These instruments are designed at a ratio level of measurement. This would be valid only if nursing practice existed at a similar level.

In psychiatric nursing, it is essential to consider the nurse as well as the client, and to assess the current phase of the relationship.

Vulnerable in a safe place: institutional elder abuse. 在安全的地方脆弱:机构虐待老年人。

Besides inherent difficulties in operationalizing definitions of elder abuse, it is well-recognized that under-reporting and methodological problems in research studies have created a knowledge base that is far from definitive. There is, however, much that can be gleaned from the literature and translated into clinical practice. Environmental factors, including both interpersonal and institutional dimensions, may contribute significantly to risk for elder abuse. A number of client characteristics such as physical impairment, social isolation, cognitive status, and aggression also appear to increase the potential for elder abuse. While professional caregivers have not yet been extensively studied in terms of their role in elder abuse, burnout, lack of training, excessive workload demands, and other stressors may be implicated as factors contributing to abusive behaviour.</p>","PeriodicalId":77058,"journal":{"name":"Canadian journal of nursing administration","volume":"9 3","pages":"82-104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19883071","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}

This paper describes a trisectoral collaboration of a hospital, health department, university and school of nursing to compare the efficacy and efficiency of referral decisions of hospital staff nurses to those of the public health liaison nurses (LNs). A process to identify decision criteria was undertaken and an educational programme was designed to assist the staff nurses with the referral process and to assure consistency of decision making. The two groups were then compared. The results of the study found staff nurses, using the decision criteria, identified more patients who required public health nursing visits than did the liaison nurses, refusal rate of the patients to participate was no different, staff nurses cost less than LNs and job satisfaction was not significantly altered for either group.

Registered nurses experienced a higher perception of autonomy given a more participative management style on the part of their nurse managers. Place of basic nursing education, which was used as an indication of cultural origin, was found to contribute to registered nurse perception of autonomy where basic education was in Canada or the United States. Increased workload (acuity) was found to detract from registered nurse perception of autonomy. Baccalaureate education, and primary or modular nursing care delivery models contributed to high autonomy, whereas diploma education, and functional or team nursing were associated with the low autonomy group in discriminant analysis. Administrative recommendations for nursing include the promotion of a participative management style on the part of nurse managers; attention to cultural diversity of nursing staff; support of advanced education in nursing; support of primary or modular nursing care delivery models; and management of registered nurses' workload in order to encourage a balance between client-focused professional practice activities and the routinized, provider-focused, task-driven activities.</p>","PeriodicalId":77058,"journal":{"name":"Canadian journal of nursing administration","volume":"9 2","pages":"95-108"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19688154","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}
