Title Balancing rights and duties in 'life and death' decision making involving children: A role for nurses? Type Journal Article
Year 2001 Publication (down) Nursing Ethics Abbreviated Journal
Volume 8 Issue 5 Pages 397-408
Keywords Parents and caregivers; Children; Ethics; Clinical decision making; Nurse-family relations; Chronically ill
Abstract This article examines a growing number of cases in New Zealand in which parents and guardians are required to make life and death ethical decisions on behalf of their seriously ill child. Increasingly, nurses and other practitioners are expected to more closely inform, involve and support the rights of parents or guardians in such situations. Differing moral and ethical values between the medical team and parents or guardians can lead to difficult decision making situations. The article analyses the moral parameters, processes, outcomes and ethical responses that must be considered when life and death ethical decisions involving children are made. It concludes with a recommendation that nurses should be recognised as perhaps the most suitable of all health care personnel when careful mediation is needed to produce an acceptable moral outcome in difficult ethical situations.

Title The paediatric nurse and the child in hospital Type Journal Article
Year 1974 Publication (down) New Zealand Nursing Journal Abbreviated Journal
Volume 67 Issue 11 Pages
Keywords Paediatric nursing; Nurse-family relations; Nurse managers
Abstract A paper intended to inform paediatric nurses and influence service policy and management, adapted from a presentation at an inservice education study day for nurses at Wellington Hospital. The paper grew out of the findings of a small research project undertaken by the author as part of nursing practice in a paediatric ward of Wellington Hospital. The observations of the stress in the experience of infants and parents and the ambiguities inherent in the relationships between parents and nurses were the basis for arguing for changes in nursing practice and ward management.

Title Relating to families through their seasons of life: An indigenous practice model Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication (down) Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue 5 Pages 18-3
Keywords Parents and caregivers; Nursing models; Nurse-family relations; Communication
Abstract In this article the authors introduce an alternative way that nurses can be with families, using a relational process that can enhance nurses' responses when working with those transitioning to parenthood. Seasons of Life, a framework adapted from the Maori health model He Korowai Oranga, emerged from practice to offer a compassionate and encouraging stance, while at the same time respecting each family's realities and wishes. The model allows the exploration of the transition to parenthood within a wellness model, and takes a strengths-based approach to emotional distress. This approach provides a sense of “normality”, rather than of pathology, for the emotions experienced by new parents. The specific issues men may face are discussed, where despite recent culture change that allows men a more nurturing parental role, there is still no clear understanding of how men articulate their sense of pleasure or distress at this time. Practitioners are encouraged to examine their own assumptions, values and beliefs, and utilise tools such as reflective listening, respect, insight and understanding. The most significant aspect of relationship between nurse and parents is not the outcome, but how nurses engage with families. Examples from practice will demonstrate some of the differing ways this relational process framework has been effective.
