“…However, we feel that these findings illuminate some of the problems underlying the global issue of medication errors, and have sufficient practical adequacy (Sayer, 1992) to form the basis of curriculum development and revision. Accordingly, suggestions for improving the nursing curriculum, based on themes and subthemes developed in this study, are offered in Table 1.…”

Background: Medication errors complicate up to half of inpatient stays and some have very serious consequences. To our knowledge, this is the first qualitative study of Iranian nursing students' perspectives of medication errors.Objectives: To describe nursing students' perspectives of the causes of medication errors.Design: Four focus groups were held with 24 nursing students from 4 different academic semesters in the nursing school in Tehran, between November 2011 and November 2012.Using a qualitative descriptive design, themes and subthemes were identified by content analysis.Results: Two main themes emerged from the data: "under-developed caring skills in medication management" and "unfinished learning of safe medication management", which was subdivided into "drifting between being worried and being careful", and "contextualising pharmacology education". All respondents felt that their education programmes were leaving them vulnerable to "drug errors" and cited incidents where patient safety had been jeopardised. Conclusion:Nursing curricula need to increase investment in medicines management. If nursing students are to become competent, skilful and safe practitioners, their learning will require extensive support from their academic institutions and clinical mentors.

“…Especially in rapidly changing areas, critical realism creates opportunities to uncover the interacting structures and their hierarchical powers in directing change in different time^space contexts (Erendil, 1998;2000). The use of both extensive and intensive methods helps us to cross check information produced from various sources and to enrich interpretation (Sayer, 1984).…”

Debates on urban tourism have been coupled with a widespread discourse on ‘placelessness’, ‘loss of identity’, and ‘standardization’ related to the modernist ideology of planning. In this respect, utilizing this historic urban fabric has become important as a means of recreating an urban image. Ironically, efforts to avoid standardization are caught in another trap of sameness and blandness, because a very similar vocabulary is used in the ability of those tourist-historic places to meet the expectations of the universal tourist industry. In this context, we analyzed the recent efforts to integrate an inner-city area, Ankara Citadel and its vicinity, focusing on the changing identity owing to the introduction of income-generating and tourist-attraction facilities. The nature and consequences of this transformation have been investigated in terms of the issues of preservation practice, economic feasibility, public interest, and its ethics and legitimacy.
