It gave students time to think and grow. Future opportunities are discussed to better support qualified nurses and the succession of leadership roles.
The document discusses several variables that can affect the outcomes of psychotherapy. It describes how psychotherapy requires motivation from patients and can be challenging, noting factors like a patient's level of distress, age, intelligence, and openness to the process. Gender is also mentioned as a variable, with questions around whether outcomes differ for male and female patients or if sexism influences therapy. The document aims to outline patient characteristics and variables in traditional therapies that can relate to treatment outcomes.
Therapeutic alliance is the most important treatment variable in psychotherapy. A concise summary is:
1. The therapeutic alliance between the patient and therapist is the strongest predictor of positive therapy outcomes, more so than the specific treatment approach.
2. Both the patient and therapist characteristics influence outcomes, such as the patient's motivation and personality traits, as well as the therapist's competence and ability to develop trust.
3. Effective communication through empathy, active listening, and avoiding judgment helps strengthen the alliance and engagement of the patient in treatment.

This document discusses mindfulness-based interventions for distressing psychosis. It begins by providing background on mindfulness and how it has been adapted from its Buddhist origins. While mindfulness has been widely adopted in healthcare, its application to psychosis has been slow to develop. Some concerns have been that meditation could be harmful for those experiencing psychosis. The document outlines studies conducted adapting mindfulness specifically for distressing psychosis. It involves shorter sessions with frequent guidance, focusing on the present psychotic experience without trying to change it. This aims to help clients develop a new, less reactive relationship with voices and thoughts. Pilot studies found improvements in distress levels and mindfulness of psychotic experiences. The document discusses mechanisms of change, including addressing beliefs about the omn

Nursing Research
"How will we increase job satisfaction?" I asked. Apparently, the hospital administration had tried several things, including an "across the board" raise, with no change in the turnover rate. Nurse Jones suggested, "It's better to ask the nurses themselves. Empirical knowledge, again, is the best possible way to 'know' here."
"It sounds to me like we are actually going to conduct some nursing research here!" I said excitedly. Though we did have a couple of research reviews as part of the nursing program, this would be my first experience of an actual nursing research after my training. The prospect seemed really interesting.
Refer to the Nursing research topic opens in new window to learn more on the nursing research topic.
I told the committee that we could conduct a survey to find out what would make the nurses happy. I told them about the research class that I had taken in my nursing program. While I did not remember all the details of the course, I had kept my notes from the class. I said that I would review my notes from the class and see if I could come up with some ideas for the next meeting.
We decided to adjourn for the day and meet later in the week. Each of us would think about the problem at hand and come back with suggestions.
As we walked back to.

The goal of this study is to better understand how spirituality impacts counseling needs for families dealing with cancer in this region. Participants would include cancer patients and their immediate family members from several treatment centers in Kentucky and Tennessee.

mental health intervention in primary
care
Fiona Mathieson
University of Otago,
Wellington
Collaborators: Dr Kara Mihaere, Professor Sunny Collings, Professor Tony
Dowell & Dr James Stanley
2. Background/ Rationale
Sub threshold syndromes common,
distressing, disabling, already
managed in primary care
Access and engagement issues for
Maori
A novel ultra brief intervention (UBI)
has been developed, promising
results
Aimed to adapt this for Maori
Feasibility study
3. Approach that was adapted: UBI
Developed through collaborative process
Low intensity, CBT based guided self help
3 ultra brief sessions + f/u call/email
Clinician as coach
Treatment manual & 3 self help booklets
Problem solving & behavioural change
Motivational interviewing components
‘Power of prescription’: homework
Integrated with patient management
system
4.
5. Adaptation Process
Partnership with Dr Kara Mihaere
Review of literature
Focus interviews with clinicians &
Maori potential users of the
intervention
Maori graphic designer employed
6. Literature
Very little research
Expert opinion says need:
Socio-centric emphasis
Spirituality
Maori language (Te Reo)
Identity
Connectedness
but individual differences
International literature
Similar concepts and values
7. Focus Interviews
Clinicians
Keep basic format
Scenario changes
Imagery changes
Include whanau & karakia
whakawhanaungatanga
Too wordy
Potential users of the intervention
Too wordy
More imagery
More Te Reo & wairua
Range of responses re karakia
10. Whakatauki
He manga wai koia kia kore e
whikitia
It is a big river indeed that cannot be crossed
He moana pukepuke e ekengia e te
waka
A rough sea can still be navigated
He toka tu moana ara he toa rongonui
Your strength is like a rock that stands in raging
waters
11. How consistent is this approach
with Maori models of mental
health?
Meihana model
Whanau
Wairua
Hinengaro
Tinana
Taio
Iwi-katoa
17. Patient comments
‘It.. felt as though he was helping me that step
further’
‘It’s helped me as a person just to believe in myself
again, have faith in myself again that I can actually
pull through these tough times’
‘It gave me the power back’
‘I just felt safe in that environment’
‘He was…lifting me out of my hole but not
mollycoddling me. I was doing it but he was there
too’
‘I was quite amazed ..at how much Māoridom ..are
up there and know what they’re talking about it’s
not just “oh we’re saying it because this is what the
pakeha have written’
18. Clinician interview feedback
Good to have another tool
Familiar face helpful
Need help with pronunciation
Like getting to know process
Karakia put people at ease
Had to chase people for sessions 2&3 (text
reminders helped)
Suggested extra training session
‘Being able to..offer something..and having
a framework so you don’t fall apart in the
middle of it’
‘Nobody in her life had ever paid her that
kind of attention…it was quite humbling’
19. Uptake
Low uptake
Trained 22 clinicians of whom 4
actually used intervention
Recruited 16 patients of whom 9
completed
Follow-up data for 7
Reasons for not completing
20. Limitations & discussion
Small n, no control group, short follow up
Reasonably easy to adapt tool
Those who used it, liked it
Don’t be scared to work in the area of
cultural adaptation when you are not of the
same culture- as long as you are genuinely
collaborative
21. The future
Planned RCT with parallel Māori stream; possible URL
Possibly adapt it for Pacific Island people, youth?
