  Title Innovation and effectiveness: Changing the scope of school nurses in New Zealand secondary schools Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Australian & New Zealand Journal of Public Health Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (down) 32 Issue 2 Pages 177-180  
  Keywords School nursing; Maori; Pacific peoples; Socioeconomic factors; Evaluation; Scope of practice  
  Abstract The aim of this research was to describe the changing role of school nurses in eight New Zealand secondary schools from low socio-economic areas with high Pacific Island and Maori rolls. An evaluation of a pilot addressing under-achievement in low-decile schools in Auckland(2002-05) was made. Annual semi-structured school nurse interviews and analysis of routinely collected school health service data were undertaken. Two patterns of school nurse operation were identified: an embracing pattern, where nurses embraced the concept of providing school-based health services; and a Band-Aid pattern, where only the basics for student health care were provided by school nurses. The researchers conclude that school nurses with an embracing pattern of practice provided more effective school-based health services. School health services are better served by nurses with structured postgraduate education that fosters the development of a nurse-practitioner role. The researchers go on to say that co-ordination of school nurses either at a regional or national level is required.
