Title | What are the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards nursing, work and career?: A descriptive exploratory study | Type | |||
Year | 2012 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | Available from the NZNO Library | |
Volume | Issue | Pages | 290 pp | ||
Keywords | Generation Y; Young nurses; Registered Nurses; Workforce planning; Attitudes to nursing; Surveys; Nursing shortages | ||||
Abstract | The author has taken a broad approach to this research to explore the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards the nursing profession, the work itself and their career plans. This study arose out of the author?s interest in health care workforce planning for nursing and in particular the retention of young nurses given the current national and global shortage of nurses. Because of the broad and descriptive nature of the research, a wide variety of topics are included in the literature reviewed. Chapter one provides background to the study and an overview of generational cohorts. Chapter two explores selected literature relevant to the concept of work and the characteristics of the Generation Y workforce. Other topics included in this chapter include Herzberg?s work motivation hygiene/maintenance theory and a selection of literature about key workforce recruitment and retention issues. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Health Sciences |

Title | What are the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards nursing, work and career?: a descriptive exploratory study | Type | 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. | ||||

Title | Specialist nursing famework for New Zealand: A missing link in workforce planning | Type | 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. |
