  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 (up) 2 Pages

  Title Win-win-win: Collaboration advances critical care practice Type Journal Article
  Year 2002 Publication Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue (up) 2/3 Pages 223-228  
  Keywords Nursing specialties; Rural nursing; Nursing; Education; Curriculum  
  Abstract This paper provides an overview of the structure and processes of an eighteen month, distance education course focused on developing advanced practice in the context of critical care nursing. Within the framework of a Master of Health Science, the postgraduate certificate (critical care nursing) was developed as a collaboration between Auckland University of Technology and two regional health providers. Students enrol in science and knowledge papers concurrently then, in the second half of the course, are supported within their practice environment to acquire advanced clinical skills and to analyse, critique and develop practice within their specialty. This course is set against a background of increasing interest in education post registration. The acquisition of highly developed clinical capabilities requires a combination of nursing experience and education. This requires collaboration between clinicians and nurse educators, and approaches to address accessibility of relevant educational opportunities for nurses outside the country's main centres.

  Title Law and policy in relation to the use of seclusion in psychiatric hospitals in Australia and New Zealand Type Journal Article
  Year 2002 Publication Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue (up) 2/3 Pages 136-145  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; Law and legislation; Policy; Patient rights; Cross-cultural comparison  
  Abstract This paper discusses legal issues associated with the seclusion of acutely disturbed patients in psychiatric hospitals in Australia and New Zealand. There continues to be great variation in opinion and operational definition as to whether seclusion is a medical treatment, nursing intervention and management tool, or merely a form of situational restraint. Reflecting this lack of clarity, mental health acts and policies concerning the regulation and practice of seclusion lack consistency and focus across geographical boundaries and jurisdictions. Australian and New Zealand legislation and institutional policy is discussed in order to shed light on the contemporary issues highlighted by this controversial nursing practice. The authors note that mental health professionals must continue to review the practice of seclusion and to actively promote the use of acceptable alternatives. In addition nurses and other mental health professionals have a responsibility to understand current legislation and policy frameworks and to influence change where this is necessary to ensure the best practice possible in their clinical area.
