Title Contracting as a career option for nurses Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue 1 Pages 20-22
Keywords Professional development; Nursing; Work
Abstract (up) A nurse presents research and her own experiences of contracting. Contracting, as defined in this article, refers to a nurse not employed permanently on a wage. It covers agency nursing, short and long fixed-term contracts and secondments. The author identifies the need to continue to develop professionally, which is now a mandatory requirement under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance (HPCA) Act. Contractors have little, if any financial support to develop professionally, and time taken to do courses is not paid. Taking study leave within a contract may also not be an option. Options for managing professional development in these conditions are offered, including goal setting, investing in education or training, and considering some longer contracts. Practical financial advice and examples are given, including managing accounts and consideration of employment law. The author recommends that skilled nurses looking for interesting ways to develop their careers and to branch out in an entrepreneurial way should seriously consider taking up contract work.
