by prospective data on two questionnaires given several months apart. In addition, some basic retrospective data were collected from a database of information on prior patients, to determine that the study subjects were representative of the IBS practice.

  Title The evidence behind more than a decade of policy recommending influenza vaccination for young New Zealanders with long term medical conditions Type Journal Article
  Year 2011 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal Held by NZNO Library  
  Volume 2 Issue 1 Pages 27-32  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This article reviews the recent evidence underpinning the New Zealand Ministry of Health's recommendation to offer free annual influenza vaccination to people aged six months to 64 years who have certain chronic medical conditions (eligible younger people). These results show there is relatively limited research providing evidence underpinning recommendations for influenza vaccination among people aged <65 years. These results show that there is a need to increase nurses' awareness of the rationale behind the New Zealand influenza vaccination policy, that this may in turn increase their willingness to recommend influenza vaccine to more eligible younger people.
