Abstract:
This thesis is primarily based upon unstructiared interviews with nurses about their experiences of and attitudes towards nursing the dying. The main focus of the thesis is upon nursing the long term dying within a general hospital as seen from the nurse's viewpoint. The research is based upon the work of Glaser and Strauss which identified patterns of communication between health care workers and dying patients as being crucial to the experiences of the dying, and is broadly supportive of their findings. Many of the nurses interviewed expressed a preference for nursing dying patients who were

Abstract:
Compassion fatigue (CF) and burnout (BO) in the novice nurse population can negatively affect the organization, patient safety, patient satisfaction, and the individual. Novice nurses are susceptible to the development of CF and BO due to a lack of knowledge about the causes and the stress experienced as the novice nurse transitions to practice. The purpose of this staff education project was to fill the gap in practice by creating awareness about CF and BO during the nurse orientation process and by providing prevention strategies.

Abstract:
Situation awareness (SA) has been developed in occupations other than nursing to improve decision making (DM) for optimal performance and outcomes. There are some studies exploring the use of situation awareness by nurses in simulated settings but few have examined SA in clinical practice. Because of this paucity of evidence nurses’ use of situation awareness in practice is not fully understood. Studies examining decision making by nurses have indicated that clinical decisions arising from a lack of awareness of patient needs in busy, complex clinical environments can compromise care.

Nurses are largely unaware of the problems of night-shift-nurse sleepiness and available strategies to manage night-shift sleepiness.

“Mindfulness gets thrown around all the time, but what does it actually mean in practice?” I interpreted this question posed by a nurse in this inquiry, as a statement of curiosity and concern. As conceptualizations, practices, and programs of mindfulness continue to diversify, there is a call to understand mindfulness as a socially and culturally embedded practice. Some critiques suggest mindfulness is moving too far from its ethical orientation and becoming instrumentalized as a tool. Therefore, the pervasive presence of ‘mindfulness’ across work and educational settings renders the question

They are usually unable to eat or drink and are fed through a nasogastric or naso-enteric tube. With the priority being resuscitation and life support, normal physiological functions and requirements can be over ridden, one of which is bowel function. There are no set guidelines nationally recognised for the management of the bowel. But most institutions have a bowel protocol in order to facilitate and promote the

Abstract:
The research question the researcher set out to answer was: How do student nurses experience learning in the clinical field?
