  Title Leadership development: Supporting nursing in a changing primary health care environment Type Journal Article
  Year 2002 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 18 Issue 2 Pages (down) 24-32  
  Keywords Leadership; Professional development; Primary health care; Nursing  
  Abstract The author argues that the involvement of nurses in the decision-making of health organisations is essential to maximise the contribution of nurses and promote positive outcomes for patients. She suggests that development of leadership skills will make nurses aware of power structures in the health system and allow them to become interdependent health professionals in primary health organisations (PHO). The particular competencies discussed are those proposed by Van Maurik (1997), namely ability to understand and manage organisational politics, work facilitatively with people and circumstances, and build a feeling of purpose.

  Title Routine and rigidity: Barriers to insulin initiation in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Type Journal Article
  Year 2010 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal NZNO Library  
  Volume 1 Issue 1 Pages (down) 19-22  
  Keywords Medication compliance; Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent; Primary health care  
  Abstract It has been shown that intensive management of diabetes with type 2 diabetes is effective and has led to wider use of insulin. The conversion of patients from oral medication to insulin is usually managed in primary care. The study discussed here aimed to explore how patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) perceived insulin. The study was conducted in 2009 in an urban general practice in a large town in New Zealand with more than 300 patients with type 2 diabetes. A qualitative study was conducted with face-to-face interviews with 13 participants. The question focused on insulin initiation, lifestyle and routine. The transcribed responses were subject to thematic anaylsis. Interviews showed participants felt restricted by the prospect and eventuality of the routine and restrictions of being on insulin. Results show there needs to be a greater emphasis on the disease being progressive. This study provides the ground work for developing resources that will benefit patients with T2DM.
