As part of FUTURE WORKFORCE , six strategy groups have been established around key health and disability workforces including one for the Nursing and Midwifery workforces. For Nursing and Midwifery, the Strategy Group provides an overview, with sub-groups considering the specific issues for each workforce. Membership of the group is drawn from District Health Boards, with support from DHBNZ and external advisors.
The Strategy Group acknowledges the significant other sector work on the nursing workforce, both underway and already completed. There is a need now to engage all key stakeholders in a national approach which links initiatives together in a planned and systematic way to progress nursing and midwifery workforce development.
These WebPages hold information on projects and innovations underway within the FUTURE WORKFORCE Nursing and Midwifery projects.
