'A thorny problem for feminism': an analysis of the subjective work experiences of enrolled nurses
1University of Bradford, School of Health Studies, UK.
Abstract:
Feminist methodology has been used in this study to investigate the subjective work experiences of 19 enrolled nurses. Reflexive conversational techniques enabled participants to relate autobiographical narratives examining their experiences of working in a nursing hierarchy. Two themes are reported: 'nursing identity' and 'exploitation'. Through an analysis of these themes insight has been gained into the manner in which nurses inter-relate. The study demonstrates how the correlation between rank, status and expertise within the nursing hierarchy may have negative consequences for patient care.
