Reports that international students cite poorer mental and physical health outcomes than domestic students, and that students with English as an additional language (EAL) experience culture shock, frustration and stress. Suggests that tertiary institutions need to supply targeted interventions for international students in language and cultural adaptation to promote positive acculturation. |

Abstract |
The objectives of this study were to explore the concept of the 'health-promoting school' in a specific New Zealand context; to develop and use appropriate research methods to assess a single low decile school in relation to World Health Organization health-promoting school components and checkpoints; to work with the school community to identify health issues; and, to record external and internal changes that could impact on school health over a finite time period. Case study was selected as the most appropriate method to collect both quantitative and qualitative evidence with the aim of providing a clear understanding of the particular case. Results confirmed that the school was working appropriately within the scope of their educational practice to provide a health-promoting school environment for the school community. Gaps and issues identified included an element of talking past each other between the cultures of the education organisation and the nominated health service provider respectively that contributed to a lack of appropriate and accessible health service delivery for the school population. Teaching staff considered that they had insufficient access to health knowledge, and input from health service staff did not meet health education requirements for the school. Staff preference for increased school nurse involvement was not realised. The consequence was that two outside agencies (KiwiCan and Life Education Trust) delivered the bulk of the Health and Physical Education curriculum which resulted in a degree of fragmentation of health education for students. The issues that were identified demonstrated that health services in the area were not satisfactorily meeting the needs of the community and were not addressing the health inequities for the predominantly Pacific Island and Maori students and of their families that formed the school community. The researcher concluded that a full-service school approach should be considered by the school and the local district health board as one way to overcome the current lack of access to health services for the school community. Assertions included the potential integration of locally available services by a school-based nurse coordinator supported by health professionals (nurse practitioner and Pacific Island Community Health Worker) and social workers. The vision included professionals working within their professional scopes of practice as part of a Primary Health Organisation with the aim of appropriately addressing the health inequities experienced by the school population. |

Abstract |
This study uncovers the experience of being ethical from the perspective of pre-registration nursing students. Using the qualitative methodology of phenomenology, specifically that outlined by van Manen, it seeks to show how students act ethically within everyday practice. Providing nursing care is an ethically charged undertaking and despite ethics taking an increasingly important place in nursing education, the author suggests that few studies show the contextual nature of ethical practice from the perspective of students. This study aims to partly redress this situation. In this study the author has interpreted the experiences of twelve pre-registration students. Using seventeen stories shared by the student participants, the author's personal understandings and literature, the meaning of being ethical has been illuminated. Three themes emerged from the interpretation. These include 'keeping things 'nice'', 'being true to yourself' and 'being present'. This thesis asserts that the overarching theme within these themes is that of 'being constrained and enabled'. Being constrained shows the experiences of students as they live through the tensions of being and doing as they strive to be ethical. Being enabled shows the experience of self-determination. Finally the study maintains that the shaping of ethical practice for undergraduate students may be enhanced when their reality is positioned and valued within educational processes. |

Abstract |
This dissertation was written to promote the author's understanding of the development of drug calculation competency in the undergraduate student nurse. It explores and critiques the literature surrounding the topic and examines the differing teaching methods that are currently used to promote this competency. Findings from the literature were compared to her experience of teaching drug dosage calculation competency to second year undergraduate nursing degree students. This dissertation suggests that drug dosage calculation may be an ongoing problem for nursing students not only during their course of study but also post registration. It appears that age and educational background may be factors in determining whether or not the student will truly master the concept. Although highly debated, it does appear that the use of a calculator assisted the nursing students within the author's class with their arithmetic operation. However, problems associated with conceptual understanding remain notable. The recommendations from this dissertation include the use of varied methods of instruction, integration of both the theory and practical components and the possible use of the dimensional analysis method in the teaching of drug dosage calculation. The author suggests that further research is required both locally within the School of Nursing where she is employed and nationally to fully examine the extent of this issue. Research which is not only focused on the student's calculation ability and its progression over the course of their study but which also allows the School to collate data on age, educational background, culture and learning style would allow lecturers to gain greater insight into student competency, progress and learning needs. She goes on to say that the continued ongoing exploration of her own practice utilising action research is also required as this would assist her in meeting the needs of students and lead to an overall improvement in her practice. |
