Well its been a while - ive had some OT work lately so have been spending most of my free time working on rigour and literature review chapters. Wanted to get them in progress before starting data collection.
Ive taken on board the advice and information about editing and "think" i have made a god attempt at re-working it to make sense and make sure it flows nicely.
Had an aweful time trying to begin my literature review chapter - i just didnt know how to start i guess. So i printed off what literature i had for my proposal and took it to pieces. Then I went over my annotated bibliogropahy and put in more "bits" to give it depth. I used my literature mind maps also to gain a bit of depth.
Its very scrampled at the moment - im going to have to go through and bring out the main/key themes and re-work it (just like i did for rigour).
At the moment i think the key themes are:
~New Zealand health care context (funding/cost effective/quality/setting characteristics)
~New Zealand acute health care setting (nature/OT role/discharge planning process/scope of practice)
~Demands in acute care setting (skills/ knowledge/challenges/coping strategies)
~New graduate's (skills/knowlege/perceptions)
~New graduate's clinical reasoning/decision-making (theoretical knowledge/practical situation)
~Support/Supervision of new graduates (needs/nature/purpose)
On a extra exciting note - participants are beginning to contact me expressing their willingness - fingers x'd i get more :)
