She provides us with an insight into her role, the development of the role in a busy acute hospital setting and its effectiveness for patients. At the same time, we can announce the approval of site preparation and job descriptions for Advanced Nurse Practitioner (Sexual Health) and two Advanced Nurse Practitioners (Emergency) at St James’s Hospital. These are in themselves quite historic events in the development of nursing and midwifery in Ireland. As promised in our last newsletter, we are devoting part of this newsletter to the Health Strategy document Quality and Fairness — A Health System for You. This document is of central importance to every health professional in Ireland and it is essential that in nursing and midwifery we are fully familiar with its implications for the development of our profession. We commence our analysis of the document in this edition with an overview of the central themes, in particular, the guiding principles, the national goals and the frameworks for change.

Operating Theatre Nurses Section Description: The timing of the launch of this book is critical when the hidden intervention of nursing needs to be identified. In today's world of health and ill health, costs need to be accounted for: this must never be at the expense of patient care at any level. Anyone who had doubts in relation to quality patient care being met in a cost effective manner will have these doubts dispelled on reading this book. Every hospital library should have at least one copy, every theatre should hold a copy, the book should be mandatory reading for all student nurses. It is a source of reference and philosophy for those interested in working in the operating department.

As with all forms of harassment, bullying is totally unacceptable and there is no excuse for any worker, regardless of their position, treating a colleague worker with anything less than their due dignity. This booklet is issued for members of the Irish Nurses Organisation and anyone interested in ensuring that the nurse's working environment is to be free from bullying. As in our 1993 'Bill of Rights for Nurses and Midwives', we exhort employers, nurse managers and all others, to work together to draw up and give effect to a positive statement, and to set guidelines, which will ensure that each nurse at work treats her/his colleagues (nursing and others) with the respect and dignity which one mature individual is expected to show to another in any healthy and interchanging environment.
