| Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to gain insight into the possible factors [precipitating back injury in Nurses who had injured their backs during 1985. 23 Nurses were interviewed and factors such as age, years of Nursing, circumstances of injury, why nurses thought the injury had occurred, were examined. Treatment and the effects of the injury on the Nurse were explored. Significant findings were delay in seeking medical assessment when back injury was suspected, and the changes in lifestyle and home and work habits which followed injury. Findings from this study were used to initiate an action study of Nurses lifting patients |

| Abstract |
Health professionals, as well as clients, appear to often miss, ignore or avoid alcohol as a health problem. Changes in role for Nurses as well as changes in concepts of alcoholism, alcohol and alcohol control especially in sociological terms led to this study of Nurse's attitudes to alcohol as a social issue. Aim was to shed light on the adequacy of Nurses to function in the community and in the application of sociologically oriented programs of alcohol control. 44 Student Nurses on the point of entering clinical practise were questioned on 21 attitude items. Their responses were compared to those of 100 respondents selected as comparable demographically from 10,000 New Zealanders surveyed in 1978-79 by A.L.A.C. Differences were found, but no strong profile of distinctive 'nurse' views could be identified with confidence. No real extra concern for alcohol issues could be established giving some doubts about the efficiency of Nurses in the workplace. Nurses did differ in some areas of social viewpoints from the general New Zealand population but further studies are needed to more exactly define dimensions of these differences |

| Abstract |
In October, 1986 the fifteen technical institutes that run Nursing programs in New Zealand were sent questionnaire that were designed to find out about the Nursing Research Component in the Diploma of Nursing, The Advanced Diploma of Nursing and other Nursing Courses. The same questions were asked of each of these courses. Twelve replies were received and eleven were analysed in this report. Two general observations emerged from the Diploma of Nursing: 1. The questionnaires varied greatly in the detail provided in answers. 2. Where there were small numbers enrolled in the Diploma of Nursing, the questionnaire answers suggest there is less emphasis placed on Nursing research as a separate component in the course. This small project provides us with some information about the Nursing Research Component in the Diploma of Nursing courses offered in New Zealand |

| Abstract |
The progress of 22 adult patients was recorded for three days post operatively. Pain was assessed at rest and on activity three times a day using visual analogues. Nausea levels were assessed similarly. All analgesics and anti emetics administered were recorded. There was a wide range of variation in the administration of medications and consequently a wide range of effectiveness. A significant proportion of patients showed unacceptably high levels of pain indicating under treatment. Patients and nurses had conflicting expectations of who should initiate the request for pain medication |
