Abstract |
Argues that undergraduate nurse education contributes to the problem of too few nurses choosing to work in aged care, by constructing working in aged care as a lower-status or less valuable area of work than other health-care areas. Examines the issue using Foucauldian discourse analysis to explore the dominant discourses being deployed in relation to clinical experience in aged care. Collects data through semi-structured interviews with 10 senior academic staff members from NZ tertiary institutions. Analyses interview data to reveal how a 'nurse education discourse' and a 'work-ready discourse' were shaping perceptions of aged care as a clinical experience in a variety of ways. Suggests that how and why aged care is utilised as a space to learn a range of nursing skills has the unintended effect of devaluing and discouraging employment in aged care settings. |

Abstract |
Argues that the Fundamentals of Care (FOC) conceptual framework is essential for nursing schools to teach and on which to assess nursing students for clinical competency. Provides a national overview of undergraduate pre-registration nursing curricula in NZ, exploring what and how schools of nursing teach and assess FoC. Distributes a cross-sectional descriptive questionnaire to course coordinators between 2019 and 2020, revealing variations in how FOC is taught and the lack of standardisation in course design. Highlights the opportunity for the Nursing Council to develop a national, evidenced-based FOC educational strategy. |

Abstract |
Traces the origins of gerontology knowledge among student nurses while considering how people designated as older are perceived by the student nurse, and the effects of functional decline and biomedical discourses on their views of older people when on clinical placement in aged residential care (ARC) facilities. Hghlights the contested domain of gerontology knowledge to generate dialogue about how older age is actually represented in student nurse education, as the current iteration perpetuates stereotypical assumptions about older age. |

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. |

Abstract |
This dissertation is a review of evidence underpinning the recommendations for pressure ulcer prevention from four national guidelines frequently used as a foundation for best practice. The focus is on grade-1 pressure ulcer prevention for “at risk” patients, in the acute environment. Rationale: Prevention is better than cure. While preventive strategies maybe effective are they supported by evidence? Results: The strongest evidence for best practice appears to be limited to an established fact that standard hospital mattresses should at least be replaced by high specification foam, pressure reducing mattresses for patients “at risk” or vulnerable to pressure ulcer development. Repositioning, skin assessment, skin protection and maintenance, traditionally the basis of pressure ulcer prevention, appear to have a paucity of strong supportive evidence. Further evidence is emerging on clinically important areas such as erythema and mattresses. Implications for Nursing: The organisational or ministerial support for education of the multidisciplinary team, especially nurses in risk assessment and prevention strategies. This support is required both in release time and finances for education and in adequate funding for preventive strategies. The author concludes that strong evidence to support the recommendations of the guidelines appears to remain limited, particularly in the acute environment. Expert opinion would appear to remain the basis for current best practice for pressure ulcer prevention. The volume and consistency of this evidence worldwide is substantial and adds validity to the recommendations. Best practice includes firstly risk assessment, skin assessment, maintenance of skin temperature, moisture, and condition, and the importance of repositioning, in conjunction with an appropriate support surface. However gaps remain in the supportive evidence in many of these fields. Advances in practice include pressure relief or reduction considerations for all surfaces the patients encounter. There appears to be no gold standard for prevention of pressure ulcer development. |

Abstract |
This article reports a study that sought to understand the experience of a group of Caucasian men with end stage renal failure managing their own haemodialysis therapy in their homes. The study used a critical interpretive methodology. The renal setting was critically viewed as a specialised health care context constituted by several interrelated discourses. Although established by the dominant professional discourse, it also includes a number of others, in particular an obscure client discourse that is a response to the dominant discourse. Initially, participants' own interpretations of their individual experiences were outlined. These were then collectively reinterpreted by contextualising them in terms of the critical view of the renal setting, in order to discern their own views as renal clients that were obscured by the language and ideas of the dominant discourse with which they had been enculturated. From an analysis of the set of accounts derived from interviews with six participants, four concerns of the renal client discourse were identified. These concerns were: (1) suffering from continuing symptoms of end stage renal failure and dialysis; (2) limitations resulting from negotiating dialysis into their lifestyle; (3) ongoingness and uncertainty of life on dialysis; and (4) altered relationship between autonomy and dependence inherent in living on dialysis. One specific implication of this study is that the distinctive potential of the nursing role in renal settings lies beyond the performance of a range of technical tasks, in addressing the experience of people living on dialysis, described here as the concerns of the renal client discourse. |
