  Title In pursuit of the named nurse Type Journal Article
  Year 2000 Publication Australasian Journal of Neuroscience Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue 4 Pages 6-9  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Hospitals; Evaluation; Nurse-family relations; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract This paper outlines the project outcomes, benefits, impact and constraints of introducing the named nurse concept to a neuro-services department. The concept of the named nurse was first introduced in the UK, in 1992, with the aim of supporting the partnership in care between the patient and the nurse. The evidence for the effectiveness of introducing the named nurse concept is largely anecdotal. In line with the hospital wide policy of implementing the named nurse concept at Auckland Hospital, a six-month pilot study was undertaken within the Neuro-services Department. The aims of the study were to foster a partnership in care with patients / whanau and the multidisciplinary team, to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of delivery of nursing care, and to contribute to continuous quality improvement. The results highlighted that, in theory, the named nurse concept would be effective in providing quality co-ordinated care, however factors were identified that hindered the effectiveness of its implementation. Therefore, further development of the concept was required.

  Title A survey of role stress, coping and health in Australian and New Zealand hospital nurses Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Intensive & Critical Care Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 44 Issue 8 Pages 1354-1362  
  Keywords Stress; Psychology; Cross-cultural comparison; Nursing  
  Abstract The aim of this study was to examine and compare Australian and New Zealand nurses' experience of workplace stress, coping strategies and health status. A postal survey was administered to 328 New South Wales (Australia) and 190 New Zealand volunteer acute care hospital nurses (response rate 41%) from randomly sampled nurses. The survey consisted of a demographic questionnaire, the Nursing Stress Scale, the WAYS of Coping Questionnaire and the SF-36 Health Survey Version 2. More frequent workplace stress predicted lower physical and mental health. Problem-focused coping was associated with better mental health. Emotion-focused coping was associated with reduced mental health. Coping styles did not predict physical health. New South Wales and New Zealand scored effectively the same on sources of workplace stress, stress coping methods, and physical and mental health when controlling for relevant variables. Results suggest mental health benefits for nurses who use problem-solving to cope with stress by addressing the external source of the stress, rather than emotion-focused coping in which nurses try to control or manage their internal response to stress. Cultural similarities and similar hospital environments could account for equivalent findings for New South Wales and New Zealand.

  Title The elective way: An exploration of pre-operative education for orthopaedic joint replacements Type
  Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Patient satisfaction; Surgery; Education  
  Abstract This research paper provides a description and analysis of literature and research focusing on pre-operative education programmes available internationally and nationally for patients receiving total joint replacements. This discussion differentiates between pre-assessment and pre-operative education to provide an understanding that both aspects are important in there own right. Together pre-assessment and pre-operative education complement each other to provide total care for patients awaiting total joint replacement surgery. One way of alleviating apprehension experienced by the patient about their surgery is by providing appropriate joint replacement education programmes that meet their needs. This type of programme is a form of empowerment which provides patients with appropriate and relevant information. This allows the patient to be actively involved in their own care and enable them to make informed decisions. The importance of education, information and communication; anxiety and pain; family and peer support; mobility and insecurity is a common thread in the literature where patients describe their experiences and concerns following a total joint replacement. These concepts are discussed and related to why pre-operative education programmes are recommended to help alleviate patients concerns and are important in providing a total multidisciplinary approach to care.

  Title Building child health nurses' confidence and competence Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue 5 Pages 26-38  
  Keywords Paediatric nursing; Nursing; Education; Evaluation  
  Abstract This article describes the development of the Generic Orientation Programme, Child Health Nursing and its perceived impact on practice after ten months, through two simultaneous evaluation surveys, seeking the views of programme participants and their nurse managers. The programme aims to equip the newly appointed RN in the child health cluster or the nurse working in a non-designated children's area with the knowledge and skills to safely care for children. These include basic anatomical and physiological differences; fluid and electrolyte management; safe administration of medication; pain management; recognition of the seriously ill child; and building partnerships with children and their families. A survey instrument eliciting qualitative and quantitative responses was used. The majority of nurse respondents believed they had gained new knowledge and described how they were incorporating it into everyday practice. Similarly, several nurse managers observed that nurses' clinical knowledge and skills had improved since attending the programme. In particular, responses from those working in non-designated children's areas suggested the programme had provided them with greater insight into the care of children.

  Volume 20 Issue 3 Pages 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.

  Title 'Can mummy come too?' Rhetoric and realities of 'family-centred care' in one New Zealand hospital, 1960-1990 Type
  Year 2001 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nurse-family relations; Policy; Hospitals; History of nursing; Paediatric nursing  
  Abstract This study explores the development of 'family-centred care' in New Zealand as part of an international movement advanced by 'experts' in the 1950s concerned with the psychological effects of mother-child separation. It positions the development of 'family-centred care' within the broader context of ideas and beliefs about mothering and children that emerged in New Zealand society between 1960 and 1980 as a response to these new concerns for children's emotional health. It examines New Zealand nursing, medical and related literature between 1960 and 1990 and considers both professional and public response to these concerns. The experiences of some mothers and nurses caring for children in one New Zealand hospital between 1960 and 1990 illustrate the significance of these responses in the context of one hospital children's ward and the subsequent implications for the practice of 'family-centred care'. This study demonstrates the difference between the professional rhetoric and the parental reality of 'family-centred care' in the context of one hospital children's ward between 1960 and 1990. The practice of 'family-centred care' placed mothers and nurses in contradictory positions within the ward environment. These contradictory positions were historically enduring, although they varied in their enactment.
