| Abstract |
The caring experiences of patients and nurses, within the context of that relationship, within a mental health setting, were examined. A phenomenological approach was used to discover the meanings beyond the respondents descriptions and expressions of what it meant to be to be cared for, or to provide care |

| Abstract |
An exploratory qualitative study was investigated to further identify nurses'' attitudes to the care of people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodefiency syndrome (AIDS). This follows as a sequel to a study using questionnaire. Data collected from nine focus groups attended by a total of 29 nurses at a hospital within a new Zealand regional health authority. The principal findings suggest that nurses' attitudes to this patient group are varied and depend on social influences, personal experiences and the extent of knowledge regarding HIV/AIDS. Other concerns raised included nurses' rights to choose to care for HIV-positive patients and the issue of universal precautions. Theses findings may have implications for further educational initiatives and information of hospital policy |

| Abstract |
The move to nursing degrees has encouraged educators to use student centredteaching methods which develop problem solving skills, critical thinking andreflection. Kola's Experiential learning cycle is proposed as one method to developsome of these skills. The study compared the effectiveness of three differentmethods of teaching the instillation of eye drops and application of an eye pad. Asample of 73 volunteers from a Diploma of Nursing programme were systematicallyassigned to one of three groups. The modified experimental design consisted of acontrol group (tutor demonstration and student practice), Kolb's group (teachingusing the experiential cycle) and the SDL group (self directed learning using writteninformation with no tutor instruction or feedback). Participants rated their confidence,competence and the amount of thinking, analysis, guidance and problem solvingbefore and after each method.Results for instilling eye drops indicated that there were no significant differences onthe pre-test ratings and a marginally significant difference (p=0.06) on the post testratings across the teaching methods. Results for the eye pad showed no significantdifferences on pre-test or post-test ratings across the methods. Students learnt by allmethods and the differences, if there were any, were not large enough to bedetected in this study. There was a significant difference in problem solving and tutorguidance across the methods due to the low ratings of the SDL group. There was nosignificant difference in thinking, analysis or partner guidance across the methods |

| Abstract |
A telephone survey was conducted with 61 randomly selected patients who had been admitted to the cardiology service with an Myocardial infarction but did not attend the cardiac rehabilitation programme. Findings show that many patients who would benefit from cardiac rehabilitation are denied access because it is only open to patients who have Myocardial Infarctions. Only a small percentage of MI admissions attend rehabilitation the main reason being patients are not informed the service is available. Women are under represented among rehabilitation participants and lack of transport is a major factor inhibiting women from attending. Improvements in referral systems and follow up are recommended |

| Abstract |
This report builds upon previous research undertaken in 1992 entitled 'the ethical preparation and practice of nurses: a pilot research project'. The overall aim was to compare new data with the results and tentative conclusions of the earlier research. Following two years of data gathering and analysis and discussions with diverse groups of experienced nurses, the conclusions of the earlier study were re-appraised in light of the contemporary developments in nursing ethics. The main conclusion of the research was that several nurses already possessed an ethic that was appropriate for their practice, but that it was unrecognised by other health professionals |
