  Title The scope of advancing nursing practice Type Journal Article
  Year 1998 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 13 Issue 3 Pages 13-24  
  Keywords (down) Nursing specialties; Nursing  
  Abstract An overview of the model of nursing practice and nurse roles derived through a programme of nursing research in the context of the changing New Zealand health system. The emphasis is on the complementary nature of the practice of family nurses taking a generic integrative service delivery hub role and the practice of other nurses advancing in specialist roles. Nursing care is presented as a professional, collective practice of registered nurses spread across all health service sectors and employment settings. Nurse roles are differentiated according to the interplay of two factors influencing the extent of practice autonomy the nurses assume (educationally supported) in responding to health need. A diagram depicts the interrelationship of competency and scope for the inclusive three different career trajectories of nurses advancing in practice. NOTE: This paper was published with an error in the title of the article (stated correctly on the journal contents page). An apology from the journal editor with an explanation of the importance of the use of the term ?advancing? and not ?advanced? was published in the subsequent issue (Nursing Praxis in NZ,14(1)).

  Title Quality in undergraduate nursing programmes: The role of Nursing Council Type Journal Article
  Year 2000 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 15 Issue 2 Pages 25-37  
  Keywords (down) Nursing Council of New Zealand; Nursing; Education; Nursing; Quality assurance  
  Abstract This paper looks broadly at issues to do with quality monitoring in higher education and considers the role and focus of the Nursing Council of New Zealand in the approval of and ongoing monitoring of undergraduate nursing degree programmes. It is suggested that the approach taken by the Nursing Council is accountability led where minimal attention is given to teaching and learning and actual graduate outcomes. This may lead to a mistaken belief that Nursing Council's monitoring focuses on quality or that the outcomes of their monitoring might contribute to programme enhancement. A shift to emphasise learning processes, students and continual improvement in order to enhance programme quality is proposed.

  Title A clinical audit of a nurse colposcopist: Colposcopy, cytology, histology correlation Type Journal Article
  Year 2005 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 21 Issue 3 Pages 13-23  
  Keywords (down) Nurse practitioners; Professional competence; Diagnosis; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract A clinical audit was undertaken to assess the diagnostic skills of the nurse colposcopist measuring colposcopy: histology: cytology correlation. At National Women's Health the first New Zealand nurse colposcopist training programme was developed in 2000. A retrospective audit of the colposcopy clinical records was performed during the nurse's training programme between July 2000 and March 2002. An 82% (82/100) histology: cytology: colposcopy correlation was achieved by the nurse in the third phase of her training programme. The results are comparable with other reported studies involving medical and nurse colposcopists. Expertise in colposcopy examination can be incorporated into the broader role of a Nurse Practitioner working in the area of women's health.
