  Title Ensuring doctoral research is relevant to the international nursing community Type Journal Article
  Year 2023 Publication Nursing Praxis in Aotearoa New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 39 Issue (down) 2 Pages  
  Keywords Nursing research; Doctoral research; PhD research; International research community  
  Abstract Argues that nurses undertaking doctoral research have a responsibility to ensure their research engages with international nursing research and is relevant post-doctorally. Distinguishes between the purpose of PhDs and Professional Doctorates. Finds that nursing doctoral graduates are impeded from assuming leading roles in funded research. Attempts to find ways to address this challenge, suggesting that remote attendance at conferences and Internet communication with nurse researchers overseas encourages an international perspective on nursing topics. Backgrounds the establishment of an international nursing research community between Oxford Brookes University in the UK and Victoria University of Wellington in NZ.

  Title Pre-employment health screening: Is it useful? Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Vision: A Journal of Nursing Abbreviated Journal Available online from the Eastern Institute of Technology  
  Volume 11 Issue (down) 17 Pages 10-14  
  Keywords Occupational health and safety; Nursing specialties  
  Abstract The author, an occupational health nurse, examines rationale for and effectiveness of the pre-employment assessment, which has become an accepted practice. Reasons for doing assessments include the reduction of risk to the employer from lower accident rates and absenteeism, compliance with legislative requirements and the provision of baseline health measures for general health surveillance. The costs of the screening process, along with the benefits are weighed up, in conjunction with international research in the area. The author found little research on the process in New Zealand. The opportunity for primary health care and health promotion practice as an aspect of this screening is highlighted as an important, though underestimated, benefit. Regular auditing is recommended to ensure that the outcomes of the process meet the criteria required.

  Title New Zealand registered nurses' use of physical assessment skills: A pilot study Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication Vision: A Journal of Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue (down) 14(1) Pages  
  Keywords Clinical assessment; Nursing; Evaluation  
  Abstract The objective of this project was to ascertain registered nurses' use of selected physical assessment skills before and after participation in a health assessment course. A pre- (also referred to as part I) and post- (part II) test design was used to investigate the research aim. Participants were obtained via a convenience sample. A questionnaire was completed at the beginning of the educational programme and then four to six weeks after completion of the assessment course. A two tailed t-test was used to identify any significant differences in the characteristics of participants from part I (N = 206) to part II (N = 145), with no differences identified. However, there was an overall mean percentage difference of 17.1% in the use of physical assessment skills after having completed the educational programme. In conclusion, the researchers found that four to six weeks after completion of a health assessment course, nurses were using the skills learned to improve their nursing practice more frequently than before the programme.

  Title Linking cultural safety to practice: Issues for student nurses and their teachers Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Vision: A Journal of Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue (down) 13(1) Pages  
  Keywords Students; Cultural safety; Teaching methods; Nursing; Education  
  Abstract Student nurses rely on their teachers, both academic and clinical, to assist them to develop their capacity to practice safely. Yet, in relation to cultural safety, relatively little has been written to assist the integration of theoretical knowledge to the world of practice. This article presents the findings of a small project undertaken by lecturers whose experiences supporting students' learning during clinical placements in Auckland stimulated interest in the students' attempts to use their classroom learning to begin their journey towards culturally safe nursing practice. A qualitative descriptive approach was used to explore the experience of nursing clients from cultures other than one's own and to describe culturally safe practice from the perspective of third year students.
