Title The language of nursing practice in hospitals Type Conference Article
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 Case management and nurses Type Journal Article
Year 1998 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue 2 Pages 26-35
Keywords Nursing; Care plans
Abstract The report of an exploratory study of current approaches to case management by nurses as requested by the College of Nurses Aotearoa New Zealand. It revealed different interpretations of nurse case management around New Zealand and in the US, UK and Australia. They differed according to the conceptualisation of health service design and delivery in the respective country. Case management in New Zealand in general presented nurse care management roles as an interface between the mangement of health service delivery and the peculiarities of the healthcare people received, holding the potential for achieving tailored, patient-centred care outcomes.

Title Nurse case management: A review of the literature Type
Year 1999 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Nursing; Nursing specialties; Surgery; Care plans
Abstract This literature review is an exploration of nurse case management and it will provide the background for the introduction of a nursing case management model in the acute surgical environment at Western Bay Health. Case management is a collaborative process which assesses, plans, implements, co-ordinates, monitors and evaluates options and services to meet an individual's health needs through communication and available resources to promote quality, cost-effective outcomes (Newell, 1996:.3). In undertaking this review it was the author's intention to include the findings as background to a business case seeking the introduction of a surgical nurse case management model within the surgical service.
