  Title Education leadership in the clinical health care setting: A framework for nursing education development Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Nurse Education in Practice Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 6 Issue (up) 6 Pages 404-410  
  Keywords Organisational change; Law and legislation; Nursing; Education; Leadership  
  Abstract This paper describes how a new framework for clinical nursing education was introduced at Counties Manukau District Health Board. The project was initiated in response to the significant legislative and post registration nursing education changes within New Zealand. The journey of change has been a significant undertaking, and has required clear management, strong leadership, perseverance and understanding of the organisation's culture. The approach taken to managing the change had four stages, and reflects various change management models. The first stage, the identification process, identified the impetus for change. Creating the vision is the second stage and identified what the change would look like within the organisation. To ensure success and to guide the process of change a realistic and sustainable vision was developed. Implementing the vision was the third stage, and discusses the communication and pilot phase of implementing the nursing education framework. Stage four, embedding the vision, explores the process and experiences of changing an education culture and embedding the vision into an organisation. The paper concludes by discussing the importance of implementing robust, consistent, strategic and collaborative processes that reflect and evaluate best educational nursing practice.

Author Lewer, D. openurl 
  Title Analysing the Mental Health Act Type Journal Article
  Year 1999 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 5 Issue (up) 8 Pages 14-16  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; Mental health; Law and legislation; Ethics  
  Abstract Changes brought by the Mental Health Act (MHA) to clinical practice, and some of the problems it has created for nurses, are examined in this article. Compulsory assessment and treatment orders (CATO) and the role of Duly Authorised Officers (DAO), and moral dilemmas that can arise as a consequence of CATOs used by DAOs are examined. The requirement for DAOs to act as patient advocates and to safeguard cultural beliefs are highlighted. The MHA promotes self responsibility and a treatment philosophy rather than detention of the mentally ill.
