  Title Clinical supervision for general nurses in NZ: the imperative of finding a way forward -- nurses perceptions of professional/clinical supervision Type Book Whole
  Year 2012 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 63 p.  
  Keywords Clinical supervision; Professional supervision; Documentation  
  Abstract Focuses on two broad themes: perceptions and attitudes of general nurses in in-patient hospital settings towards clinical supervision and how they have found such support to be of benefit to themselves or their practice; organisational documentation policies and procedures available to nurses in order to understand their contribution to, and valuing of, clinical supervision. Seeks to discover whether there is evidence of other factors influencing the provision of, or access to, clinical supervision by general nurses, which influences attitudes and perceptions.

  Title Triage codes: A predictor of nursing care time in the emergency department Type
  Year 2005 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords Emergency nursing; Time factors  
  Abstract This thesis explores triage code as a predictor of direct nursing care time, thus its potential usefulness in a model for calculating and allocating nurse requirements in emergency departments. A framework for nursing work is proposed. This framework is based on the works of O'Brien-Pallas, Irvine, Peereboom, and Murray (1997) and Houser (2003). It suggests that the structures of environmental complexity, nursing characteristics, patient nursing complexity, and patient medical condition and severity, impact on the processes of direct and indirect nursing care to affect patient outcomes. A prospective, non-experimental study was undertaken to examine the relationship between direct nursing care time and triage code. Six potential confounding variables were selected for this study: length of stay, age, ethnicity, sex, complaint type, and discharge category. Data were collected for 261 visits over a three day period in one New Zealand emergency department. Patient visits averaged 200 minutes. The mean direct nursing care time per visit was 49 minutes. On average, patients with more urgent triage codes, longer length of stay, or who were not discharged, received more direct nursing care. The model developed predicted 49% of variation in direct nursing care time (p < .05) related to triage code (16%), length of stay (31%) and disposition category (2%). The author suggests that further exploration of the proposed framework has potential to develop a model allowing managers to identify nurse staffing required for optimal nursing care in emergency departments.

  Title Budgeting for nursing services Type
  Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The author suggests that a nursing service would benefit by using the concept of budgets and budgeting control, in terms of management accounting and its applicability to a hospital based nursing service. The main objective of this study was to suggest a possible line of approach towards the construction of an information system designed to yield reliable and useful data, without which there can be little hope of any truly effective guide to the development of nursing services.

  Title Involuntary unemployment: A grounded theory analysis of the experience of five nurses Type
  Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This study outlines the use of grounded theory strategy to analyse the experience of nurses who become involuntarily unemployed. It then proceeds to develop a theoretical framework that explain the common patterns in this experience. Using the Glasser and Strauss (1967) Grounded Theory approach, empirical observation was undertaken expressly for the purpose of generating insights which may lead to new understanding of the subject of this study. Using two inter-related procedures known as theoretical sampling and constant comparative analysis, data is systematically collected, coordinated and subjected to an ongoing analysis. Theory is then 'grounded ' in the real world. The study involved in depth interviewing of five mid-career nurses who were involuntarily unemployed. The data was transcribed and analysed to yield theoretical concepts and categories that were integrated into propositions to explain common patterns. It will be argued that this experience is a grieving process that is more that just grieving a job loss. It is proposed that there are three phases – 1. Personal devastation due to losses experienced.. 2. A period of healing. 3. Recovery and re-establishment of the 'new' person.

  Title Towards partnerships in praxis Type
  Year 1997 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library, Waiarik  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This action research project explored the factors that helped or hindered student nurse clinical learning from the perspective of nurse educators, practitioners and students. Participant analysis of their own discussions identified both common and disparate views regarding the student's learning experience. Researcher analysis identified five practical and three organizational issues that influenced the development of more effective partnerships between these three stakeholder groups that would facilitate student clinical learning. The practical issues were how to deal with the 'problem' people in the learning process, how to clarify and develop the various roles in the learning context, how to generate more effective communication, how to respond more effectively to the impact of the changing environment, and how to maximize 'moments of learning'. The organizational issues were identified as the schisms between the disparate personal and organizational cultures that direct the way educators, practitioners and students, perceive, think, feel and act
