Maw, H. (2008). The challenge of developing primary health care nurse practitioner roles in rural New Zealand. In Jean Ross (Ed.), Rural nursing: Aspects of practice (pp. 201-214). [Dunedin]: Rural Health Opportunities.
The author traces the development of the nurse practitioner role in New Zealand, which was finally introduced in 2001. It traces the key events, from early debates on the issue, the influence of the Centre for Rural Health, and a series of government investigations into nursing which noted the untapped potential of the nursing workforce and the lack of ongoing clinical career pathways. Barriers to rural nurses becoming endorsed as primary health care nurse practitioners are examined, and some of the solutions to this issue are explored. Relationships between nurse practitioners and the local general practitioners, and community resistance are areas that need management. Education is seen as a key response to many of these issues.
