摘要:

AbstractThis paper describes the therapeutic potential of nursing practice as healing work, by addressing the growing trend in nursing to consider how the work of nursing and the nurse-client relationship are potentially of a healing nature. The work of nursing, presencing, concern and authenticity are discussed, before a redefinition of healing is offered. To exemplify nursing as healing work, some stories are shared from nurses working in different work settings. These stories are of human interest, especially in terms of their healing outcomes.

摘要:

AbstractThe term nursing diagnosis is constructed in male, medical language. As such, it is proposed that it has no legitimacy in nursing discourse as it is antithetical to notions claimed foremost in nursing’s ontology. It is also posited that the term‘nursing diagnosis’, whilst reinforcing biomedicine, has little or no meaning to many nurses, is not understood by patients and has no justifiable place in health care discourse.

摘要:

AbstractIn Australia, there is a paucity of published studies which investigate the role of health assessment in nursing practice. The purpose of the following study was to establish whether registered nurses perceived health assessment to be a central component of their nursing practice. A pre- and post-test design was used to evaluate if any changes were evident in perceived nursing knowledge and skill level following an educational program. The target population was all registered nurses enrolled in a health assessment subject offered in a post-registration Bachelor of Nursing course. A paired, two-tailed t-test showed statistically significant changes in the registered nurses’attitudes towards health assessment. In addition, statistically significant changes were demonstrated in the group’s perceived comfortableness with health assessment knowledge and skill level. The results of this project have been used to guide and shape nursing curricula in the area of teaching health assessment.

摘要:

AbstractNurses in this study manage the challenges of meeting the unique needs of adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF) by fostering‘significant relationships’with them. These relationships are characterised by friendship, reciprocity, choice, involvement and‘being there’; while shared histories, dealing with a protracted illness trajectory, and nursing within a chronic/terminal dichotomy emerge as the contextual aspects. The relationships are perceived as beneficial and mutually rewarding. However, such implications as the line between professional and personal involvement, the adolescents’vulnerability and the resources and support needs of nurses must be considered.

摘要:

AbstractThis paper describes the development of a new framework for nursing assessment and management of incontinence using action research (Gibb, O’Brien, Bradford and Curtis 1993). The authors worked with nurses and residents in a large extended care setting—clarifying their current understandings of continence issues and looking at ways of improving incontinence management. This process led to the development of a model for assessment and management of incontinence.
