ABSTRACT
The purpose of this dissertation is to research aspects of the historical
development of Nursing F..ducation and Nursing Management at the
Carinus Nursing College from 1949 to 1987; to determine and explain
how the College has adapted and coped with historical change and to
determine whether proposals for the future can be made.
Research has been done by applying the general systems theory and by
using the standard methods of historical analysis. Data has been collected
by means of oral history, literature search and documentation.
The variables isolated are the College as a system; the government or
influential supersystems; resources such as financial, personnel and
students and material inputs; and throughput or processing the work
in the output, which leads to the professional nurse. The models
used are Bucheles' organizational system, Sharma's flow chart• pattern,
Mintzberg's parts of organizational systems, and power flows and as
shown in Emery, Feibleman and Friends relations and rules of interaction
in systems thinking.
Parsons' "imperatives of maintenance of a system" as well as Alvin Toffler's
"second and third wave phenomena as responses to change" were two
further models that were used. By using Robert Buchele's model, the
work is divided into four parts:-
i) the College as a system
ii) the supersystems
iii) the resources
iv) the throughput or processing.
A futher design that emerged was that two eras could be distinguished,
within which three historical phases:- F.a.rly, Middle and Late are
developed.
