Cook, C., Clark, T., & Brunton, M. (2014). Optimising cultural safety and comfort during gynaecological examinations : accounts of indigenous Maori women. Nursing Praxis in New Zealand, 30(3), 19–34.
Abstract: Undertakes a thematic analysis to highlight Maori women's perspectives on health and wellbeing. Identifies 6 key themes in the data: mihi (initial engagement), whakawhanaungatanga (belonging through relationships of shared experience), kaupapa (consultations' main purpose), tapu (sacred and set apart), embodied memories, manawahine (women's knowledge and authority). Asks women about those approaches used by non-indigenous clinicians, receptionists and service providers that enhanced their experiences of cultural safety during sexual health consultations and gynaecological examinations.

Bolitho, S., & Huntington, A. D. (2006). Experiences of Maori families accessing health care for their unwell children: A pilot study. Nursing Praxis in New Zealand, 22(1), 23–32.
Abstract: The aim of this study was to explore with a small number of Maori families their experiences of accessing health care when their children were unwell with a respiratory condition. A qualitative research methodology was used in the study. Participating families were among those experiencing an admission to a children's ward between July and December 2003. Four families were interviewed. They discussed in depth their experience of accessing health care for their unwell children. Data were analysed using thematic analysis, and three common themes were evident: family resources, choice of health service provider and parents' feelings of vulnerability. The findings highlight that while socio-economic status plays a large part in determining the ease with which families can access the needed health care, there are other barriers within the health system which also pose difficulties for Maori.

Abstract: The authors introduce the Kaupapa nursing service at Te Puna Hauora, Tauranga Hospital.

Gifford, H., Walker, L., Clendon, J., Wilson, D., & Boulton, A. (2013). Maori nurses and smoking; Conflicted identities and motivations for smoking cessation. Available through NZNO library, 4(1), 33–38.
Abstract: This research aims to design and test the feasibility of an intervention promoting smoking cessation, and reducing smoking relapse, among Māori nurses who smoke. It is being conducted in two phases. Phase one, a national web-based survey, conducted in December 2012, explored the views of Māori nurses (smokers, ex-smokers and non-smokers) regarding smoking. This paper reports on the analysis of qualitative responses from 410 nurses and nursing students identifying as Māori who completed an online survey. Five themes were identified: beliefs about smoking; ?for our tamariki?; personal stories of quitting; dissatisfaction with current approaches; and plans for future strategies. The findings confirm that nurses who smoke may experience feelings of conflict, and regard their behaviour as inconsistent with their role as nurses and health promoters. Nurses who smoke must be supported to become, and to stay, smokefree. Tailored Māori-specific cessation initiatives are needed.
