  Title Linking cultural safety to practice: Issues for student nurses and their teachers Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Vision: A Journal of Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue 13(1) Pages  
  Keywords Students; Cultural safety; Teaching methods; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract Student nurses rely on their teachers, both academic and clinical, to assist them to develop their capacity to practice safely. Yet, in relation to cultural safety, relatively little has been written to assist the integration of theoretical knowledge to the world of practice. This article presents the findings of a small project undertaken by lecturers whose experiences supporting students' learning during clinical placements in Auckland stimulated interest in the students' attempts to use their classroom learning to begin their journey towards culturally safe nursing practice. A qualitative descriptive approach was used to explore the experience of nursing clients from cultures other than one's own and to describe culturally safe practice from the perspective of third year students.

  Title Opening our eyes, shifting our thinking: The process of teaching and learning about reflection in cultural safety education and practice: An evaluation study Type Report
  Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Cultural safety; Nursing; Culture  
  Abstract The purpose of the research was an evaluation of practice exemplars as a reflective process in teaching and learning about cultural safety. Six Maori, two Pacific and five Pakeha students, ranging in age from 30 to 40, took part in the research. The research findings revealed five sub themes: personal safety, power/ powerlessness, reflection, teaching and learning and cultural safety. The presentation, while acknowledging that cultural safety shared some commonalities with culture care theory, highlighted differences between the two. These included that cultural safety was explicit in identifying the inherent power of the nurse in health care relationships; related to the experience of the recipient of nursing care, and extended beyond cultural awareness and sensitivity; provided consumers of nursing services with the power to comment on practices; and contributed to the achievement of positive outcomes and experiences for them. It outlined the characteristics of a culturally safe nurse as a nurse who had undertaken a process of reflection on her/his own cultural identity and who recognised the impact their personal culture had on client care.

  Title Colonisation: The experience of a psychiatric nurse through the lens of reflective autobiography Type
  Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Cultural safety; Colonisation; History; Nursing  
  Abstract The author points to the oppression of colonisation living on in the daily lives of colonised people, and goes on to say that it is vital for nurses to understand the effects of that oppression, as well as the restrictive impacts, and dislocation from one's land and culture to-day. Nurses come from both the descendants of colonisers and the colonised. This thesis is a journey and a quest for insights into the impacts and significances of colonisation by looking at historical and socio-political contexts that have bearing on the health of colonised people who remain mostly powerless and marginalised. It is prompted in response to a cultural safety model which advocates that nurses should become familiar with their own background and history in order to be culturally safe in practice. This reflective autobiographical account is a personal effort and provides the foundation for an exploration of issues during nursing practice encounters, from a colonised ethnic minority perspective. The method was informed by Moustakas research approach and Johnstone's Reflective Topical Autobiographical process. The selection of specific events are deliberate, to make visible some of the many barriers that exist within our health structures as pertinent issues for non-dominant cultures that remain on the margin of our society. Maori issues provide a contrast and became a catalyst for the author while working for kaupapa Maori services. The intention of this thesis is to generate new knowledge about what it means to be a nurse from an ethnic minority working in a kaupapa Maori mental health service, and to encourage other nurses to explore these issues further. Some recommendations are made for nurses in the last chapter.

  Title A migrant family's experience of palliative nursing care Type
  Year 2004 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Palliative care; Cultural safety; Asian peoples; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract The focus of this research was to explore the migrant family's experience in palliative care. In writing this thesis, the author notes that it became evident that cultural safety was a connection that warranted further study in relation to end-of-life nursing care as was illustrated by the intergenerational case study of this migrant family in New Zealand. The use of the case study method of qualitative research enabled the voice of the migrant to be heard and the story of the migrant family's experience to be showcased. The uniqueness of this family's palliative care experience was around the religious and cultural needs and migration as a process of transition from a previous society to a new one. Palliative care was defined by the family approach with strong community support and empowered by culturally safe and appropriate nursing practice. End-of-life illness is a time when cultural perspectives are challenged for patients and their families and religious and cultural practices take on a new priority, regardless of how they have lived life previously. As a migrant nurse living and working in the New Zealand context, the author identifies as an important factor, the nurse-patient interaction as an encounter between two cultural perspectives, the patient's and the nurse as bearer of her own culture. Acknowledging this factor is an important step in developing a culturally safe approach to practice, an approach that proved to be a major ingredient in planning and caring for this patient and his family in end-of-life illness. This study and thesis explores the underpinnings of culturally safe palliative nursing care and identified 'reflexive bracketing' as a useful practice in the process.

  Title Childbirth: A momentous occasion. Muslim women's childbirth experiences Type
  Year 2001 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Childbirth; Cultural safety; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract This thesis explores three Muslim women's experience of childbirth, in a setting surrounded by health professionals who largely have little understanding of their culture. Various forms of narrative such as a letter, excerpts from conversations, and interviews, have been used in presenting this research. The women's stories reveal that giving birth in a cross-cultural setting is stressful. The women had to adjust to an environment which challenged their beliefs and values, in one case with no extended family or cultural support. This stress is long lasting as evidenced in the women's stories. Given the opportunity to tell their story, all the women highlighted both the positive and negative aspects of their birth experiences. This thesis identifies situations that heightened the vulnerability of the women, and highlights the uniqueness of each woman. It concludes by identifying recommendations and reading material for nurses and midwives in education or practice.

  Title If a client is operating from a Samoan world view how can s/he be holistically and appropriately treated under the western medical model? Type
  Year 2001 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Mental health; Psychiatric Nursing; Cultural safety; Cross-cultural comparison; Pacific peoples  
  Abstract This paper is an analysis of the cultural and traditional factors that the author presents as essential considerations in the treatment of Samoan people who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. Just as important to any clinical diagnosis, is the spiritual nature of Samoan culture and traditions, which inform belief systems. A full understanding of these will explain how the traditional beliefs and cultural values of Samoan people have an impact on their perception of mental illness, its causes and cures. The thesis places emphasis on 'ma'i -aitu', the Samoan term for most ailments pertaining to the mind or psyche. The focus is on defining 'ma'i -aitu' as part of a Samoan world view and likewise a description of a similar type of manifestation in the Papalagi (western) context of a psychiatric disorder and how treatment and management is usually undertaken. The issues addressed in this paper aim to highlight the Samoan client's world view from a Samoan perspective of mental illness which then poses the question of how they can be managed holistically and appropriately under the Papalagi medical system. Furthermore, it questions if the traditional belief system of Samoans run deeper than originally thought and can the replacement thereof by a foreign culture be responsible for the increased mental problems in Samoans living in New Zealand? This paper emphasises the importance of integrating the western medical model and Samoan health models, for appropriate mental health service delivery to Samoan people.

  Title Cultural safety and nursing education in Aotearoa and Te Waipounamu Type
  Year 2002 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Cultural safety; Maori; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract The research on which this thesis is based involves both a private narrative and a public narrative, with the story of cultural safety, and the history, theory and the future direction gathered into one qualitative work. The work is divided into three sections. The first is entitled, Ko Wai Matou? The Private Narrative. This section seeks to explore the historical, social, educational, physical, emotional, political and moral influences and ephiphanies which brought about the personality which introduced cultural safety ideas into nursing and midwifery. Early nursing practice is investigated and examples from practice are used to illustrate learning and consolidation of the ideas which led to Cultural Safety Theory. The second section is entitled He Huarahi Hou: A New Pathway. This section explains the progress of the theory and its relationship to education pedagogy and to nursing practice. Comparison between the work of Madeline Leininger and the Transcultural Theory of Nursing and the New Zealand concept of cultural safety is undertaken. The role and application of the Treaty of Waitangi to the theory of cultural safety is explored in this section. The third section, entitled He Whakawhanuitanga: The Public Narrative, looks at the introduction of cultural safety into the nursing education system and its implementation. The public and media reaction to the inclusion of cultural safety in the national examination for nursing registration and the subsequent parliamentary response are noted. The interviews with nursing and midwifery leadership, Maori and pakeha key players in the process and consumer views of the ideas are documented and pertinent excerpts have been included. The work concludes with a discussion on the likely future of cultural safety as a theory and in practice and outlines several issues which represent a challenge to the viability of the concept in nursing and midwifery education. The author notes that the story of cultural safety is a personal story, but also a very public one. It is set in neo-colonial New Zealand, but has implications for indigenous people throughout the world. It is about human samenesses and human differences, but is also a story about all interactions between nurses and patients because all are power laden. Finally, she points out that, although it is about nursing, it is also relevant to all encounters, all exchanges between health care workers and patients.

  Title An exploration of the experiences of Maori nurses in Aotearoa/New Zealand Type
  Year 2004 Publication Abbreviated Journal Otago Polytechnic library. A copy can be obtained by contacting pgnursadmin@tekotago.ac.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Maori; Nursing; Cultural safety; History  
  Abstract The author describes the purpose of her writing as exploring the journeys that Maori have experienced within the nursing profession of Aotearoa/New Zealand. It presents the reader with insight into these journeys by examining a broad range of events and experiences from pre European contact up to contemporary times. The intention of providing these insights is for the reader to be made aware of not only the “uniqueness” that Maori nurses bring to the profession in New Zealand but to give voice to the many untold experiences of Maori nurses. The Nursing Council of New Zealand (NCNZ), numerous Maori and non- Maori academics have long acknowledged the uniqueness of Maori health perspectives and needs. However, the author notes there is limited literature which specifically discusses experiences of Maori consumers of health services and until recently, exploration of the experiences of Maori nurses has been limited. The Ministerial Taskforce of Nursing (1998) identified the paucity of research related to Maori nursing and acknowledges the need for Maori nurses to develop a body of knowledge specifically focused in this area. To this end, the author intended that this work would contribute to the increasing body of knowledge regarding this unique group within the nursing profession of Aotearoa/New Zealand.The discussion includes revisiting the history of nursing in Aotearoa/New Zealand and critiquing the participation of Maori nurses. The experiences of Maori nurses and students from within the education sector is detailed with a particular focus on their experiences of Kawa Whakaruruhau / Cultural safety. Contemporary issues for Maori nurses are critiqued and possible solutions offered along with details of the writer's vision for the future direction of Maori within the wider nursing profession in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
