Abstract |
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. |

Abstract |
A study of the life histories of five self-identified lesbian women in nursing is reported. A metastory of “In/Visibility” captured the essence of lesbians being the focus of intense scrutiny while at the same time feeling the pressure to keep their lifestyle and identity hidden from others. Seven story themes were elaborated: closeting of lesbianism in nursing, isolating and hiding from self and others, living a double-life, self-loathing and shame, experiencing discrimination from others, keeping safe, and threatening others who are closeted. |

Widens the understanding of a more holistic approach to specialist nursing development, which holds great promise for the specialist nursing workforce in NZ and internationally. |

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. |

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. |
