| Abstract |
The diagnosis of childhood cancer has a profound impact on the family. How nurses understand family affects their practice with families facing the diagnosis of childhood cancerShaped by Heideggerian phenomenology, van Manens methodology for hermeneutic phenomenology was used to construct an understanding of family from the experiences of family members facing the diagnosis of childhood cancer. Seven family members from two families, one mother, two fathers, two siblings, and two grandparents were interviewed about their experience of facing the diagnosis of childhood cancer.From the participants experience the meaning of family was interpreted as being-with-others, for-the-sake-of-others, who one might not distinguish from oneself. This understanding of family is recognisable, yet different from traditional definitions of family and may help nurses and family members to act more thoughtfully and tactfully with each other |

| Abstract |
The report of an exploratory study of current approaches to case management by nurses as requested by the College of Nurses Aotearoa New Zealand. It revealed different interpretations of nurse case management around New Zealand and in the US, UK and Australia. They differed according to the conceptualisation of health service design and delivery in the respective country. Case management in New Zealand in general presented nurse care management roles as an interface between the mangement of health service delivery and the peculiarities of the healthcare people received, holding the potential for achieving tailored, patient-centred care outcomes. |

| Abstract |
There is concern over the standards of nursing practice skill acquisition in undergraduate programs. One of the issues relevant to this is which of the multitude of nursing practice skills to include in an undergraduate program. Previous research by Alavi, Loh and Reilly (1991) has been modified and used in clinical settings in the New Zealand context in order to address this concern. Competency level of the most important skills identified by clinicians was also sought in order to aid development of a skill curriculum for Whitireia Community Polytechnic. There is a strong theoretical support for the preparation of student nurses in skills laboratories prior to clinical learning experience in order to maximise learning. Further directions for study are covered with discussion of the implications for teaching from the research findings |

| Abstract |
This study aimed to explore the range of issues that surround the continuity of wound care between hospital and community care settings in a provincial area of New Zealand, from the perspective of the health care professionals providing the wound care. Previous research into continuity of care concentrated predominantly upon purely nursing issues. This means that both the profound implications of the interprofessional relationships of the various health care professionals involved in wound care, and the far-reaching effects of the socio-economic context within which wound care was given were often not considered. A critical ethnographic approach was employed to explore continuity of care in this community. Health professionals were interviewed twice. A first interview discussed some of the unacknowledged power relations and the contextual issues that effect continuity of wound care, as well as offering the opportunity for the participants to reflect on the issues that emerged. Following preliminary analysis of the data from the first interview, a summary of findings was given to each of the participants which served as a focus for the second interview. Following these, the data were analysed, and the main themes that influenced the continuity of wound care for the participants were identified. Analysis of the data revealed all the participants practicing under considerable socio-political constraints which interfered with their ability to provide high quality wound care for their patients: these constraints dictated both who gave the wound care and how they were able to do it. The data also revealed the various relationships between the different professionals as another major area of influence upon continuity of wound care. Medical dominance was identified as having a profound impact upon nurses ability to optimise continuity of wound care. The study concluded there are a number of areas that need to be addressed in order to optimise continuity of wound care, at both local and governmental level. The development of a nurse-led wound clinic is one initiative that would go a long way to address these issues |
