  Title Courage as integral to advancing nursing practice Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 23 Issue 2 Pages 43-55  
  Keywords Ethics; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract This paper focuses on the illumination of courage in nursing. The authors suggest it is a fundamental component of nursing, yet it is seldom mentioned or recognised in the literature, or supported in practice. Data from a hermeneutic analysis of nurses' practice stories is integrated with literature to assist deeper understanding of the meaning of courage in contemporary nursing practice. The purpose is to make visible a phenomenon that needs to be actively fostered if nursing is to effectively contribute to an improved health service.

  Title Implementing a prescribing practicum within a Master's degree in advanced nursing practice Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 23 Issue 2 Pages 27-42  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Education; Nurse practitioners; Prescribing; Teaching methods  
  Abstract This article reports the implementation of a collaborative project undertaken to monitor and improve the effectiveness of the prescribing practicum papers delivered within two Master's degree programmes in advanced nursing practice. The recent introduction of Nurse Practitioner registration in New Zealand has resulted in the development of a number of Master's degree programmes in which students can complete a Nursing Council of New Zealand approved programme for prescribing. For the study, a developmental action research approach was used. Data were collected through interviews with practicum students, their medical supervisors and academic staff. Formative findings were progressively used to refine delivery of the practicum papers and a thematic analysis of summative findings identified areas for further improvement. The findings suggest that the processes being implemented are developing well. The researchers recommend that further education is required to clearly differentiate medical and advanced nursing roles. They recommend that greater attention needs to be paid to the preparation of medical supervisors and, most significantly, revision of funding is required to more equitably support the ongoing development of nurses for advanced practice roles.

  Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal NZNO theses and research material webpage  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Prescription authority; Nursing; Education; Students; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract This report presents the findings and recommendations derived from a collaborative action research pilot project undertaken alongside the implementation of two nurse prescribing practicum courses. The students, teachers and supervisors participating in year long Masters' level prescribing practica at Auckland University of Technology (AUT) and Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT) were interviewed about their perceptions, concerns and actions relating the first time implementation of their respective practicum papers. Research findings suggest that the practicum implementation has been successful overall, however there is a need to refine delivery, and to review current funding arrangements.

  Title Advanced nursing practice through postgraduate education, part one Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 20 Issue 2 Pages 46-55  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Education; Professional development; Research  
  Abstract In New Zealand the clinically focused postgraduate papers and programmes, available through universities and polytechnics, are evaluated from an educational perspective but little evaluation of the implications for practice has been undertaken. This paper is Part One of a report on a study that sought to illuminate the impact of clinically focused postgraduate education on advancing nursing practice. Hermeneutic methodology provided a framework for analysing both the perspectives of nurses who had undergone such education and those who had directly employed and worked alongside these nurses. Emerging themes are described here. In a second article the findings will be discussed in relation to literature. Constraining factors will be identified and strategies designed to maximise the benefits of education for advancing nursing practice will be recommended.

  Title Advancing nursing practice through postgraduate education, part two Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 20 Issue 3 Pages 21-30  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Professional development; Education; Research  
  Abstract This paper continues presentation of the findings of a North Island based research project that explored the impact of clinically focused postgraduate education on advancing nursing practice. Like their international counterparts, increasing numbers of New Zealand nurses are enrolling in advanced practice programmes. Yet, despite international evidence supporting the usefulness of Masters level preparation for advancing clinical practice, questions about the need for such development persist. This paper argues that postgraduate education contributes to the development of courage and that this, in turn, is essential to overcoming the barriers that currently constrain the advancement of nursing practice.

  Title Uncovering the meaning of 'being safe' in practice Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 14 Issue 2 Pages 196-204  
  Keywords Childbirth; Patient safety; Advanced nursing practice; Midwifery  
  Abstract This paper moves away from the prevalent discourse of competence to consider the meaning of the experience of 'being safe' within the context of childbirth. It offers findings from a doctoral study, informed by the philosophies of Heidegger and Gadamer. Following ethical approval, the data was collected in New Zealand by tape-recorded interviews of 5 midwives, 4 obstetricians, 1 general practitioner and 10 women. The method was informed by van Manen. The findings reveal that in seeking the meaning of being safe one needs to be aware that the unsafety may already be present in the situation. Practitioners may be able to do little to rectify the unsafeness. There is, however, a spirit of safe practice, explicated in this paper, that is likely to make practice as safe as it can possibly be. Wise practitioners are ever mindful that a situation may be or become unsafe, and are always aware of their own limitations.

  Title International perspective: The development of the advanced role of rural nurses in New Zealand Type Journal Article
  Year 1999 Publication Australian Journal of Rural Health Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 7 Issue 4 Pages 253-257  
  Keywords Nursing; Education; Rural nursing; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract This paper offers an insight into the development of the advanced role of rural nursing practice in New Zealand. The concept of advanced nursing practice is discussed within the context of the interdisciplinary healthcare team. It is argued that as nurses take on advanced practice, it is essential they receive appropriate clinical and theoretical skills to ensure they are in a position to provide competent and clinically safe, effective health care in an ethical, efficient manner. A description of a survey, undertaken by the author, studying rural nurses' skills provides the recommendation for the development of an appropriate postgraduate course at Masters level, designed specifically for primary rural nurses for the advanced role.
