  Title Report of a survey undertaken to determine factors that may affect the registered nurses' desire to participate in continuing education Type
  Year 1987 Publication Abbreviated Journal Inservice Educaton Department, Middlemore Hospital  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Nurses at a New Zealand Metropolitan Hospital were surveyed to determine whether the following factors affected their desire to participate in continuing education. Age, Family responsibilities, reading of Journals/Health literature related to Nursing, attendance of in service/staff development programs, careers aims and intended number of years to remain in Nursing. 30 Nurses were requested to participate in the research project. They were either registered General and Obstetric Nurses or Registered Comprehensive Nurses and 15 worked full time while 15 worked part time. Null hypotheses were formulated and tested because it is recognised that Nurses have a professional responsibility to maintain their knowledge and expertise and to do this in a Health Care system and society that is continually changing there must be a commitment to life long continuing education. Therefore , I thought it would be of interest to determine whether certain factors influenced Nurses' desire to participate in continuing education. With the factors of Age, Family responsibilities, hours of work, number of years registered reading of Journals/Health literature related to Nursing, and intended number of years to remain in Nursing there was no significant difference (p> 0.10) in the desire to participate in continuing education, as was Nurses basic qualification (p< 0.05) With the factor of attendance of in service/ Staff development programs there doesn't appear to be any significant difference and with career plans the sample expected frequencies were too small for statistical analysis

  Title Revisiting the past: A focused ethnography of contemporary dual diagnosis nursing practice Type
  Year 2005 Publication Abbreviated Journal Copy downloadable from the NZNO Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing  
  Abstract As has been the case internationally, deinstitutionalisation of dual diagnosis (intellectual disability and mental illness) services has also occurred in New Zealand. Inpatient services have been redefined to respond to the more acute focus that has arisen out of this deinstitutionalisation process and nurses are having to redefine their roles in response. This study was undertaken to explore and describe the culture of nursing practice in a dual diagnosis inpatient unit in one psychiatric hospital. A focused ethnographic approach was used to triangulate data gathered from fieldwork observations, review of documents and semi-structured interviews. Schein's (1985) levels of culture model, was used to identify and explore the artifacts, values and assumptions evident in this nursing practice. Analysis presents three key themes categorised as 'communication', 'assessment' and 'safety'. While these key themes are shown to be evident in the everyday practice of the nurses, how these relate to the notion of 'dual diagnosis nursing' is not clear. Therefore, the author describes the major finding of this study as revealing a nursing culture holding tight to traditional psychiatric and psychopaedic nursing practices and struggling to develop a distinctive culture in the absence of a defined dual diagnosis knowledge base. The author concludes that these findings suggest an urgent need to provide nurses with support in gaining contemporary knowledge regarding dual diagnosis nursing. Support for nurses in advancing these areas then impacts on support for the patients. It is suggested that additional research is undertaken to assess the learning needs of the nurses in order to develop clinical practice guidelines for this area. Further recommendations are made to address system issues which are contributing to the gap in knowledge.

  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 Weaving the contemporary position of maatauranga Maaori within nursing practice Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Maori; Culture; Nursing models; Nursing; Health status  
  Abstract This thesis explores the customary kaupapa of Matauranga Maori or Maori knowledge, which the author identifies as the appropriate technique to determine how health care should be maintained by and for Maori. The research highlights the need to meld these kaupapa with that of a contemporary Maori viewpoint, to focus more on a deeper enhancement of these kaupapa, and develop an understanding of the social, cultural, educational, political and economic contexts these concepts have on Maori as a people. This research identified six Maori registered women nurses, who shared their experiences regarding Matauranga Maori and its importance to their nursing practice. Over a period of one year, in-depth conversations unfolded and produced data on what Matauranga Maori involves and how the six participants in the study believe it influences their nursing practices. All were currently practicing nurses within various health settings such as psychiatric and comprehensive nursing. From the inception of this study, the focus was to introduce Matauranga Maori as the epistemological framework of choice. The author notes that the findings of this research indicate that a collection of key kaupapa, namely whakapapa, whanaungatanga, te reo Maori, wairuatanga, tuurangawaewae, manaakitanga and rangatiratanga are crucial to the health and wellbeing of Maori as a people. These kaupapa enable Maori to determine and strengthen their worldview, which in turn reflects the concept of being Maori thereby contributing to the health and status of their whanau, hapu and iwi. She goes on to say that the findings support the view that there is a substantial collection of kaupapa, which are inherent in Matauranga Maori as being able to provide a framework for theoretical research. These kaupapa will provide a framework for nursing practice and educational curricula that will develop and maintain nursing standards to meet the needs of Maori.
