    Challenging Functional Decline as a driver of care for hospitalised older adults: A discursive ethnography Jeannine Therese Moreau A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Sydney Nursing School The University of Sydney November 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would only be thoughts on an airwave if not for the gracious and generous participants who came forward both enthusiastically and cautiously to consent to participate in the study. I deeply appreciate their enduring commitment to working with me day after day as I followed one patient after another. Each participant contributed for the most part with enthusiasm and a generous sense of curiosity. My two Supervisors Dr Trudy Rudge and Dr Sandra West were great, two amazing minds. Thank you both for your generosity of spirit as you were wonderfully supportive, shared ideas, albeit try as hard as I could, no sharing of “answers”. You stretched my thinking when I thought the elasticity was over but presto the emergence of insights and new ways of thinking, more rewriting and rewriting, albeit so very worthwhile. Thank you to colleagues who generously shared their PhD experiences, ideas, thinking and philosophical perspectives never mind a few rowdy discussions; thank you Olga, Denise and Rochelle in particular! Anne you have been and continue to be an inspiration as you engaged with me in some rather intriguing aha moments and terrifying although rewarding insights always with a side of laughter. Clare, you lived up to your name as someone who lit up my thinking with our great conversations as we reached for clarity in our wonderings about life, always refreshing.

  • An Open Letter to the Australian Public from the Undersigned Staff of the University of Sydney

    An Open Letter to the Australian Public from the Undersigned Staff of the University of Sydney

    An open letter to the Australian public from the undersigned staff of the University of Sydney. We write this letter motivated by a sense of grave concern over circumstances at Nauru, Manus Island and other Australian mandatory detention centres for refugees. As members of an academic institution that is situated at the forefront of Australian social and cultural life, we feel it is our duty to express this concern, hoping that—together with similar efforts by others—it will serve as a catalyst for positive action and change. Allegations of torture and more generally mistreatment of refugees by Department of Immigration and Border Protection employees and contractors have been and continue to be made public over the last several years. Initially, perhaps, such allegations were dismissed by Australian citizens, in disbelief that such repugnant acts could be committed by a society that perceives itself to be just and humane. The mounting evidence, however, of torture and abuse—including testimonies given by refugees themselves, as well as evidence submitted by former employees and contractors who worked in detention centres—is overwhelming. We find it abhorrent that the Australian Government has passed a law, the Australian Border Force Act 2015 that came into effect on July 1st, threatening its citizens with prosecution and up to two years imprisonment for publicly disclosing details relating to these conditions. The context that the Act deals with—circumstances in immigration detention centres—has nothing whatsoever to do with national security. We are deeply distressed at the erosion of our society’s democratic ethos and of its core freedoms that such legislation represents.
