  Title Counteracting stigma in sexual health care settings Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Insight: The Journal of the American Society of Ophthalmic Registered Nurses Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (up) 6 Issue 1 Pages  
  Keywords Sexual and reproductive health; Nursing specialties; Attitude to health  
  Abstract Sexual health clinics and the people who visit them commonly face stigma. Sexually transmitted infections have historically been used to divide people into “clean” and “dirty”. A grounded theory study of the work of sixteen nurses in six sexual health services in New Zealand was undertaken to explore the management of sexual health care. The study uncovered the psychological impact of negative social attitudes towards the people who visit sexual health services and to the staff who work there. Sexual health nurses manage the results of stigma daily and reveal in their interactions with clients a process of destigmatisation.

  Year 2001 Publication International Journal of Nursing Practice Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (up) 7 Issue 2 Pages 104-108

Reference is made to related literature, together with consideration of the implications associated with this trend. This issue has international significance, with the increased use of casual staff being widely recognised. A New Zealand perspective is included, with the provision of nursing care at Christchurch Hospital presented to illustrate certain aspects of the discussion. The impact of changing health-care systems and increased emphasis on efficiency and accountability are identified. This change to workplace practice will inevitably affect nursing; possible future developments are considered.

  Title International perspective: The development of the advanced role of rural nurses in New Zealand Type Journal Article
  Year 1999 Publication Australian Journal of Rural Health Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (up) 7 Issue 4 Pages 253-257  
  Keywords Nursing; Education; Rural nursing; Advanced nursing practice  
  Abstract This paper offers an insight into the development of the advanced role of rural nursing practice in New Zealand. The concept of advanced nursing practice is discussed within the context of the interdisciplinary healthcare team. It is argued that as nurses take on advanced practice, it is essential they receive appropriate clinical and theoretical skills to ensure they are in a position to provide competent and clinically safe, effective health care in an ethical, efficient manner. A description of a survey, undertaken by the author, studying rural nurses' skills provides the recommendation for the development of an appropriate postgraduate course at Masters level, designed specifically for primary rural nurses for the advanced role.
