  Title In pursuit of the named nurse Type Journal Article
  Year 2000 Publication Australasian Journal of Neuroscience Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue 4 Pages (up) 6-9  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Hospitals; Evaluation; Nurse-family relations; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract This paper outlines the project outcomes, benefits, impact and constraints of introducing the named nurse concept to a neuro-services department. The concept of the named nurse was first introduced in the UK, in 1992, with the aim of supporting the partnership in care between the patient and the nurse. The evidence for the effectiveness of introducing the named nurse concept is largely anecdotal. In line with the hospital wide policy of implementing the named nurse concept at Auckland Hospital, a six-month pilot study was undertaken within the Neuro-services Department. The aims of the study were to foster a partnership in care with patients / whanau and the multidisciplinary team, to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of delivery of nursing care, and to contribute to continuous quality improvement. The results highlighted that, in theory, the named nurse concept would be effective in providing quality co-ordinated care, however factors were identified that hindered the effectiveness of its implementation. Therefore, further development of the concept was required.

  Title Research Advisory Paper: Highlights of the 2011 Younger Nurse Study Type Report
  Year 2011 Publication Abbreviated Journal Download from: http://www.nzno.org.nz/services/resources/publications  
  Volume Issue Pages (up) 6 pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The NZNO Younger Nurse survey examined the characteristics of younger nurse members of NZNO (aged under 30) in order to identify potential recruitment and retention strategies for these nurses, and provide information on how best to support younger members to become involved in NZNO activities.

The findings indicate that while most younger nurses enjoy their work and find it rewarding, they also face a range of challenges in the workplace due to their age ?including bullying and poor choice of shifts. Many younger nurses do not feel appropriately paid for the work they do and believe there are insufficient nurses to provide safe care. Over 10% of younger nurses are considering leaving the nursing profession. Many younger nurses feel the emotional challenge of nursing was more than they anticipated and that their education did not prepare them well to manage this.

A range of recommendations are made including the need to improve undergraduate curriculum content on managing the emotional challenges of nursing, the need to implement clinical supervision for all nurses but particularly for those under 30, the need to develop and implement activities to address bullying in the workplace, and the need to improve pay progression scales in employment contracts.

Further research is required to explore why there is a discrepancy between female and male nurses?postgraduate qualifications by age, the particular needs of younger Indian and South East Asian nurses, the discrepancy between younger nurses and older nurses perceptions of insufficient nurses, and what type of emotional stress younger nurses find most challenging.

  Title Vital Signs: Research Advisory Paper: Highlights of the NZNO Employment Survey, 2011 Type Report
  Year 2011 Publication Abbreviated Journal Download from: http://www.nzno.org.nz/services/resources/publications  
  Volume Issue Pages (up) 6 pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This report documents the results of a survey of a random sample of NZNO members.

A 10% sample was drawn by computer from the 45,000 membership, representing nurses and care givers from across New Zealand. Midwives were excluded from the

sample on this occasion.

Issues related to age demographics, low pay, increasing workload, and significant

organisational restructuring continue to contribute to a considerable part of the nursing workforce who will be looking to leave nursing, to nurse overseas, or to retire within the next ten years. These appear to be balanced for now partly by other factors leading to nurses continuing to work long past the normal retirement age.

Changes to the Enrolled Nurse scope of practice (including a drop in employment

opportunities as Enrolled Nurses), difficulties experienced by some newly qualified New Zealand nurses finding suitable employment or supported Nurse Entry to Practice places, and evidence for a drop in the availability of paid access to continuing professional development particularly in the DHB sector, if not addressed urgently, may have longer term implications for the New Zealand nursing workforce and the health service.

Specific issues for nurses under 30 years of age, particularly related to shift work practices and family responsibilities, were explored in more detail in a separate report Young Nurses in Aotearoa New Zealand and specific recommendations made for the long term retention of these skilled and vital health workers.

  Title Managing it: A mother's perspective of managing a pre-school child's acute asthma episode Type Journal Article
  Year 2002 Publication Journal of Child Health Care Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 6 Issue 1 Pages (up) 7-18  
  Keywords Asthma; Parents and caregivers; Children; Nurse-patient relations  
  Abstract This exploratory descriptive study informed by grounded theory examines the experience of mothers in managing their pre-school child's acute asthma attack at home. The study reveals that mothers perceive that they are responsible for the management of their pre-school child during an acute asthma episode, a process they described as 'managing it'. This process involves mother in 'working on treatment', 'making the call', 'watching' and 'calming', while the husband/partner, family, friends and health professionals are 'supporting treatment'. This study suggests that nurses and doctors need to move away from the current paternalistic view of health care delivery in acute settings and embrace the concepts of support and partnership in the care of the pre-school child with asthma and their family.
