This paper describes how one inner city mental health service in a university teaching setting developed successful strategies to respond to these pressures. Strategies included: (a) merging two general hospital mental health services to pool resources; (b) allocating resources to innovative care delivery models consistent with provincial reforms and community needs; (c) fostering staff role changes, job transitions, and the development of new professional competencies to complement the innovative care delivery models; and (d) developing processes to evaluate the effects of these changes on client.</p>","PeriodicalId":77058,"journal":{"name":"Canadian journal of nursing administration","volume":"10 4","pages":"7-22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20378034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through a survey of 295 nursing preceptors in the province of Alberta, it was found that most preceptors rated their orientation to their role as adequate to very adequate, the greatest advantage was re-examining their knowledge and the most common problem was having a student with poor nursing skills. Only 30 percent used nursing frameworks. The implications are: nursing educators need to take more responsibility in the areas of preceptor and student orientation, assess the student, preceptor and agency prior to placement, and understand that the preceptor may not be using a nursing framework. Nurses working as preceptors do have the advantage of knowledge since working with students can be a form of continuing education.

One of these advances has been the implementation of multidisciplinary Acute Pain Services in the hospital setting to take on accountability for acute pain management.

It is inevitable in these times that some organizations, some structures, some units will become irrelevant in their existing forms, and should be fundamentally altered, or discontinued altogether. The need for such decisions is too often resisted, denied or avoided. Voluntary organizations and associations are particularly vulnerable to the forces of change and transition. These organizations are as likely as any other to need reexamination, and perhaps even more likely to \"miss the signals\" heralding a need for redesign. There aren't many examples of voluntary groups which have either discontinued their operations, or radically changed their mandates; the Toronto Association for Quality in Health Care (TAQHC) is one such organization. It is the authors' hope that by sharing TAQHC's decision and process for dissolution we may be able to assist other organizations facing similar challenges. It is further our belief that many of the lessons learned from this experience are applicable to situations other than those of voluntary organizations.</p>","PeriodicalId":77058,"journal":{"name":"Canadian journal of nursing administration","volume":"10 4","pages":"45-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20378038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is, however, a skepticism that the 'IDS movement' is just another in a series of fads that will come and go, without positively impacting the health care system. In this article, the authors provide arguments for why integration is critically required, an overview of types of integration, the qualities of a fully integrated system, and a discussion of the advantages and cautions to proceeding with IDS development. They conclude with the argument that--despite potential obstacles--the possible advantages of IDSs make it vital that we pursue integration.</p>","PeriodicalId":77058,"journal":{"name":"Canadian journal of nursing administration","volume":"10 3","pages":"90-111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20286554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The number of different drug classes ranged from 27 to 32 per unit and the potential for drug-drug interactions ranged from 47% to 66% of prescribed medications across the units.
