  Title Demonstrating outcomes in a nurse-led clinic: How primary health care nurses make a difference to children and their families Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 18 Issue 1-2 Pages 164-176  
  Keywords Primary health care; School nursing; Nurse managers  
  Abstract The study outlined here explored outcomes from the provision of primary health care to children aged 5-13 years in a nurse-led clinic based in a primary school in Auckland. This multi-faceted study collected both qualitative and quantitative data, however it is the results of the quantitative arm of the study that are presented here. Data were collected from a variety of sources concerning conditions seen, age and ethnicity of users, types of services provided and impact on hospital usage. Findings demonstrate that the provision of comprehensive primary health care by the nurse at the clinic impacts positively on hospital visitation by children from the area where the clinic is located.

  Title Nurse-managed clinics: Issues in evaluation Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 44 Issue 6 Pages 558-565  
  Keywords Evaluation research; Nurse managers; Qualiltative research; Patient satisfaction  
  Abstract This article explores the importance of evaluation of nurse-managed clinics using the Mana Health Clinic in Auckland, as an example. Fourth generation evaluation is offered as an appropriate methodology for undertaking evaluation of nurse-managed clinics. Fourth generation evaluation actively seeks involvement of clients in the process and outcome of the evaluation, resulting in participation and empowerment of stakeholders in the service – a precept often forgotten in traditional evaluation strategies and of vital importance in understanding why people use nurse-managed clinics. The method proposed here also incorporates the need for quantitative data. The main argument is that a combination of qualitative and quantitative data sources is likely to give the greatest understanding of nurse-managed clinics' utilisation.
