  Year 2012 Publication Whitireia Nursing Journal Abbreviated Journal Available through NZNO library  
  Volume Issue 19 Pages  
  Keywords Careers in Nursing; Minority Groups; Nursing Shortage; Personnel Recruitment  
  Abstract The purpose of this study was to explore how young people make career choices and why young people choose or reject nursing as a career choice. This study has highlighted the complexity of this decision-making process, and the importance of making positive connections and offering appropriate support during this process. It seems that many young people are well equipped to make career decisions when given support.

The need to recruit people from minority cultures into nursing is a global issue. This study also highlights the need for an inter-sectoral approach to raise the profile of nursing and make a career that is attractive to young people.

  Title Critical Elements of Pre-hospital Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Type Journal Article
  Year 2012 Publication Whitireia Nursing Journal Abbreviated Journal Available through NZNO library  
  Volume Issue 19 Pages 9-17  
  Keywords Death, Sudden; Cardiac Defibrillators Automated; External Prehospital Care; Resuscitation; Cardiopulmonary Ventricular Fibrillation  
  Abstract Baker et al., (2008) showed diminished rates of survival in the CPR-first group. Based largely on the evidence of the two Australian RCTs, the 2010 ILCOR guidelines removed the recommendation for CPR first, stating that 'there is inconsistent evidence to support or refute a delay in defibrillation to provide a period (90 s to 3 min) of CPR for patients in VF/pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT) cardiac arrest' (ILCOR, 2010, p. e6).\n For this reason, and due to the increased chance of accidental defibrillation, it is the recommendation of the author that it only be used by health professionals who are able practise on a regular basis.

He outlines the cost of such a culture on nursing practice and presents strategies for change.
