He pointed out that while large numbers of older people use the full spectrum of health care services, nurses with specialist knowledge and skills with this group tend to be found in only a narrow range of health care settings. He argued however that if this speciality is to advance, particularly through research, then it may be preferable for nursing researchers to concentrate in those settings where they already have a strong knowledge base, rather than spread themselves too thinly across other settings. This interesting proposition engendered lively debate at the conference, particularly in light of the expected large admission increase of older people across all health settings as the population ages. It also raised related issues about nursing research, such as how nursing can increase its research output ‘ in ’ nursing, rather than nurses having to leave direct practice to take up research positions, often in projects which do not contribute directly to the nursespecific skill base. The selection of recent articles reviewed below provides some examples of current ‘ in ’ nursing research, and draws from Australian gerontological and general nursing journals. Clare, J. and Hofmeyer, A. . Discharge planning and continuity of care for aged people : indicators of satisfaction and implications for practice, The Australian Journal of Advanced Nursing, , , –. This study examined discharge planning and continuity of care experienced by  participants aged  and over who had been recently discharged from an acute care setting to the domiciliary based Royal District Nursing Service. With the introduction of a capped, prospective type casemix funding to hospitals in Australia, where there is greater pressure for shorter lengths of stay, the study of this key transition is extremely important because appropriate discharge not only reduces readmission but ensures the continuity of care older people require to remain in the community. Through structured interviews, the study found that  per cent of the participants felt satisfied with their hospital care and were prepared for discharge. There were however,  per cent of participants who felt they were discharged too early because they were feeling weak, or anxious about coping at home. Factors contributing to discharge satisfaction included being involved in the decisions about which discharge services were required, assurance that these services would be  Ageing and Society, , , –.
