| Title | The contribution of simulation in the development of clinical judgement: Students' perspectives | Type |
Book Whole | ||
| Year | 2019 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 181 p. | ||
| Keywords | Simulation; Clinical judgement; Nursing students; Pre-registration; Surveys | ||||
| Abstract | Conducts an exploratory case study investigating the experiences of third-year undergraduate nursing students in simulations, collecting stories about their experiences in the clinical environment, and highlighting the potential use of simulation as an alternate learning environment to foster the development of clinical judgement in nursing students. Considers two research questions: how do nursing students experience simulation as an environment for learning, and how do nursing students' learning experiences in simulation and clinical practice influence their development of clinical judgement skills? Conducts one-to-one interviews and observes simulations in the course of an exploratory case study. | ||||

| Title | Listening to New Zealand nurses: A survey of intent to leave, job satisfaction, job stress, and burnout | Type |
Book Whole | ||
| Year | 2004 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | Stress; Job satisfaction; Nursing | ||||
| Abstract | This study aims to identify work related factors contributing to New Zealand nurses' intent to leave the job. Two hundred and seventy five surveys (response rate = 68.8%) from a random sample of 400 nurses employed in one district health board were used to explore intent to leave the job. Three research questions directed the description of levels of job satisfaction, job stress, and burnout found in nurse participants, correlations between the three variables, and the identification of variables predicting intent to leave the job through regression analyses. The survey found levels of job satisfaction were high, job stress was low, and burnout was average. Specifically, lack of opportunity to participate in organisational decision making, control over work conditions, control over what goes on in the work setting (key Magnet Hospital characteristics) were not evident, and with pay rates, were the main sources of job dissatisfaction. Workload was the most frequently experienced source of stress by nurse participants. Twenty-five per cent of nurse participants reported high levels of intent to leave the job. Correlations suggested that reductions in job satisfaction influenced increases in job stress and burnout. Job stress was associated with increases in emotional exhaustion. Emotional exhaustion was influenced by eight job satisfaction, job stress, and burnout subscales. Five subscales (professional opportunities, praise and recognition, interaction opportunities, extrinsic rewards, lack of support) explained 26.2% of the variance in nurse participant's intent to leave. The author concludes that issues of power and control were associated with job dissatisfaction, job stress and burnout in nursing practice. However, predictors of intent to leave the job suggest a growing realisation by nurse participants that postgraduate education and nursing research may provide the tools to create positive change in the health care environment and make nursing visible, valued and appropriately rewarded. | ||||

| Title | Suctioning adults with an artifical airway: A systematic review | Type |
Book Whole | ||
| Year | 2000 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | Subscriber access at the Joanna Briggs Institute | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | Evidence-based medicine; Nursing research | ||||
| Abstract | This systematic review was conducted by the New Zealand Centre for Evidence Based Nursing, a collaborating centre of The Joanna Briggs Institute for Evidence Based Nursing and Midwifery. The aim was to present the best available evidence on interventions, which are effective in preventing or reducing the prevalence of complications associated with suctioning, in hospitalised adult patients with an artificial airway who are breathing spontaneously or are artificially ventilated and who require suctioning. The specific questions addressed were as follows: Which methods of suctioning reduce the prevalence of mucosal trauma or mucosal dysfunction, and promote the removal of respiratory secretions? Which techniques or methods are effective in reducing the occurrence of suctioning -induced hypoxaemia, during or following the suctioning procedure? Which techniques or methods are effective in minimising the haemodynamic or pulmonary complications associated with the suctioning procedure? | ||||

| Title | What are the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards nursing, work and career?: a descriptive exploratory study | Type |
Book Whole | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 313 | ||
| Keywords | Generation Y; Registered nurses; Workforce retention; Work-life balance; Careers in nursing | ||||
| Abstract | Undertakes a descriptive exploratory study to ascertain the views of Generation Y NZ Registered Nurses (Gen Y nurses) towards nursing, work and career. Little empirical data exists about why young New Zealanders choose to become nurses in the 21st century. Further, little is known about their future career plans or their intentions to remain in the nursing workforce. Conducts a nationwide on-line survey of 358 Gen Y nurses from late 2009 to early 2010. Reports key findings: young NZ nurses are driven by traditional values of altruism, the desire to care for others, the ability to work closely with people, as well as being able to make a strong contribution to society when deciding to become a nurse, while seeking interesting, challenging and exciting work. Job security, the ongoing demand for nurses, the ability to leave and return, as well as the ability to combine work and family, are also important factors that help them to choose to become nurses. | ||||

| Title | Nursing Prioritisation of the Patient Need for Care:Tacit Knowledge of Clinical Decision Making in Nursing | Type |
Book Whole | ||
| Year | 2005 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 193 p. | ||
| Keywords | Clinical decision-making; Patients; Prioritisation; Need for care | ||||
| Abstract | Explores the nursing literature for the tacit knowledge of the discipline about nursing prioritisation and proposes a 'fit' for nursing prioritisation of the patient need for care within the bigger picture of nurse clinical decision-making. Indicates that nurses use discretionary judgment and ongoing assessment to determine the relative importance of the many aspects of individual patient situations as they unfold. Examines the body of knowledge pertaining to clinical decision-making in nursing, suggesting that nursing prioritisation of the patient need for care is most readily discerned in the interpretive perspective and in the plain-language descriptions of nurse decision-making. | ||||
