Abstract: This chapter examines progress made in the transformation of nursing education with respect to relevant changes that are currently taking place in South Africa and within the framework of the Department of Health's White Paper for the Transformation of the Health System in South Africa. The chapter outlines basic nursing education and training programmes available in South Africa immediately prior to 1994, and addresses transformation targets envisaged by the role players involved with transforming nursing education.The content presented is derived from a variety of official discussion documents, publications, reports and submissions from various stakeholders, among them the South African Nursing Council and the Democratic Nurses Organisation of South Africa (DENOSA).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse the extent to which students are constructed as consumers in contemporary policy documents, including the white paper Success as a Knowledge Economy: Teaching Excellence, Social Mobility and Student Choice (DBIS, 2016), which provides the basis for the Higher Education Bill which has recently passed through the UK parliament.
Abstract: It is now widely assumed in England – by academics and social commentators alike – that, as a result of the introduction of a wide range of market reforms over the past few decades, English students have become consumers of higher education (HE). In this chapter we draw on two sources of data to interrogate critically these assumptions in relation to both students’ choice-making processes and experiences of degree-level study. Firstly, we analyse the extent to which students are constructed as consumers in contemporary policy documents, including the white paper Success as a Knowledge Economy: Teaching Excellence, Social Mobility and Student Choice (DBIS, 2016), which provides the basis for the Higher Education Bill which has recently passed through the UK parliament. Secondly, we consider the extent to which these constructions are shared by students themselves, using data from focus groups in a diverse sample of English higher education institutions (HEIs). We explore whether students contest these constructions and/or offer their own alternatives. The structure of our chapter is as follows: we first discuss the background to the research, by outlining key facets of the higher education system in England, and some of the main theoretical debates that are pertinent to our study. We then briefly describe our research methods before going on to present our findings in some detail – comparing the degree of congruence between policy constructions and student understandings. In our conclusion, we discuss some of the systemic challenges that emerge from our data.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the management and delivery of care for 176 elderly people receiving both community health and social services and provide both quantitative and qualitative evidence of inadequate case management and lack of co-ordination in providing care.
Abstract: This paper investigates the management and delivery of care for 176 elderly people receiving both community health and social services. These people represent a crucial group if the community care policy is to become a reality, and they receive high services levels. The study provides both quantitative and qualitative evidence of inadequate case management and lack of co-ordination in providing care. Assessment, determining servi ces, and review were all inefficiently managed. Liaison was non-existent for the majority, and opportunities for substitution were missed. There could be conflict over role, particu larly in relation to personal care. Innovations designed to tackle these problems remain limited in scale. These difficulties are recognized and addressed by the 1989 White Paper 'Caring for People' which makes a number of proposals to clarify responsibilities and accountability. The different professional assumptions and work practices among the plurality of agencies providing care will need to be resolved if community care is ever to offer a realistic alternative to care in institutions for increasing numbers of people with high levels of dependency.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors draw on an analysis of OFFA Access Agreements, mission statements and other publicly available material for one region of England to analyse institutional discourses, priorities and rhetoric on fair access across a range of university missions.
Abstract: This paper interrogates how definitions of widening participation and fair access are changing, in the light of changing government and institutional priorities and following on from the Browne Review (2010) and the Government White Paper: ‘Students at the Heart of the System’ (2011). The authors draw on an analysis of OFFA Access Agreements, mission statements and other publicly available material for one region of England to analyse institutional discourses, priorities and rhetoric on fair access across a range of university missions. We highlight both continuity and change in the way individual universities express their widening participation aspirations and marked differences between universities, based on mission group, location and catchment area. We assess the future prospects for widening participation based on the notion of equal opportunities for all (Schwartz 2004), as opposed to sponsoring social mobility for some via entry to ‘our most selective institutions’ (BIS 2011).
