Title Wellness for all: The possibilities of cultural safety and cultural competence in New Zealand Type Journal Article
Year 2008 Publication Journal of Research in Nursing Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue 2 Pages 125-135
Keywords Cultural safety; Nursing models; Cross-cultural comparison; Maori
Abstract The author contends that responses to cultural diversity in nursing need to consider the theory and practice developments of the profession, whilst also responding to broader social and historical process that prevent marginalised groups from utilising universal health services. A combination of approaches is suggested in this paper to meet these two imperatives. Cultural safety is one indigenous New Zealand nursing approach derived in response to inequalities for Maori, whereas cultural competence is an imported paradigm derived from a multicultural context. Furthermore, research and dialogue are required to examine points of complementarity and tension. This paper offers a beginning for this process.

Title Transforming possibilities of care: Goan migrant motherhood in New Zealand Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal
Volume 20 Issue 1 Pages 87-101
Keywords Pregnancy; Transcultural nursing; Quality of health care; Attitude to health
Abstract This paper reports on a study of the maternity care experiences of women from Goa (India) in Auckland. Multiple research strategies were incorporated into the process to prevent reproduction of deficiency discourses. Interviews were carried out with Goan women who had experiences of migration and motherhood. The findings revealed that as a consequence of motherhood and migration, migrant mothers were able to reclaim and re-invent innovative solutions. Nurses and other health professionals can have a significant role in supporting women and their families undergoing the transition to parenthood in a new country and develop their knowledge and understanding of this dual transition.
