摘要:

AbstractNurses world wide have regarded the law as a powerful tool of professional reform, and have historically looked to the law (its system and processes) to enhance and advance their professional goals. Nevertheless, the nursing profession still has not achieved its ultimate goals. To this day, nurses lack legitimated status as autonomous professionals, and are still burdened with enormous responsibility without the authority to match it.Given that the law is such a powerful tool of professional reform, the question must be asked at this point of nursing history: Why has the nursing professionnotreceived the legal remedies it has sought in its quest to gain legitimated freedom from the subordinate and oppressed position it has historically occupied? In this paper, an attempt will be made to answer this question.

摘要:

AbstractExit Interviews, also known as termination or separation interviews, are conducted in some hospitals and other health service agencies as a routine procedure when staff are ending their period of employment. The major purpose of these interviews is to elicit data regarding the employee’s working experience in the organization and hence identify those factors that enhance retention of staff, for example, job satisfaction, study opportunity, challenging milieu, and those that are contributory factors to the decision to resign, such as, dissatisfaction due to poor standards of care becoming the norm and lack of autonomy in planning and implementing nursing care. As a recent study indicated, the hierarchical level of the Exit Interviewer could have a significant effect on the amount and accuracy of the data so obtained. While applicable to all departments of a facility, comments herein are largely concerned with nursing and are based on a thesis by the author.

摘要:

AbstractCaring for the health of children is a relatively modern concept. Furthermore, recognition of children’s need for relief from pain is only just beginning to emerge and remains a subject of controversy. Sadly, in the past, children’s pain was viewed as a diagnostic aid rather than an entity in its own right. This paper outlines historical perspectives which contributed, not only to the slow evolution of paediatric nursing, but in particular, to recognition of children’s pain as an entity. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of a sound understanding of children’s developmental stages as fundamental to accurate assessment of children’s special needs which can only be determined through effective communication. Fundamentally, as children remain a somewhat voiceless, powerless minority group, health professionals are challenged not only to provide care, but to ensure that the care they give is indeed meeting the unique needs of each and every individual child.

摘要:

AbstractQuestionnaire data was collected from a sample of 306 student nurses from three institutions (university, college of advanced education and hospital) during the second week of the first year of their course, and from 189 students from two of the institutions (university and CAE) at the conclusion of their first year of education. The main sources of stress on both occasions were essentially the same for women and men, and for students from the different institutions. These concerns focussed on study-related issues, the emotional demands of nursing, the use of technical equipment, interpersonal interaction, and lack of time for family and personal pursuits. It was suggested that these concerns could be reduced through the introduction of education in study skills, the provision of the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with technical equipment, and the development of social skills.
