  Title International nurse migration: Impacts on New Zealand Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Policy, Politics, & Nursing Practice Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 8 Issue (up) 3 Pages 220-228  
  Keywords Recruitment and retention; Registered nurses  
  Abstract Nurse migration flows in and out of New Zealand are examined to determine impacts and regional contexts. A descriptive statistics method was used to analyse secondary data on nurses added to the register, New Zealand nurse qualifications verified by overseas authorities, nursing workforce data, and census data. It found that international movement of nurses was minimal during the 1990s, but from 2001 a sharp jump in the verification of locally registered nurses by overseas authorities coincided with an equivalent increase in international registered nurses added to the local nursing register. This pattern has been sustained to the present. Movement of local registered nurses to Australia is expedited by the Trans-Tasman Agreement, whereas entry of international registered nurses to New Zealand is facilitated by nursing being an identified “priority occupation”. The author concludes that future research needs to consider health system and nurse workforce contexts and take a regional perspective on migration patterns.

  Title Nurses' perceptions of mental health assessment in an acute inpatient setting in New Zealand: A qualitative study Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication International Journal of Mental Health Nursing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 12 Issue (up) 3 Pages 203-212  
  Keywords Psychiatric Nursing; Clinical assessment; Attitude of health personnel; Nursing models  
  Abstract This qualitative study explores the perceptions of mental health nurses regarding assessment in an acute adult inpatient setting in Central Auckland. Fourteen mental health nurses took part in semi-structured interviews answering five open-ended questions. The analysis of data involved a general inductive approach, with key themes drawn out and grouped into four categories (roles, attitudes, skills and knowledge) in order to explore the meaning of information gathered. The outcome of the study acknowledged the importance of contextual factors such as the physical environment and bureaucratic systems, as well as values and beliefs present within the unit. The participants expressed concern that their input to assessment processes was limited, despite belief that 24-hour care and the nature of mental health nursing generally suggested that a crucial role should exist for nurses. In order for nurses to be established as central in the assessment process on the unit the study concludes that a nursing theoretical framework appropriate for this acute inpatient setting needs to be developed.
