Abstract | Appreciative Inquiry is a methodological approach originating in the discipline of organisation development and management. The principles underpinning this approach can be used to take a new look at nursing practice of medication administration. In ensuring that this different perspective can be judged as credible by others in the discipline it was deemed necessary to gather information from various vantage points. Observation, coupled with interviews were analysed along with researcher reflections and the relevant literature to gain a comprehensive view of real world practice that provides positive aspects of practice. The observation data collection tool was designed using internationally recognizable performance indicators adding to the trustworthiness of the findings while the computer assisted qualitative data software package NVivo 10 provided the platform through which to systematically handle the data to comprehensively approach the phenomena of nursing practice during medication administration in the in-patient setting of a regional hospital located in south east Queensland. |
