Targeted to research novices, the article takes a nuts‐and‐bolts approach to document analysis. It describes the nature and forms of documents, outlines the advantages and limitations of document analysis, and offers specific examples of the use of documents in the research process.

How we Think

Introduction: This paper provides an overview of the impact of government policy in supporting the growth of an Indigenous nursing workforce in New South Wales and Australia. Methods: Publically available nursing workforce performance reports along with current literature were reviewed to provide a perspective on the current situation. Results and discussion: The National partnership agreement on closing the gap in Indigenous health outcomes indicated that to improve Indigenous health outcomes, significant investment is required with particular reference to increasing an Indigenous workforce. As nurses comprise the majority of the health workforce a number of strategies and initiatives have been put in place to support this agreement. Even though there has been commitment through government policy and funding initiatives it is questionable if this is having any real impact on growing an Indigenous nursing workforce. Conclusions: Recruitment strategies that will increase the number of Indigenous nurses within the health workforce requires a multilevel approach. Despite efforts to increase Indigenous nursing workforce numbers, there has been limited impact to any real successful gains since 2008. Building and growing an Indigenous nursing workforce that will support the “Closing the Gap” initiative will require significant continuing effort.

Choosing a nursing career: Building an indigenous nursing workforce

[Extract] It is fitting that a chapter of this book considers the place of research in rural nursing. Research in health disciplines potentiates quality in healthcare delivery and can introduce new and effective evidence-based practices, consider the success and usefulness of health policies, or describe and comment on clients' or patients' experiences of particular phenomena. Initiating research may at times seem an overwhelming venture, and we hope this chapter will provide insights on how to start. The authors have used a research study the undertook in 2007 with three other colleagues on overseas trained nurses' experiences in rural settings as an exemplar to illustrate the approaches adopted to ask and answer questions of practice (Francis, Chapman, Doolan, Sellick & Barnett, 2008).

Promoting healthy partnerships with people with chronic conditions.

Community as Partner is an invaluable resource for students, practicing community nurses and other health professionals. Up-to-date and rich in detail, this new textbook explores the World Health Organization's policies and goals for health for all, and discusses and demonstrates how these policies are being implemented at a national and local level in Australia and New Zealand.

The partnership approach taken in Community as Partner provides a framework for planning health promotion programs with local communities. A wide range of community groups are introduced and analysed. A variety of examples of actual health promotion programs and activities are provided to show how effective partnerships can be forged to promote the health and wellbeing of local communities.
