| Abstract |
The Indigenous Nursing Education Working Group report “Gettin em n keepin em”, was presented at the Australasian Nurse Educators Conference held in Rotorua, New Zealand. The practicalities of the implementation of this report were challenged in light of the experiences of New Zealand nurse educators in implementing the concepts of cultural safety into undergraduate nurse education in New Zealand. The experiences of one Maori family with the Australian health system is given to illustrate the points made. |

| Abstract |
The suitability of human breast milk for the nurturing and development of the human species is proven over hundreds of thousands of years. Human milk is without peer in containing all the nutrients required for the growth and development of the human infant.Over and above the nutrient factors, human milk has significant immunological, anti-infective, and anti-allergy properties that should be foremost in deliberations of neonatal nurses and doctors, before one considers calorie counts and weight gain. Lucas and Cole ( 1990) have shown the terrible consequences of using formula in preterm babies over those fed only human milk, The NZ Cot Death Studies' first year results have shown the significance of breast feeding in reducing the incidence of cot death., giving an oblique reference to the effects of neonatal staff attitude on mothers milk of at risk babies.A ready supply of human breast milk used to be available to neonatal staff from the milk bank. All but a very few of these banks were closed down all over the world due to AIDS phobia rather than by any scientific fact. Sufficient time has gone by for science and nationality to govern the use of human breast milk, and a case is made for the reopening of the Milk Banks |

| Abstract |
It was believed that the Registered Nurse in the position of school nurse had much to contribute with assisting teachers with health education, health promotion; and able to offer personal counseling and assistance with family and personal problems of individual problems. A nurse who approached the researcher on a matter of pay rates was not used in this way. Was this a general trend in secondary schools? What exactly was the work of the school nurse? Was there any commonality between the work of school nurses in secondary schools in the Hamilton area? Were all schools nurses qualified as Registered Nurses? The role of the school nurses therefore appeared to be a suitable topic for a research project |
