  Title (up) Behind barriers: patients' perceptions of hospital isolation for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Type
  Year 2008 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Infection control; Patient satisfaction; Nursing specialties; Hospitals  
  Abstract This study explored the experiences of hospitalised patients in methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolation in New Zealand and the meaning that those patients made of those experiences. The research question of this study was 'What is the lived experience of patients in MRSA isolation?' An interpretive phenomenological approach was undertaken for this research, informed by the philosophical hermeneutic tenets of Heidegger (1927/1962). Audio-taped, semi-structured interviews were used to collect data from a purposive sample of ten adults who were in MRSA isolation in various wards in a large acute care hospital in the central North Island. Three salient themes emerged from the data. The first, 'being MRSA positive', summarises the meaning of having an identity of being MRSA positive. The second theme, 'being with others', is concerned with the effect that being in isolation for MRSA has on interpersonal relations. 'Living within four walls' is the third theme and reveals the significance that the physical environment of the MRSA isolation room has on the experience of MRSA isolation. Within the discussion of these themes, excerpts from the interviews are provided to illuminate the meanings and interpretations made. Recommendations are made for nursing practice and education.

  Title (up) Being and becoming an exemplary nurse: An authentic journey Type
  Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nursing philosophy; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract The aims of this study were to illuminate the joint constructions of exemplary nurses and their lived experiences of being and becoming one. Inherent in being 'exemplary' was the notion of 'becoming', which involved the integration of knowledge and experiences through reflecting on the day-to-day of 'being a nurse'. Being exemplary was not about perfection but learning from every experience and integrating these into becoming. The author developed a creative qualitative and participatory method. Ten exemplary nurses were recruited and interviewed three times. They also provided supplementary data such as photos, poetry and writings. Analysis occurred through first and second level categorising and the use of writing as method. Writing became a way of knowing – assisting discovery and allowing reflection on the data in order to connect the categories and themes together in a coherent and workable whole. The author reports that the above method led to the following emergent findings. The pivotal construct was Authentic Being, through living a reflective life, surrounded by the major constructs of Love of Nursing, Making a Difference, Critical Friends, Walking the Talk and Backpack patients. These constructs directed a specific and comprehensive review of both the philosophical and nursing literature. This review was not used to expand or enlarge the findings but to enlighten, illuminate and clarify. Significant philosophical ideas were extended, developed and synthesised with the findings. The author suggests that the new knowledge that emerged from this research has profound implications for everyday nursing practice, undergraduate and post graduate nursing education, and for Charge Nurses and Senior Nurses, who are of vital importance as role models, mentors and critical friends. The results are significant and are important for nurses and the nursing profession and contribute to, and advance, nursing knowledge.

  Title (up) Being constrained and enabled: A study of pre-registration nursing students ethical practice Type
  Year 2004 Publication Abbreviated Journal Auckland University of Technology Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Ethics; Nursing; Students  
  Abstract This study uncovers the experience of being ethical from the perspective of pre-registration nursing students. Using the qualitative methodology of phenomenology, specifically that outlined by van Manen, it seeks to show how students act ethically within everyday practice. Providing nursing care is an ethically charged undertaking and despite ethics taking an increasingly important place in nursing education, the author suggests that few studies show the contextual nature of ethical practice from the perspective of students. This study aims to partly redress this situation. In this study the author has interpreted the experiences of twelve pre-registration students. Using seventeen stories shared by the student participants, the author's personal understandings and literature, the meaning of being ethical has been illuminated. Three themes emerged from the interpretation. These include 'keeping things 'nice'', 'being true to yourself' and 'being present'. This thesis asserts that the overarching theme within these themes is that of 'being constrained and enabled'. Being constrained shows the experiences of students as they live through the tensions of being and doing as they strive to be ethical. Being enabled shows the experience of self-determination. Finally the study maintains that the shaping of ethical practice for undergraduate students may be enhanced when their reality is positioned and valued within educational processes.

  Title (up) Best practice management strategies for mental health nurses during the clinical application of civil commitment: An overview Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 21 Issue 1 Pages 62-70  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; Law and legislation; Nurse-patient relations; Patient satisfaction  
  Abstract The aim of this article is to outline best practice management strategies for nurses during the clinical application of civil commitment of mentally ill persons. A literature search on 'coercion' and 'civil commitment' was undertaken. Published and unpublished research undertaken by the authors in New Zealand on this topic was drawn upon. This research considered the use of civil commitment during admission to acute mental health services, acute forensic mental health services and community mental health services. The experience of coercion by service users coincides with the degree of restriction associated with the service they are involved in. Socio-demographic factors, clinical factors and the experience of coercive events have little bearing on the amount of coercion experienced. Rather, it is the pattern of communication and the use of 'procedural justice' that has the potential to ameliorate the amount of perceived coercion. The authors conclude that 'Procedural justice' aligns with the emphasis placed on the therapeutic relationship in mental health nursing and is an important consideration for nurses during the clinical application of civil commitment

  Title (up) Betwixt and between: A critical ethnography of comfort in New Zealand residential aged care Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Journal of Clinical Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 16 Issue 5 Pages 937-944  
  Keywords Geriatric nursing; Rest homes; Patient satisfaction; Quality of health care  
  Abstract This research sought to explore the nature of comfort within the context of three New Zealand nursing homes and examine how nursing and other actions contribute to residents' comfort. A critical ethnographic approach was used and fieldwork included 90 days of participant observation, interviews with 27 residents and 28 staff and extensive document examination. Comfort was multidimensional, idiosyncratic, dynamic and context dependent, rather than merely the absence of discomfort. This multidimensional nature meant residents could be 'betwixt and between' comfort and discomfort simultaneously. The constraints of one-size-fits-all care delivery practices and the tensions inherent in communal living compounded residents' discomfort. The findings show that individualised care, based on comprehensive and accurate nursing assessment, is fundamental to the comfort of residents.
