  Title Making the invisible visible: Public health nurses role with children who live with a parent with a mental illness Type
  Year 2008 Publication Abbreviated Journal NZNO Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Public health; Children; Community health nursing; Scope of practice  
  Abstract This research uses focus group methodology to examine the public health nursing practice with children living with a mentally ill parent. These children are often neglected, yet are at increased risk of developing mental illnesses themselves. The research data identified the burgeoning impact on public health nurses of such care, and found their role to be primarily assessment and advocacy.

  Title How do nurses describe health care procedures? Analysing nurse-patient interaction in a hospital ward Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Australian Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 25 Issue 4 Pages 58-70  
  Keywords Communication; Nursing; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract This study examines the communication strategies used by nurses on the ward in one aspect of the job, namely the ways that they describe health procedures to patients. The data used in this project was collected by nurses on a busy hospital ward as part of Victoria University's Language in the Workplace Project. Three nurses carried minidisc recorders as they went about their normal working day, recording their conversations with patients, visitors, and other staff. The data was collected in a women's hospital ward. All patients, nurses, cleaners and ward clerks were female; two doctors were female and two were male. Twenty three instances where nurses described procedures to patients were identified in the data set. The analysis identified several typical components; indicated there was no fixed order of components; and demonstrated that all except the core component of describing the procedure were optional rather than obligatory elements. The researchers note this is qualitative and exploratory research. The findings demonstrate the benefit of discourse analysis within a sociolinguistic framework for the analysis of nurse-patient interaction. The results indicate that health discourse is not one-sided, nor is it as straightforward as many nursing textbooks suggest.

  Title Patient privacy in a shared hospital room: Right or luxury? Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 20 Issue 1 Pages 28-35  
  Keywords Patient rights; Law and legislation; Nursing; Hospitals  
  Abstract In this article the author discusses the New Zealand legislation aimed at protecting the individual's right to privacy and concludes that practice may place healthcare consumers' rights at risk. While patient privacy should be of concern to all health professionals, the focus here is on the nurse's role in relation to recently formulated competencies published by the Nursing Council of New Zealand, which includes the recommendation that care be seen to exhibit an awareness of healthcare consumers' rights to privacy alongside the expectation that nurses question practices that compromise patient privacy.

  Title Skin-to-skin care of the very low birth weight infant: Taking a risk and making it happen Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal Otago Polytechnic library. A copy can be obtained by contacting pgnursadmin@tekotago.ac.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Paediatric nursing; Premature infants; Nursing; Hospitals  
  Abstract Parent-infant skin-to-skin care has become an advocated aspect of care in neonatal intensive care units nationally within New Zealand and internationally. However the implementation of this care by nurses can be limited by a number of factors within the practice environment. This dissertation presents a critical analysis of literature alongside reflection on the author's own practice experience to explore factors that may be constraining the use of skin-to-skin care with the very low birth weight infant in the neonatal intensive care unit. These factors are examined through a lens of risk taking behaviour underpinned by the grounded theory work of Dobos (1992). The concept of risk is explored in order to develop an understanding of why, in the author's view, the practice of skin-to-skin care of very low birth weight infants may have declined in recent years. For neonatal nurses skin-to-skin care of the very low birth weight infant presents challenges related to the environment, physiological stability of the infant and changes over the past 10 years in the clinical management of very low birth weight infants. As progress is made toward the design, development and eventual move to a new unit in Dunedin recommendations pertaining to the change in physical space, the introduction of a structured model for nursing care and implications for nursing practice development in relation to skin-to-skin care are described.

  Title Building trust with families in neonatal intensive care units Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 12 Issue 6 Pages 18-20  
  Keywords Paediatric nursing; Neonatal nursing; Parents and caregivers; Communication  
  Abstract Establishing a trusting relationship is a key therapeutic intervention for nurses working with families of hospitalised children. This article is an exploration of the definition of trust. Specifically, it considers how parents come to trust (or not) nurses in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) helps to reveal the meaning of parent-nurse trust and how this affects nursing practice. Understanding and meeting parental needs is important in developing and sustaining trust. The medical model of care often dominates in NICU. This is a deficit model that focuses on illness and treatment. However, the use of a nursing framework, such as developmentally supportive family centred care, focuses on recognising and building on the strengths of the family, by fostering trust to equip the family with the capacity to manage their infant's health care.

  Title Te Ao Maori: Maori nurses' perspectives on assisted dying and the Te Ao Maori cultural considerations required to guide nursing practice Type Book Whole
  Year 2021 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 100 p.  
  Keywords Assisted dying; Death; Te Ao Maori; Cultural considerations; Kaupapa Maori research methodology; Maori nursing  
  Abstract Explores, through kaupapa Māori (Māori ideology) research principles, the fundamental concepts guiding ten Māori nurses working in end-of-life care settings. Identifies the concepts of whanaungatanga (establishing connections), manaakitanga (generosity and care for others), and kaitiakitanga (guardianship) as central to the practice of these Māori nurses along with the ethical principles of tika (the right way), pono (honesty) and aroha (generosity of spirit). Describes how these concepts and principles shape how these Māori nurses cared for their Māori patients and whānau, and for themselves. Stresses the need for the health system to better understand the Maori world view on death and dying.

  Title Enteral nutrition within 72 hours after spinal chord injury: Complexities and complications Type
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal Otago Polytechnic library. A copy can be obtained by contacting pgnursadmin@tekotago.ac.nz  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Nursing; Intensive care nursing  
  Abstract Good nutrition is essential following acute spinal cord injury. Poor nutrition can lead to the deleterious effects of protein-calorie induced hypermetabolism and poor functional and rehabilitation outcomes. Nutritional management for patients with acute cervical or high thoracic spinal cord injury admitted to the Canterbury District Health Board's Burwood Spinal Unit and Christchurch Hospital's Department of Intensive Care Medicine (CHDICM) differ. The Burwood Spinal Unit has a delayed approach to nutritional management in contrast to the implementation of early enteral feeding by CHDICM. This prompted a literature review to critically consider the evidence underpinning clinical practice in this field. Literature revealed that nutritional management in the first 72 hours after spinal cord injury is a complex process. The complexities of when to commence, the method of delivering, and the target dose of enteral nutrition in the first 72 hours after spinal cord injury are due to the perceived risk of a spinal ileus and the ensuing, such as adverse effects on abdominal and respiratory function, resulting from enteral feeding intolerance. Literature revealed that delayed nutrition is largely based on expert opinion, while early enteral feeding has limited but stronger scientific research evidence. Nevertheless, it is desirable to use the best evidence currently available to develop, implement and evaluate an evidence-based, protocol driven, clinical pathway for nutritional management of patients within 72 hours of an acute cervical or high thoracic SCI. The author concludes that to ensure an acute spinal cord injury clinical pathway is based on scientific evidence, prospective, multi-centre, randomised controlled trials are needed to substantiate early enteral feeding and identification of the degree of and risk of complications from spinal ileus after acute cervical or high thoracic spinal cord injury.

  Title Marking space: A literary psychogeography of the practice of a nurse artist Type
  Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; Mental health; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract The author suggests that the thesis as a production of disciplined work presented in a creative style is congruent with performance and presentation best practice in community arts. As a practising nurse artist the author describes creating spaces of alternate ordering within the mental health field environment. “I also inhabit the marginal space of the artist working in hospital environments. This Other Place neither condones nor denies the existence of the mental health field environment as it is revealed. Yet, it seeks to find an alternative to the power and subjectivity of the [social] control of people with an experience of mental illness that inhabit this place both voluntarily and involuntarily. I have used a variety of texts to explore the experience and concept of Otherness. The poems are intended to take you, as a reader where you could not perhaps emotionally and physically go, or might have never envisaged going. They also allow me as the author to more fully describe the Otherness of place that is neither the consumer story nor the nurse's notation, but somewhere alternately ordered to these two spaces. Drawing on the heuristic research approaches of Moustakas and literary psychogeography , particularly the work of Guy Debord, this thesis creates the space to explore the possibilities of resistance and change and the emergence of the identity of the nurse artist within the mental health field environment”.

  Title Psychiatric/mental health nursing: Positioning undergraduate education Type
  Year 2002 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; History of nursing; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract In this paper, the critique of the mental health component of comprehensive nursing education and the questions that it raises are explored from historical, structural and ideological perspectives. In order to locate the past and highlight its significance to where psychiatric/mental health nurses find themselves today some of the history of the asylum system and the development of psychiatric nursing in New Zealand within these structures are presented. Ideological changes to the way mental health was thought about, and responded to, have had considerable impact on where psychiatric nurses practiced, how they practised and what they were named. This created the need for a different kind of nurse and has led to changes in the education of nurses. The structural influences on the training and education of nurses are identified through relevant reports and their recommendations and significance in relation to psychiatric/mental health nursing are examined. Issues deriving from the critique of undergraduate psychiatric/mental health nursing education highlight the urgent nature of the crisis and draw out the multiple and competing discourses that inform the education of nurses. In acknowledging that the crisis can be viewed from multiple perspectives the need for responses from multiple levels involving the Nursing Council of New Zealand, the Ministry of Health, the Mental Health Commission and nurses in education and practice are recommended.
