  Title Gender, nursing and the PBRF Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 22 Issue 2 Pages (up) 4-11  
  Keywords Research; Sex discrimination; Administration; Education  
  Abstract The authors examine gender based disparities for academics with respect to remuneration, academic grading and Perfomance Based Research Fund (PBRF) scores, whereby women do less well than men in each of these areas. In this article individualised explanations for the failure of women to progress are set in the context of a critical exploration of the PBRF evaluation methodology. It is argued that both academia and the PBRF research assessment exercise embody a form of academic masculinity that systematically disadvantages women in general and nursing in particular.

  Title The myth of medical liability for nursing practice Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 19 Issue 4-12 Pages (up) 4-12  
  Keywords Interprofessional relations; Law and legislation; Nurse practitioners; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract This article explores the complex nature of liability in the case of standing orders and vicarious liability by employers, and also when nurses and doctors are in management roles. The authors address misconceptions about medico-legal responsibility for nursing practice with the advent of nurse prescribers and nurse practitioners. They refer to the submission made by the College of Nurses Aotearoa (NZ) on the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (2003), and discuss practice liability and nurse-physician collaboration.

  Title (Re)positioning nursing: Watch this space Type Journal Article
  Year 2001 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 17 Issue 2 Pages (up) 4-12  
  Keywords History of nursing; Nurse practitioners  
  Abstract This paper traces the emergence of categories of nurse over the last hundred years from the time that the Nurses Registration Act became law in 1901. Insights from the work of Michel Foucault are utilised to show how nurses and nursing have been historically shaped and positioned. It is suggested that the recent endorsement by the Nursing Council of New Zealand of the concept and title of 'nurse practitioner' represents an opportunity for nurses to imagine what might be constructed for their roles.

  Title The challenge of feeling 'at home' in residential aged care in New Zealand Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 21 Issue 3 Pages (up) 4-12  
  Keywords Rest homes; Older people; Patient satisfaction; Nursing; Identity  
  Abstract In this research report, a resident reveals the challenges associated with firstly becoming a nursing home resident, and then trying to establish a new sense of 'home'. The story supports a conclusion that nurses' knowledge of the unique 'admission story' of each resident, and their individual understandings of home, is essential in promoting their ongoing comfort. Although approximately 30,000 older adults live in residential aged care, little research has been done on their experience.

The issues in all countries are remarkably similar.

  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 20 Issue 3 Pages (up) 4-12  
  Keywords History of nursing; Nurse-family relations; Paediatric nursing; Parents and caregivers  
  Abstract Oral history accounts of the care of the hospitalised child in the context of family are used to argue that current practice paradoxes in family-centred care are historically ingrained. The article looks at the post-war period, the intervening years, and current practice, centred on the changing concept of motherhood throughout that time. The conflict between clinical expediency versus family and child needs is explored.
