  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 (up) 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 Implementing a prescribing practicum within a Master's degree in advanced nursing practice Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 23 Issue 2 Pages (up) 27-42  
  Keywords Advanced nursing practice; Education; Nurse practitioners; Prescribing; Teaching methods  
  Abstract This article reports the implementation of a collaborative project undertaken to monitor and improve the effectiveness of the prescribing practicum papers delivered within two Master's degree programmes in advanced nursing practice. The recent introduction of Nurse Practitioner registration in New Zealand has resulted in the development of a number of Master's degree programmes in which students can complete a Nursing Council of New Zealand approved programme for prescribing. For the study, a developmental action research approach was used. Data were collected through interviews with practicum students, their medical supervisors and academic staff. Formative findings were progressively used to refine delivery of the practicum papers and a thematic analysis of summative findings identified areas for further improvement. The findings suggest that the processes being implemented are developing well. The researchers recommend that further education is required to clearly differentiate medical and advanced nursing roles. They recommend that greater attention needs to be paid to the preparation of medical supervisors and, most significantly, revision of funding is required to more equitably support the ongoing development of nurses for advanced practice roles.

  Title Can evidence improve nursing practice? Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Nursing Journal Northland Polytechnic Abbreviated Journal coda, An Institutional Repository for the New Zealand ITP Sector  
  Volume 10 Issue Pages (up) 27-32  
  Keywords Evidence-based medicine; Nursing; Professional development  
  Abstract Evidenced Based Practice is aimed at providing safe, effective and cost-appropriate health care. The utilisation of EBP in nursing has proved to be valuable not only for patients and nurses, but also for other health professionals and the wider community. However, despite the recognised benefits of EBP, a significant gap between theory and practice exists. This paper explores some of the issues behind not implementing EBP, such as comfort with traditional practices, lack of engagement with EBP, and time constraints.

He presents the concept of horizontal violence as a way to understand why nurses, as a marginalised group, perform oppressive acts towards male nurses, who are similarly oppressed. He outlines the cost of such a culture on nursing practice and presents strategies for change.

  Title The evidence behind more than a decade of policy recommending influenza vaccination for young New Zealanders with long term medical conditions Type Journal Article
  Year 2011 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal Held by NZNO Library  
  Volume 2 Issue 1 Pages (up) 27-32  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This article reviews the recent evidence underpinning the New Zealand Ministry of Health's recommendation to offer free annual influenza vaccination to people aged six months to 64 years who have certain chronic medical conditions (eligible younger people). These results show there is relatively limited research providing evidence underpinning recommendations for influenza vaccination among people aged <65 years. These results show that there is a need to increase nurses' awareness of the rationale behind the New Zealand influenza vaccination policy, that this may in turn increase their willingness to recommend influenza vaccine to more eligible younger people.
