Title Specialist nursing famework for New Zealand: A missing link in workforce planning Type Journal Article
Year (up) 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

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.
