| Abstract |
This retrospective quasi-experimental study reviewed assaults in two adult mental health inpatient rehabilitation units. The majority of clients in this area experience enduring mental health illnesses and have complex physical health issues. The service comprises of an intensive rehabilitation unit and a secure extended rehabilitation unit. Between May and August 2001 the service moved to purpose built facilities. The opportunity was taken to review clients' assaultive behaviour in the new environment and to compare the incidents with those in the old environment to see if there had been any significant changes. Data on assault incidents including time of assault, place of assault, who was involved and what preventative actions were suggested were collected from the Incident and Accident Hazard Reports (IAHR) dating from 1 April 2000 until 31 May 2002. Staff were expected to complete IAHR reports on all assault incidents. The research examined whether the change in environmental conditions impacted on clients' wellbeing in relation to assaultive behaviour. Trends within the IAHR reports were also examined in order to compare these to similar studies completed in other parts of the world. There were 141 IAHR reports of assault incidents. Fifty of these occurred in the pre move period, 38 in the transition phase and 53 in the post move. There was no significant difference in the rate of assaults in the pre-move to post move period. Completion of the IAHR forms was seen to be very problematic, especially in relation to legal status of perpetrators and documentation of prevention strategies. An urgent audit of existing practice is now required to establish if problems found with the quality and completion of the IAHR forms continues to be evident in the rehabilitation service and if present staff education is needed to improve the standard of documentation. Research is also needed to establish the extent to which staff implement strategies to prevent assaults, and to reduce recidivism. |

| Abstract |
The authors discuss the usefulness of a generic tool to measure job stress in New Zealand workplaces, and report on a study using one such generic tool. The study involved sending questionnaires to all staff (193) who had worked at a regional women's health service for a minimum of six months. The mailed package contained the Job Stress Survey (JSS), the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12), demographic questions (including cultural safety), shift work questions, and a blank page for “qualitative comment”. Over 12,000 pieces of data were collected from the study but this article focuses only on the results of the JSS. The JSS can be used to determine a “job stress index” and can also be used to measure “job pressure” and “lack of organisational support”. For this study, job stress index scores were calculated and organised by occupational groupings. Midwives, nurses and doctors all cited inadequate or poor quality equipment, excessive paperwork, insufficient personal time, and frequent interruptions, as their top stressors. Three of these four stressors fall within the job pressure index. The results of the survey prompted organisational changes, including: extensive discussions; equipment being updated; management being made aware of the depth of concern felt by staff; the creation of a place for staff to have personal time; and coping intervention strategies were initiated. The authors suggest that no generic measure of job stress can fully evaluate stressors unique to a particular work setting. They support additional items being constructed and administered to assess stressors that are idiosyncratic to a particular occupational group. |

| Abstract |
Maintains that achieving health equity for indigenous populations requires indigenous nursing leadership to develop and implement new systems of care delivery. Develops a consensus among indigenous nurse academics from Australia, Canada, NZ and the US on the three themes of nursing leadership, to redress colonial injustices, to contribute to models of care and to enhance the indigenous workforce. Highlights five indigenous strategies for influencing outcomes: nationhood and reconcilation as levers for change; nursing leadership; workforce strategies; culturally-safe practices and models of care; nurse activism. |

| Abstract |
The aim of this study was to examine nursing in New Zealand and to see whether aspects of the work environment are associated with health status. A total of 225 registered nurses in a general hospital completed the Revised Nursing Work Index (NWI-R) and Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). Ratings indicated that the New Zealand hospital environment was characterized by less autonomy and control and better nurse-physician relations than in USA hospitals. Results of correlations demonstrated that more positive ratings of the three workplace attributes were associated with better health status amongst the nurses. The results of regression analyses were indicative either of a confounding relationship or of a mediating relationship such that nurses' relations with physicians, administration and other departments mediate the associations between autonomy, control and health status. |
