Title The language of nursing practice in hospitals Type Conference Article
Year 1997 Publication Abbreviated Journal held by NZNO Library and author
Volume Proceedings of the National Nursing Informatics Co Issue (down) Pages
Keywords Hospitals; Nurse managers; Advanced nursing practice; Nurse-patient relations; Care plans
Abstract A paper presenting the findings of a small research project involving a group of self-selected senior nurses of Wellington Hospital to explore the nature of nursing practice in the care and management of hospitalised patients and to formalise the language that would acknowledge its significance in the current effort of hospitals to define patient care pathways. The nature of hospital nursing practice was described in themes of a generic process of nurse-patient care that articulates a distinct specialism of hospital nursing, whatever the hospital department in which nurses hold positions.

Conducts a mixed-methods survey using both closed and open-ended questions to gauge nurses' confidence in applying the guidelines and their view of their relevance.

Title Rural contexts: Islands Type Book Chapter
Year 2008 Publication Jean Ross (Ed.), Rural nursing: Aspects of practice (pp. 19-30) Abbreviated Journal Ministry of Health publications page
Volume Issue (down) Pages
Keywords Rural nursing; Identity; Advanced nursing practice; Professional competence
Abstract This chapter explores the concept of islands particularly in relation to rurality, individual and community identities, and nursing. The author argues that all New Zealanders are islanders, and considers the implications of this on personal and community values, when they are shaped by geographic isolation and structural separateness. She explores commonalities between islanders and rural peoples in areas such as identity, isolation, and health, and outlines the impacts this has on rural nursing practice and competencies. A case study of a nurse on Stewart Island is briefly discussed.

Title The impact of tourism on rural nursing practice Type Book Chapter
Year 2008 Publication Jean Ross (Ed.), Rural nursing: Aspects of practice (pp. 137-43) Abbreviated Journal Ministry of Health publications page
Volume Issue (down) Pages
Keywords Rural nursing; Tourism; Advanced nursing practice; Occupational health and safety
Abstract This chapter reviews some effects of the growth of tourism, including adventure tourism and the numbers of tourists over 50, on rural nursing practice. Tourism contributes to socio-cultural change within a community, and health resources that previously met the needs of the local community may not meet the expectations of growing numbers of tourists. The transient visitor includes both the tourist and the seasonal worker, and has become a feature of rural nursing. Major effects on rural nurses include the increased volume of work, the advanced scope of practice required to meet more complex needs of visitors, and challenges to personal and professional safety.

It examines the establishment, development, funding and management of the service, along with the nursing practice and the healthcare people received. The book is a snapshot of nursing initiative and survival through a decade of change in health policy and service funding and delivery. The information was subsequently used to move the health centre service into the new paradigm of primary health care launched in the New Zealand Health Strategy.
