Corbett, A. (1992). The use of breast milk and the re-establishment of the Human Breast Milk Bank in the Neonatal Unit in Waikato Hospital. Ph.D. thesis, , .
Abstract: The suitability of human breast milk for the nurturing and development of the human species is proven over hundreds of thousands of years. Human milk is without peer in containing all the nutrients required for the growth and development of the human infant.Over and above the nutrient factors, human milk has significant immunological, anti-infective, and anti-allergy properties that should be foremost in deliberations of neonatal nurses and doctors, before one considers calorie counts and weight gain. Lucas and Cole ( 1990) have shown the terrible consequences of using formula in preterm babies over those fed only human milk, The NZ Cot Death Studies' first year results have shown the significance of breast feeding in reducing the incidence of cot death., giving an oblique reference to the effects of neonatal staff attitude on mothers milk of at risk babies.A ready supply of human breast milk used to be available to neonatal staff from the milk bank. All but a very few of these banks were closed down all over the world due to AIDS phobia rather than by any scientific fact. Sufficient time has gone by for science and nationality to govern the use of human breast milk, and a case is made for the reopening of the Milk Banks

Harraway, M. A. (1992). End of an era: history of nursing education at Sunnyside Hospital 1904-1987. Ph.D. thesis, , .
Abstract: The original purpose of this work was to put some notes together about nurse training at Sunnyside for the hospitals 150th anniversary celebrations. When the celebrations were cancelled, the author continued with the project out of personal interest.A variety of historical research methods were used to collect data for the project. These included a literature search of historical publications related to the subject and the period; gathering documents and statistical records from a variety of sources; writing letters to previous students and tutors, requesting photographs anecdotes and opinions; and a number of prearranged interviews.The resultant brief history, published finally in 1992 is a collection of records, anecdotes, reproduced documents and photographs, interspersed with referenced information from the literature and the writers comments.Past and present staff of this once large psychiatric institution have been able to look at their training in a historical and social context, and in many cases, to see their names in print in the class lists. Others who are undertaking a historical study of Mental Health Nursing in New Zealand may find it useful as a reference work

Abstract: There's Nobody There, is a qualitative study of the practise of caring for confused elderly people. It examines the implications of community care for social policy. It presents an account of the everyday lives of twenty eight family members who care for people with Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia. It shows that community care like other forms of care, carries a cost that the burden is largely borne by the carers themselves, rather than by the State

Abstract: This research project studied the ways in which nurses are educationally prepared for, and responded to, ethical problems in practice. The study involved both descriptive and analytical-interpretive methods that provided information and insights on the given aims of the research. The research findings indicated that nurses were educationally ill prepared in the area of nursing ethics. It also maintained that nurses that nurses were quite able to correctly identify ethical issues in their practice, but felt restrained about their freedom to act autonomously in response to these issues
