  Title Correction of deformational auricular anomalies by moulding: Results of a fast-track service Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication New Zealand Medical Journal Abbreviated Journal Access is free to articles older than 6 months, and abstracts.  
  Volume 116 Issue 1181 Pages  
  Keywords Infants; Neonatal nursing; Teamwork  
  Abstract This paper reports the result of a fast-track referral service in treating deformational auricular anomalies using moulding therapy, by employing nurses who were familiar with the indications and technique, working in close liaison with plastic surgeons. The type and severity of the auricular anomaly were documented both clinically and photographically before and three months following cessation of treatment. Assessment of the results was made by comparing the pre- and post-treatment photographs and by a postal questionnaire, which was dispatched to the parents of the patients three months after treatment was discontinued. All parents of the 30 infants felt that auricular moulding was worthwhile. The authors conclude that this is an effective treatment strategy that will largely negate the need for surgical correction of deformational auricular anomalies.

  Title Graduates and initial employment Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Nurse Education Today Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 28 Issue 5 Pages 610-619  
  Keywords New graduate nurses; Curriculum; Work  
  Abstract This research project was undertaken to inform nurse educators in the Department of Nursing and Health Studies of Manukau Institute of Technology of the employment opportunities for new graduate nurses emerging from the three year degree and registration programme. Graduates from the programme for the previous three years were surveyed for their experiences in gaining employment. 89.8% of graduates were successful in gaining employment in the first three months post registration. The number of graduates employed within a district health board declined across the three years but there were no significant differences between cohorts. Overall, 73% of graduates were employed into new graduate positions. The majority of graduates felt that their nursing education prepared them well for their role as a registered nurse. The findings of the qualitative data identified a strong need for science throughout the degree; longer clinical blocks; increased hands on experience; more practice with skills and less theory in relation to practical experience.
