  Title Ensuring doctoral research is relevant to the international nursing community Type Journal Article
  Year 2023 Publication Nursing Praxis in Aotearoa New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 39 Issue 2 Pages  
  Keywords Nursing research; Doctoral research; PhD research; International research community  
  Abstract Argues that nurses undertaking doctoral research have a responsibility to ensure their research engages with international nursing research and is relevant post-doctorally. Distinguishes between the purpose of PhDs and Professional Doctorates. Finds that nursing doctoral graduates are impeded from assuming leading roles in funded research. Attempts to find ways to address this challenge, suggesting that remote attendance at conferences and Internet communication with nurse researchers overseas encourages an international perspective on nursing topics.

  Title Contracting as a career option for nurses Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue 1 Pages 20-22  
  Keywords Professional development; Nursing; Work  
  Abstract A nurse presents research and her own experiences of contracting. Contracting, as defined in this article, refers to a nurse not employed permanently on a wage. It covers agency nursing, short and long fixed-term contracts and secondments. The author identifies the need to continue to develop professionally, which is now a mandatory requirement under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance (HPCA) Act. Contractors have little, if any financial support to develop professionally, and time taken to do courses is not paid. Taking study leave within a contract may also not be an option. Options for managing professional development in these conditions are offered, including goal setting, investing in education or training, and considering some longer contracts. Practical financial advice and examples are given, including managing accounts and consideration of employment law. The author recommends that skilled nurses looking for interesting ways to develop their careers and to branch out in an entrepreneurial way should seriously consider taking up contract work.

  Title Smoking and health: an analysis of policymaking structure and process within the Department of Health concerned with the issue of smoking and health Type
  Year 1980 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract An analysis of policy making structure and process within the department of Health concerned with the issue of smoking and health. This paper deals with an important area of public policy both in terms of process and substance. It attempts to identify how policy is made in New Zealand. How policy is determined by the elected representative of the people and how far policy is made by the permanent state employees. The way political power is brought to bear in policy implementation is examined, as is the question: What level of policy research and analysis on smoking and health is affected in New Zealand? Attention is directed towards complex ideas of participation, representation and minority rights as well as to democratic theory in relation to cause and influence of conflict, public opinion formation, interest group influence and public policy making

  Title Holding together: Caring for clients undergoing assisted reproductive technologies Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 60 Issue 6 Pages 645-653  
  Keywords Nursing specialties; Sexual and reproductive health; Communication; Multidisciplinary care teams  
  Abstract This paper reports a study to investigate the roles and experiences of nurses caring for clients undergoing assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Nurses are in a potentially unique position in the assisted reproductive technology environment as they maintain a more constant contact with the client. A qualitative approach was taken and a convenience sample of 15 nurses from New Zealand was interviewed in 2005. Data were analysed using interpretive description. The overarching theme identified was that of the potential role of the nurse to 'hold together' multiple components of the assisted reproductive technology process: holding together clients' emotional and physical experiences of assisted reproductive technologies; holding together the roles of different specialist team members; and holding together personal own emotions. It encompasses practices such as information-giving, interpreting, supporting and advocating. The researchers note that recognition of and support for the complexity of the role of ART nurses may positively contribute to clients' experiences.
