Title Specialist nursing famework for New Zealand: A missing link in workforce planning Type (down) Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Policy, Politics, & Nursing Practice Abbreviated Journal
Volume 10 Issue 4 Pages 269-275
Keywords Workforce planning; Nursing workforce; Specialist nursing frameworks; Advanced practice nurses
Abstract Explores the NZ context underpinning adequate specialist nurse workforce supply, contending that effective workforce planning would be supported by the

development of a single unified framework for specialist nursing practice in NZ, with the potential to support accurate data collection and to enable service providers to identify and plan transparent and transferable pathways for specialist nursing service provision and development. Argues that advanced practice nursing frameworks assist in increasing productivity through building an evidence base about advanced practice, enhancing consistency and equity of expertise, supporting a reduction in role duplication, and enabling succession planning and sustainability.

Title Trailblazers: Primary health care programme evaluation Type (down) Conference Article
Year 2005 Publication Abbreviated Journal coda, An Institutional Repository for the New Zealand ITP Sector
Volume Paper presented June 2004 at Royal New Zealand Plu Issue Pages
Keywords New graduate nurses; Primary health care; Evaluation research; Professional development
Abstract This report is an evaluation of the academic journey undertaken by a group of newly graduated nurses who were sponsored by a New Zealand district health board to work in a variety of primary health care nursing settings. The impetus for this pilot employment option was the Ministry of Health's focus on primary health care nursing and workforce development for this sector and the Expert Advisory Committee for primary health care nursing's recommendations to district health boards regarding employment of graduate nurses and support for them to engage in post graduate study. Evaluation participants were primarily the graduate nurses who were interviewed at the end of their first year of practice which was following programme completion then again nine to ten months later. Findings include the nurses reflections on what supported them and what acted to impede as barriers to their learning success and practice development. The report concludes with five recommendations that can be used to ensure that the travels of future newly graduated nurses taking this pathway are supported, safe and successful.

Title What are the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards nursing, work and career?: a descriptive exploratory study Type (down) Book Whole
Year 2012 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 313
Keywords Generation Y; Registered nurses; Workforce retention; Work-life balance; Careers in nursing
Abstract Undertakes a descriptive exploratory study to ascertain the views of Generation Y NZ Registered Nurses (Gen Y nurses) towards nursing, work and career. Little empirical data exists about why young New Zealanders choose to become nurses in the 21st century. Further, little is known about their future career plans or their intentions to remain in the nursing workforce. Conducts a nationwide on-line survey of 358 Gen Y nurses from late 2009 to early 2010. Reports key findings: young NZ nurses are driven by traditional values of altruism, the desire to care for others, the ability to work closely with people, as well as being able to make a strong contribution to society when deciding to become a nurse, while seeking interesting, challenging and exciting work. Job security, the ongoing demand for nurses, the ability to leave and return, as well as the ability to combine work and family, are also important factors that help them to choose to become nurses.
