  Title Pedagogical possibilities for nursing Type
  Year 1999 Publication Abbreviated Journal University of Otago Library  
  Volume Issue (up) Pages  
  Keywords Nursing; Nursing philosophy; Feminist critique  
  Abstract This thesis is about what the author terms the 'invisible bodies of nursing'. The physical body of the nurse, the body of practice, and the body of knowledge. The physical body of the nurse is absent in most nursing literature, it is sometimes inferred but seldom discussed. The contention is that the physical body of the nurse is invisible because it is tacit. Much nursing practice is invisible because it is perceived by many nurses to be inarticulable and is carried out within a private discourse of nursing, silently and secretly. Nursing knowledge is invisible because it is not seen as being valid or authoritative or sanctioned as a legitimate discourse by the dominant discourse. These issues are approach through an evolving 'specular' lens. Luce Irigaray's philosophy of the feminine and her deconstructing and reconstructing of psychoanalytic structures for women inform this work. Michel Foucault's genealogical approach to analysing discourses is utilized, along with Maurice Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology. Nursing's struggle for recognition is ongoing. The author discusses strategies that nurses could use to make themselves more 'visible' in healthcare structures. The exploration of the embodied self of the nurse and through this the embodied knowledge of nursing is nascent.

The research data identified the burgeoning impact on public health nurses of such care, and found their role to be primarily assessment and advocacy.

  Title Atrocity tales: The language of terrorism in nursing Type
  Year 2004 Publication Whitireia Nursing Journal Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 11 Issue (up) Pages 27-35  
  Keywords Gender; Male nurses; Culture  
  Abstract In this paper, the author explores the concept of 'professional terrorism'. He exposes discrimination against male nurses as being a form of professional terrorism, primarily as it is enacted through use of language. 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.

The implications for nursing practice are explored.

  Title Budgeting for nursing services Type
  Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal

  Keywords  
  Abstract The author suggests that a nursing service would benefit by using the concept of budgets and budgeting control, in terms of management accounting and its applicability to a hospital based nursing service. The main objective of this study was to suggest a possible line of approach towards the construction of an information system designed to yield reliable and useful data, without which there can be little hope of any truly effective guide to the development of nursing services.

  Title Involuntary unemployment: A grounded theory analysis of the experience of five nurses Type
  Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue (up) Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This study outlines the use of grounded theory strategy to analyse the experience of nurses who become involuntarily unemployed. It then proceeds to develop a theoretical framework that explain the common patterns in this experience. Using the Glasser and Strauss (1967) Grounded Theory approach, empirical observation was undertaken expressly for the purpose of generating insights which may lead to new understanding of the subject of this study. Using two inter-related procedures known as theoretical sampling and constant comparative analysis, data is systematically collected, coordinated and subjected to an ongoing analysis. Theory is then 'grounded ' in the real world. The study involved in depth interviewing of five mid-career nurses who were involuntarily unemployed. The data was transcribed and analysed to yield theoretical concepts and categories that were integrated into propositions to explain common patterns. It will be argued that this experience is a grieving process that is more that just grieving a job loss. It is proposed that there are three phases – 1. Personal devastation due to losses experienced.. 2. A period of healing. 3. Recovery and re-establishment of the 'new' person.
