Title How accountable is accountable for mental health nurses? Type
Year 2004 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Accountability; Nursing; Mental health
Abstract (down) Accountability has been described by nurses as an elusive concept or myth. The author suggests that this elusive concept or myth can partly be attributed to accountability becoming visible usually following a critical incident. The overall goal of this project is to provide nurses working within mental health with the incentive to raise their awareness and explore what their roles and responsibilities are within the accountability process in a more positive scenario. This research paper reports on an exploration of the key components of accountability within the New Zealand mental health environment. It describes significant influences that affect accountability. This is achieved by the means of a literature review, sharing of the author's experience of being involved in a national inquiry, and the adaptation of a who what and how framework, in conjunction with a diagram displaying accountability levels and lines for mental health nurses. The author points out that the domains of accountability for nurses will continue to evolve and expand but what remains important is that consumers have access to good quality mental health care.

Abstract (down) A study to examine the effects of pre- information ( what a Nurse learns about a patient before they meet) on clinical inference and Nursing actions, in a simulated Nurse- Patient situation. It was hypothesized that the nature of the pre-information will influence the way the patient is perceived and the resulting Nursing actions. The research was conducted in an obstetrical setting. There were 55 subjects within three groups. Two groups comprised student midwives and the third group was of second year comprehensive Nursing students near completion of clinical experience in maternal and child health nursing. A 5 minute videotape sequence of a role played post natal patient was made for use in the research. All subjects were given the same initial pre-information, viewed the videotape and gave written description of what they saw on the videotape and their response ( as the Nurse in the situation). This data provided a base line for each subject. Subject were then given additional pre-information concerning the patient's physical condition, her baby's condition or formed part of the control group ( receiving no additional information) The procedure was repeated. These responses were then compared with the base line for each subject. Responses were coded by means of content analysis. Group data was analysed using multivariate one way analysis of variance graphical display. The results indicated support of the hypothesis that the nature of the pre-information does influence the way in which a Nurse perceives a patient and resulting Nursing actions. Implications of these findings for Nurses are discussed
