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 |
The author explores possible approaches to the ethical dilemma confronting nurses of critically ill premature infants with an uncertain or futile outcome despite aggressive neonatal intensive care. A case history illustrates the issues. The morality of nursing decisions based on deontological and utilitarian principles is examined, as are the concepts of beneficence and non-maleficence. A fusion of virtue ethics and the ethic of care is suggested as appropriate for ethical decision-making in the neonatal intensive care environment. |

Abstract |
The author investigates the premises that form the basis of nursing practice in acute care. Assumptions about patients and caregiving are often at odds with each other. The origins of these tenets are mapped from Florence Nightingale through to present nursing theorists. Overlapping areas of nursing and medical care in the acute care setting are examined, and the conflict that can arise between traditional nursing care and the expected medical nursing role is examined. He argues that the challenge for acute care nurses is to find a balance between normative nursing and the medical model. |

Abstract |
The author presents her experience investigating the incidence of post-anaesthetic shaking in the recovery room ward, and develops a clinical tool for its treatment. Several theories about post-anaesthetic shaking are examined. The cases of 1296 patients who had major regional or general anaesthetics over four consecutive months in the previous year are studied. The incidence of post-anaesthetic shaking and correlating core body temperature readings with post-anaesthetic shaking are examined. A protocol for reducing/treating post-anaesthetic shaking is developed on the basis of the findings of the study. |

Abstract |
This paper describes how a new framework for clinical nursing education was introduced at Counties Manukau District Health Board. The project was initiated in response to the significant legislative and post registration nursing education changes within New Zealand. The journey of change has been a significant undertaking, and has required clear management, strong leadership, perseverance and understanding of the organisation's culture. The approach taken to managing the change had four stages, and reflects various change management models. The first stage, the identification process, identified the impetus for change. Creating the vision is the second stage and identified what the change would look like within the organisation. To ensure success and to guide the process of change a realistic and sustainable vision was developed. Implementing the vision was the third stage, and discusses the communication and pilot phase of implementing the nursing education framework. Stage four, embedding the vision, explores the process and experiences of changing an education culture and embedding the vision into an organisation. The paper concludes by discussing the importance of implementing robust, consistent, strategic and collaborative processes that reflect and evaluate best educational nursing practice. |

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. |
