Abstract |
The health status of indigenous peoples is a global concern with mortality and hospitalisation data indicating that the health of indigenous groups falls below that of other ethnic groups within their countries. The preliminary findings of grounded theory research project undertaken with a group of 23 New Zealand Maori women about their health priorities and 'mainstream' health service needs provide the foundation for an exploration of issues impacting on the health status of indigenous people. The role that nursing and nurses have in improving access and use of health services by indigenous people is discussed. Strategies are suggested that nurses can utilise within their practice when working with local indigenous groups. |

Abstract |
An analytical tool of Force Field Analysis was used to identify and describe forces influencing the development of innovative roles, including the nurse practitioner role, in primary health care nursing. At the commencement of the study an initial analysis of research, literature and policy identified forces driving or restraining the development of innovative roles. A mixed research method of surveys and focus group interviews with key stakeholders, namely nurses in innovative roles, general practitioners and nurse leaders, was then used to identify factors influencing development within the Northland District Health Board. Descriptive statistics and interpretative methods were used to analyse the data. A final analysis enabled a picture of forces influencing innovative role development to be presented. Driving forces reflected international trends and were strongly influenced by economics and a political imperative to reconfigure health care services towards a primary health focus. The Treaty of Waitangi was also a key influence. Driving forces had greatest impact on the development of new roles. Forces were identified as drives towards cost-effective evidence-based health care (effective services), equity for Maori, response to local needs and workforce reorganisation. The major forces restraining the development of innovative roles were reinforced by attitudes, customs and support systems. These forces were identified as poor professional identity and support, an outdated nursing image, inadequate education and training and slow transition from traditional practices and structures (tradition). These forces had a negative influence on support for innovative roles. Promotion of kaupapa Maori, involvement of the local community, local Maori and nursing in decision-making and promotion of a team culture have the potential to support further development of innovative roles. Political ideology and the Treaty of Waitangi will continue to be major influences directed through policy and the contracting and funding process. |

Abstract |
A research portfolio submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Nursing, The University of Auckland, 2009
This paper is a report of a study seeking to understand the experience of New Zealand rural dwelling Mäori clients with end-stage renal disease who receive haemodialysis. End stage renal disease (ESRD) is related to lifestyle, genetic factors and environment, and Mäori are at higher risk of renal disease which results of need for renal replacement therapy to sustain their lives. Dialysis clients are a group of ?silent? clients under the care of the dominant health professionals. Adherence with therapeutic regimes has been a main issue for health care professionals and service delivery, as it directly contributes to the efficacy of the treatment and cost effectiveness. Mäori clients? experience of living with haemodialysis has not been explored. Although there are a number of studies describing the experience of patients living on dialysis so far, no studies have yet focused specifically on the experience of Mäori clients towards their renal replacement therapy. The continual demands of dialysis treatment are significant and given the high proportion of Mäori having dialysis. It is timely to explore the experience of Mäori clients and their family/whänau in order to understand the need for quality of care and to promote Mäori health outcomes in chronic kidney disease management |

Abstract |
This research aims to design and test the feasibility of an intervention promoting smoking cessation, and reducing smoking relapse, among Māori nurses who smoke. It is being conducted in two phases. Phase one, a national web-based survey, conducted in December 2012, explored the views of Māori nurses (smokers, ex-smokers and non-smokers) regarding smoking. This paper reports on the analysis of qualitative responses from 410 nurses and nursing students identifying as Māori who completed an online survey. Five themes were identified: beliefs about smoking; ?for our tamariki?; personal stories of quitting; dissatisfaction with current approaches; and plans for future strategies. The findings confirm that nurses who smoke may experience feelings of conflict, and regard their behaviour as inconsistent with their role as nurses and health promoters. Nurses who smoke must be supported to become, and to stay, smokefree. Tailored Māori-specific cessation initiatives are needed. |
