| Title | Preparedness: Lessons for educators from the Christchurch disaster | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2013 | Publication | Kai Tiaki Nursing Research | Abbreviated Journal | Available through NZNO library |
| Volume | 4 | Issue | 1 | Pages | 11-16 |
| Keywords | Education, Nursing; Case studies; Disasters | ||||
| Abstract | This study describes the impact of a sudden, traumatic natural disaster on a bachelor of nursing programme, and the capacity and processes required to minimise disruption to programme delivery and student learning. This descriptive case study, undertaken across 2011-2012, collected data through interviews, a survey and artefact collection. Six key themes emerged from the inductive and descriptive statistical analyses: context; communication; leadership and followership; decision making; the need to balance shifting priorities around professional responsibilities and personal imperatives; and taking action and action plans. The conclusions reached emphasise safety as the first priority, encourage personal risk mitigation, and emphasise the importance of ongoing support and flexibility for all staff and students as well as the need for clear communication and decision-making. What is perhaps most important to take from this experience is that a plan does not, by itself, equal preparedness; every institution must look to its own context, consider its own priorities, and formulate its own approach to preparedness. | ||||

| Title | Evaluating critical care outreach and the early warning score tool ? The ward nurse?s viewpoint | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2013 | Publication | Kai Tiaki Nursing Research | Abbreviated Journal | Available through NZNO library |
| Volume | 4 | Issue | 1 | Pages | 17-24 |
| Keywords | Early warning scores; Critical care nursing; nursing skills | ||||
| Abstract | The aim of this research was to ascertain the opinions of ward nurses (registered and enrolled nurses) on a critical care outreach (CCO) service and the early warning score (EWS) tool and how CCO helps them care for ward patients whose condition is deteriorating. An 18-item Likert scale questionnaire was adapted to gain opinions on three aspects of the service: The usability of the EWS tool and the escalation protocol; the role and usefulness of the critical care outreach nurse (CCON); and education and sharing of critical care skills. The research was conducted in a 270-bed New Zealand hospital with a nurse-led outreach team. The survey was distributed to adult general wards. It found 45 percent of ward nurses found EWS useful in identifying patients whose condition was deteriorating, 58 percent found EWS easy to use and 82 percent found EWS helped them prioritise workloads. On the role and usefulness of the CCON, 41 percent of surveyed nurses found the post-ICU review helpful, 65 said CCONs were approachable, 71 percent found the CCON shift time of 3pm-11pm was useful, 69 percent said the CCON demonstrated sound clinical knowledge, and 54 percent rated CCONs teaching as sufficient for their needs. When CCO was present, nurses were able to formulate an effective management plan for potentially deteriorating patients and acquired critical care skills needed to manage such patients. The results are comparable with other research which sought nurse opinion of CCO. It indicates nurses believe CCO to be instrumental in increasing critical care skills to prevent deterioration in the clinical area. | ||||

| Title | Staff support and quality of care provided by palliative care nurses: A systematic literature review | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2013 | Publication | Kai Tiaki Nursing Research | Abbreviated Journal | Available through NZNO library |
| Volume | 4 | Issue | 1 | Pages | 25-32 |
| Keywords | Hospice and palliative nursing; Systematic review; Staff support; Quality of health care | ||||
| Abstract | There is a considerable body of literature discussing the stressors experienced by nurses and other health professionals when caring for those who are terminally ill and dying. Also, a number of articles offer suggestions, including the views of staff, as to what type of professional and organisational support is required when working in this often demanding specialty. There are, however, very few reports of assessment of the effectiveness of such supportive interventions and in particular, the impact of such support on the quality of patient care. This literature review examines any reported relationships between the quality of nursing provided by palliative care nurses and the staff support received by those nurses. | ||||

| Title | What are the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards nursing, work and career?: A descriptive exploratory study | Type | |||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | Available from the NZNO Library | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 290 pp | ||
| Keywords | Generation Y; Young nurses; Registered Nurses; Workforce planning; Attitudes to nursing; Surveys; Nursing shortages | ||||
| Abstract | The author has taken a broad approach to this research to explore the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards the nursing profession, the work itself and their career plans. This study arose out of the author?s interest in health care workforce planning for nursing and in particular the retention of young nurses given the current national and global shortage of nurses. Because of the broad and descriptive nature of the research, a wide variety of topics are included in the literature reviewed. Chapter one provides background to the study and an overview of generational cohorts. Chapter two explores selected literature relevant to the concept of work and the characteristics of the Generation Y workforce. Other topics included in this chapter include Herzberg?s work motivation hygiene/maintenance theory and a selection of literature about key workforce recruitment and retention issues. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Health Sciences |
