Research interests: a study of proposals submitted for approval.
The purpose of this paper is to attempt a simple classification of research interests of nurses and midwives in order to describe the main areas and themes. Caring for the Future( 1 ), previously The Welsh Office Strategic Intent and Direction for Health Services in Wales ( 2 ), is used as a framework for some parts of the classification as it is argued that Caring for the Future should now form the agenda for research and development activity of all disciplines. Common areas for failure in obtaining approval to proceed with research projects are discussed in order to suggest ways in which the researcher can speed the process by anticipating problems.
