Handover among nurses working in selected newborn units in Kenya; its purpose and structure
2020, HeliyonCitation Excerpt :A shift handover in this context is “the process of transferring primary authority and responsibility for providing clinical care to a patient from one departing caregiver to one oncoming caregiver” (Machaczek et al., 2013). It has been described as a collective narrative of nursing practice that involves a complexity of communication (Manias and Street, 2000; Parker et al., 1992). The ‘what’ of what is shared at handover helps plan patient care, identify safety concerns and facilitate continuity of information (Alvarado et al., 2006).
Fatigue in hospital nurses — ‘Supernurse’ culture is a barrier to addressing problems: A qualitative interview study
2017, International Journal of Nursing StudiesCitation Excerpt :The cloak of invulnerability that a Supernurse wears and the associated desire to project an image of strength also aligns with prior work describing a tyranny of tidiness and tyranny of busyness in nursing practice (Manias and Street, 2000). In their work describing nurse handoffs, Manias and Street (2000) identified and described these themes as driven by nurses’ concerns about judgment from colleagues about the state of their patient and the completeness of their work. Comments from nurses in that study revealed that they were motivated to get their patient tidy so as to appear that they have it all together and not to leave extra work for the next shift.
Talking about persons - Thinking about patients: An ethnographic study in critical care
2016, International Journal of Nursing StudiesCitation Excerpt :These findings resonate with previous studies which describe facets of critical care nursing practice. The ‘routine’ thinking identified in this study reflects how Almerud et al. (2008) found critical care nurses to actively manage time, and the habitual tidying behaviours described by Manias and Street (2000) and Philpin (2007). Although a result of ‘routine’ thinking, these behaviours play a role in keeping the environment tidy, managing time, and ensuring the correct functioning of equipment – all of which are essential to minimising risk in critical care (DH, 2005).
Medication communication between nurses and patients during nursing handovers on medical wards: A critical ethnographic study
2012, International Journal of Nursing StudiesCitation Excerpt :Handover is a routine forum of nursing communication at change of shifts, when nurses take breaks and following patient transfers across ward spaces. This forum aims to ensure the continuity of patient care by communicating relevant information between nurses (Manias and Street, 2000). Handovers can be used by nurses to provide information about medication changes and on how these changes relate to patient assessment parameters (Manias et al., 2005).
