  Title Emerging discourses shaping high-fidelity simulation as an education platform in Aotearoa New Zealand pre-registration nursing education: A Foucauldian discourse analysis Type Book Whole
  Year 2022 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 311 p.  
  Keywords High-fidelity simulation (HFS); Nursing education; Discourse analysis; Michel Foucault  
  Abstract Asserts that nursing needs to think critically about High-fidelity simulation (HFS) use, and its dominance, in the educational preparation of nurses. Draws on the tenets of postmodernism and Foucauldian discourse analysis methodology to question the discourses and discursive practices that influence the use of HFS as an approach to intentional and unintentional teaching and learning in pre-registration nursing education in NZ. Explores how this shapes nursing students' subjectivity and, ultimately, nursing practice.

  Title What undergraduate nurse education actually teaches student nurses about people named as older: A Foucauldian discourse analysis Type Book Whole
  Year 2020 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 198 p.  
  Keywords Nursing education; Aged care; Nurses' perceptions; Stereotypes  
  Abstract Traces the origins of gerontology knowledge among student nurses while considering how people designated as older are perceived by the student nurse, and the effects of functional decline and biomedical discourses on their views of older people when on clinical placement in aged residential care (ARC) facilities. Hghlights the contested domain of gerontology knowledge to generate dialogue about how older age is actually represented in student nurse education, as the current iteration perpetuates stereotypical assumptions about older age.

  Title Dying to know: Advancing palliative care nursing competence with education in elderly health settings Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Professional development; Nursing specialties; Palliative care; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract This paper explores the benefits of using education as one means to advance palliative care competence for nurses. A literature search was conducted revealing numerous educational initiatives and approaches have been developed to improve palliative care. Benefits include improved nursing knowledge, confidence and competence which directly correlate with improved patient outcomes. Accompanying the shift of palliative care from hospices to varied health care providers globally, are disparities in care provision. The literature suggests that reasons for such disparities include insufficient specialised palliative care knowledge and skills of nurses to effectively deliver this care within generalist health settings and lack of information for caregivers. In response, approaches aimed at improving palliative care include reviewing, redefining and implementing nursing roles, education courses, and theoretical frameworks to inform practice and improve outcomes. This paper focuses on the benefits of offering tailored palliative care education in work settings to improve patient care. One entrepreneurial education initiative aimed at advancing palliative nursing and which is currently being implemented in aged care contexts is shared. Careful strategic planning and working more collaboratively between all stakeholders, is strongly recommended in order to manage current and future challenges. Advancing palliative nursing care using appropriate education is achievable and beneficial but is fraught with complexities.

  Title Patient experience of joint replacement education: A joint venture Type
  Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nurse-patient relations; Health education; Communication  
  Abstract The aim of this research was to explore patients' educational experiences and the usefulness and benefits of this health education in the rehabilitation period, when undertaking a total joint replacement. An exploratory, qualitative descriptive study method was used to describing patients' experiences of health education. Five participants, convenience sampled, were interviewed eight to twelve weeks post surgery following unilateral total joint replacement in a tertiary hospital. Participants valued the education they received pre operatively, which included written material, video and individual interaction with varied health professionals. Although this was provided in a timely manner, evidence showed limited post operative reinforcement and follow up of given education and preparation for discharge. Three 'partnership' themes were identified from data, Communicative, Subservient and Knowledge. 'Communicative Partnership' conceptualised the participants' experiences of the nurse-patient relationship, whilst 'Subservient Partnership' captured the participants' experiences of 'being' patients. 'Knowledge Partnership' combined the participants' ideas about knowledge and their retention of this knowledge to assist with their rehabilitation post surgery. The needs and experiences of patients after total joint replacement reflect on transitional change – changes in roles, behaviour, abilities and relationships. Educational contents need to reflect a realistic recovery process to assist with this transitional period, delivered by health care professionals in a manner best suited for patients.

  Title The benefits and challenges of one New Zealand nursing undergraduate clinical education model: A case study Type
  Year 2004 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Clinical supervision; Preceptorship; Education; Students; Nursing  
  Abstract This research project utilised a case study approach to give ward managers a voice in the literature, by exploring and describing from their perspective the benefits and challenges of one particular nursing undergraduate clinical education model. The tertiary education provider contracts the health provider to provide Clinical Nurse Educators (CNEs) to support second and third year undergraduate nursing students during their clinical experiences. The CNEs are seconded from their respective wards to meet the organisation's contractual obligations. Data were gathered from two ward managers using semi-structured interviews. The findings elucidate the role of the undergraduate CNE, highlighting benefits such as the CNE being supernumerary to ward rosters and having time to teach, not only supervise students. CNEs are student-focused and easily accessible as they are based on site. The CNE was the one person who was 'there' for a student as a student's preceptor can change shift-by-shift and day-by-day. One significant challenge which emerged was the replacement of ward staff, not only of senior nurses who can leave their wards for up to 12 weeks to undertake the CNE role but also that of the student's preceptor if the student's preceptor was on annual, sick or study leave. Other challenges such as the inability of ward managers to pre-book casual staff; preceptor work-loads; skill-mix issues and fluctuating fulltime equivalents are also discussed.

  Title Psychiatric/mental health nursing: Positioning undergraduate education Type
  Year 2002 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; History of nursing; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract In this paper, the critique of the mental health component of comprehensive nursing education and the questions that it raises are explored from historical, structural and ideological perspectives. In order to locate the past and highlight its significance to where psychiatric/mental health nurses find themselves today some of the history of the asylum system and the development of psychiatric nursing in New Zealand within these structures are presented. Ideological changes to the way mental health was thought about, and responded to, have had considerable impact on where psychiatric nurses practiced, how they practised and what they were named. This created the need for a different kind of nurse and has led to changes in the education of nurses. The structural influences on the training and education of nurses are identified through relevant reports and their recommendations and significance in relation to psychiatric/mental health nursing are examined. Issues deriving from the critique of undergraduate psychiatric/mental health nursing education highlight the urgent nature of the crisis and draw out the multiple and competing discourses that inform the education of nurses. In acknowledging that the crisis can be viewed from multiple perspectives the need for responses from multiple levels involving the Nursing Council of New Zealand, the Ministry of Health, the Mental Health Commission and nurses in education and practice are recommended.

  Title Competency and capability: Imperative for nurse practitioner education Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Australian Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal The author-version of article, available online from Queensland University of Technology ePrints arc  
  Volume 24 Issue 1 Pages 8-14  
  Keywords Nursing; Education; Nurse practitioners; Curriculum  
  Abstract The objective of this study was to conduct research to inform the development of standards for nurse practitioner education in Australia and New Zealand and to contribute to the international debate on nurse practitioner practice. The research was conducted in all states of Australia where the nurse practitioner is authorised, and in New Zealand. The research was informed by multiple data sources including nurse practitioner programme curricula documents from relevant universities in Australia and New Zealand, interviews with academic convenors of these programmes and interviews with nurse practitioners. Findings include support for masters level of education as preparation for the nurse practitioner. These programs need to have a strong clinical learning component and in-depth education for the sciences of specialty practice. Additionally an important aspect of education for the nurse practitioner is the centrality of student directed and flexible learning models. This approach is well supported by the literature on capability.

  Title Cultural safety and nursing education in Aotearoa and Te Waipounamu Type
  Year 2002 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Cultural safety; Maori; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract The research on which this thesis is based involves both a private narrative and a public narrative, with the story of cultural safety, and the history, theory and the future direction gathered into one qualitative work. The work is divided into three sections. The first is entitled, Ko Wai Matou? The Private Narrative. This section seeks to explore the historical, social, educational, physical, emotional, political and moral influences and ephiphanies which brought about the personality which introduced cultural safety ideas into nursing and midwifery. Early nursing practice is investigated and examples from practice are used to illustrate learning and consolidation of the ideas which led to Cultural Safety Theory. The second section is entitled He Huarahi Hou: A New Pathway. This section explains the progress of the theory and its relationship to education pedagogy and to nursing practice. Comparison between the work of Madeline Leininger and the Transcultural Theory of Nursing and the New Zealand concept of cultural safety is undertaken. The role and application of the Treaty of Waitangi to the theory of cultural safety is explored in this section. The third section, entitled He Whakawhanuitanga: The Public Narrative, looks at the introduction of cultural safety into the nursing education system and its implementation. The public and media reaction to the inclusion of cultural safety in the national examination for nursing registration and the subsequent parliamentary response are noted. The interviews with nursing and midwifery leadership, Maori and pakeha key players in the process and consumer views of the ideas are documented and pertinent excerpts have been included. The work concludes with a discussion on the likely future of cultural safety as a theory and in practice and outlines several issues which represent a challenge to the viability of the concept in nursing and midwifery education. The author notes that the story of cultural safety is a personal story, but also a very public one. It is set in neo-colonial New Zealand, but has implications for indigenous people throughout the world. It is about human samenesses and human differences, but is also a story about all interactions between nurses and patients because all are power laden. Finally, she points out that, although it is about nursing, it is also relevant to all encounters, all exchanges between health care workers and patients.

  Title Emotional competence and nursing education : A New Zealand study Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 24 Issue 1 (Mar) Pages 36-47  
  Keywords Teaching methods; Communication; Nursing; Education; Nursing models  
  Abstract Explores the challenges encountered by nurse educators who seek to assess aspects related to emotional competence in nursing students. This emotional competence includes nurses managing their own emotional life along with the skill to relate effectively to the multiple colleagues and agencies that nurses work alongside. The research was designed to explore the views of nurse educators about the challenges they encounter when seeking to assess a student's development of emotional competence during the three year bachelor of nursing degree. Focus groups were used to obtain from educators evidence of feeling and opinion as to how theory and practice environments influence student nurses' development of emotional competence. The process of thematic analysis was utilised and three key themes arose as areas of importance to the participants. These were personal and social competence collectively comprises emotional competence in nursing; emotional competence is a key component of fitness to practise; and transforming caring into practice. The findings of the study indicate a need for definition of what emotional competence is in nursing. It is argued that educators and practicing nurses, who work alongside students, must uphold the expectation that emotional competence is a requisite ability and should themselves be able to role model emotionally competent communication.

  Title “Caring as the heart of nursing education” Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal Otago Polytechnic library. A copy can be obtained by contacting pgnursadmin@tekotago.ac.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Education; Nursing; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract Literature and discussion on the role of caring theory in nursing has been in evidence for at least the past 30 years. Many nursing theorists have identified caring as the heart of nursing. Nursing is a profession involved and concerned with relationships. These relationships begin in the schools of nursing, and are continued into the clinical practice setting. Curriculum development is focused on ensuring nurses are prepared for the real world of practice. It is the author's belief, that nurses who receive their education in an environment where caring is modelled and evidenced throughout the curriculum, become nurses who continue to practice in a caring way. This dissertation will demonstrate that Swanson's (1991) five caring processes provide a framework to evidence caring practice within a nursing curriculum. The author believes this topic needs to be discussed as schools of nursing continue to review their curricula to prepare nurses for an ever changing and challenging health environment. This dissertation explores the question, 'If caring is at the heart of the profession of nursing, is it also at the heart of nursing education?' The author's objective is to inform the reader, and perhaps encourage educators to be courageous in the demonstration of caring practice, and in the development of caring curricula.

  Title Advancing nursing practice through postgraduate education, part two Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 20 Issue 3 Pages 21-30  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Professional development; Education; Research  
  Abstract This paper continues presentation of the findings of a North Island based research project that explored the impact of clinically focused postgraduate education on advancing nursing practice. Like their international counterparts, increasing numbers of New Zealand nurses are enrolling in advanced practice programmes. Yet, despite international evidence supporting the usefulness of Masters level preparation for advancing clinical practice, questions about the need for such development persist. This paper argues that postgraduate education contributes to the development of courage and that this, in turn, is essential to overcoming the barriers that currently constrain the advancement of nursing practice.
