Abstract |
This conference paper outlines the nature of nursing research developing the distinct knowledge for nursing practice. It is presented as a cumulative process of knowledge development about health, practice and service delivery. Nursing research is illustrated by tracing a personal trajectory of research over 25 years that addressed questions relating to and derived from the practice of nursing. |

Abstract |
The author draws on her experience as the 'Paediatric Link Nurse' in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) within a metropolitan area in New Zealand to examine the proposed changes to ventilation practice. Currently, due to ventilator availability and medical and nursing practice, the usual mode of mechanical ventilation is volume-limited with pressure breath triggering. The author suggests this mode can compromise effective ventilation of paediatric patients, due to air leaks around the uncuffed endotracheal tubes of infants and small children. This air leak makes a guaranteed tidal volume almost impossible and can cause ventilator breath stacking and volutrauma. This can impact on the patient's comfort, sedation requirements and airway security, and affects how these patients are nursed. Thus the ventilation of these paediatric patients by the current volume-limiting mode may be not always be optimal for the infant/child. A new ventilator will be available to the unit, with a pressure-controlled, flow breath-triggering mode available. The author critiques the possibility of using this mode of ventilation, suggesting how this will impact on nursing practice in ICU, and of the education and knowledge that will be required. She suggests this change to ventilation practice may improve comfort and safety for the intubated child/infant, through the delivery of an optimal mode of ventilation. |

Abstract |
This article describes the effect of an education programme for Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) staff, developed as part of the roll out of revised clinical guidelines. In 2005, the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation released advisory statements and a revised universal algorithm for Infant, Child and Adult Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). Subsequently the New Zealand Resuscitation Council developed and disseminated revised guidelines for use within the New Zealand Healthcare System. Within the PICU the challenge of integrating new practice standards whilst ensuring compliance with CPR guidelines, was how to disseminate information to over 80 staff nurses working 12 hour shifts. Following implementation of an education programme, a survey completed by 20 staff members demonstrated that staff felt well supported with the introduction of the new CPR guidelines (90%) and confident that they understood the changes to the resuscitation guidelines (90%). Staff identified that the poster display (95%) and the mail sleeve “flyer” (80%) helped them understand the changes to CPR. |

Abstract |
The purpose of this article is to review evidence about nurse workload, staffing, skill mix, turnover, and organisational characteristics' effect on outcomes; discuss methodological considerations in this research; discuss research initiatives currently under way; review policy initiatives in different countries; and make recommendations where more research is needed. Overall, an understanding of the relationships among nurse staffing and organisational climate to patient safety and health outcomes is beginning to emerge in the literature. Little is known about nursing turnover and more evidence is needed with consistent definitions and control of underlying patient characteristics. Research and policy initiatives in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States are summarised. |

Abstract |
Explores the NZ context underpinning adequate specialist nurse workforce supply, contending that effective workforce planning would be supported by the
development of a single unified framework for specialist nursing practice in NZ, with the potential to support accurate data collection and to enable service providers to identify and plan transparent and transferable pathways for specialist nursing service provision and development. Argues that advanced practice nursing frameworks assist in increasing productivity through building an evidence base about advanced practice, enhancing consistency and equity of expertise, supporting a reduction in role duplication, and enabling succession planning and sustainability. |

Abstract |
The present paper draws on experiences and insights gained by a group of psychiatric nurse practice development facilitators whilst working with consumers, carers, clinicians and managers in the context of a practice development programme in a large metropolitan psychiatric hospital. The paper describes how the practice development facilitators were able to adapt techniques of motivational interviewing, commonly used in drug and alcohol treatment services, to help motivate change in an aged care setting. The lessons embedded within this experience are that people do want change, and that sustained change requires ownership and support. Practice development facilitators can assist in this process though the use of principles and strategies of motivational interviewing, which include increasing awareness of the need for change, supporting self-efficacy and managing resistance to change. |

Abstract |
This research study was designed to identify ways of enhancing patient safety during the administration of medications within the New Zealand context. The researchers employed a multi-method approach that included a survey using the Safety Climate Survey tool, focus groups and three clinical practice development groups. The authors conclude that the outcomes of this study indicate that practice development initiatives, such as the ones outlined in this project, can have a positive effect on nurses' perceptions of organisational safety, which in turn has been demonstrated to have a positive impact on patient safety. |

Abstract |
This paper describes an attempt at effecting change with specific relevance to the discharge planning of clients from a New Zealand inpatient mental health unit to a community setting. It explores how a team of community mental health nurses, practising in an urban/rural area, used the concepts of practice development to endeavour to bring about change while still retaining a client-centred focus. It describes how, in their enthusiasm, they embarked on the road to practice change without undertaking some of the essential ground work, Although they did not achieve all they set out to achieve, much was learnt in the process. In this paper, the authors outline their key learning points concerning the importance of engagement, communication, consistency and cooperation to the process and outcomes of practice change. |

Abstract |
This article presents a reconsideration of partnership between nurse and client as the core of the nursing discipline. It points to the significance of the relational nature of partnership, differentiating its features and form from the prevalent understanding associated with prescriptive interventions to achieve predetermined goals and outcomes. The meaning of partnership is presented within the nursing process where the caring presence of the nurse becomes integral to the health experience of the client as the potential for action. Exemplars provide illustration of this emerging view in practice and research. This is the first of a series of articles written as a partnership between nurse scholars from Iceland, New Zealand and the USA. The series draws on research projects that explored the philosophical, theoretical, ethical and practical nature of nursing practice and its significance for health and healthcare in a world of changing need. |
