Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Nursing Research
  • Health Disparities

Background:

  • Smoking remains a significant public health issue, particularly within specific occupational groups.
  • Understanding the smoking behaviors and cessation attitudes of Maori nurses is crucial for targeted interventions.
  • Previous research indicates varying smoking prevalence rates among healthcare professionals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the smoking behaviors and attitudes towards smoking cessation among Maori registered and student nurses.
  • To identify barriers and facilitators for smoking cessation within this demographic.
  • To inform the development of effective smoking cessation strategies for Maori nurses.

Main Methods:

  • A national web-based survey was conducted.
  • Data from 410 participants, including Maori nurses and student nurses, were analyzed.
  • Descriptive statistical analysis was employed to examine behaviors and views.

Main Results:

  • Overall smoking prevalence was 21.5%, with 32% of Maori nursing students and 20% of Maori nurses smoking.
  • A significant proportion of smokers (75%) consumed fewer than 10 cigarettes daily and predominantly smoked outside the home.
  • Nearly 20% of smokers expressed intent to quit within the next month, though many did not utilize available cessation interventions.

Conclusions:

  • Smoking prevalence among Maori registered nurses is lower than previously reported, with a notable intention to quit.
  • Smoking cessation attempts could be enhanced by evidence-based guidance and interventions.
  • Increasing smoke-free Maori nurses can improve the efficacy of cessation support for patients and whanau (extended families).
