Hutton, G. (2018). How do rural nurse specialists in South Westland perceive their personal safety whilst working in isolation? Master's thesis, University of Otago, Christchurch.
Abstract: Identifies how rural nurse specialists (RNS) working in South Westland (SW) perceiver their personal safety in a rural environment as compared with an urban one. Uses a focus group to explore RNS responses and to identify the following themes related to safety in isolated environments: community, pressure to perform, and luck versus planning for safety. Suggests recommendations for future practice.
