Vulnerable, hard to recruit, New & emerging workforces
Midland DHBs will work with the identified workforces to gain:
sustainable supply and retention good workforce utilisation increased service flexibility
1. Regulated Workforces
1.1 Sonographers: continue work on the national work programme for Sonographers, in conjunction with HWNZ, RDOs and GMsHR
1.2 Midwifery: retain regional microsite. Ensure with HWNZ that all DHBs are eligible DHBs for midwife placements on the voluntary bonding scheme. Work with Directors of Nursing and Midwifery and the Maternity Clinical Network to assess attraction and retention issues.
1.3 Nursing: The majority of new RNs have access to a formal New Entry To Practice programme and that Enrolled Nurses are formally and appropriately orientated into DHB services. To do this we will continue to review current numbers of internships, asses any current or future needs and provide for changes to the programme or increase in numbers as appropriate.
DHBs will also ensure that their services are ready for Diabetes prescribers and consider other nursing specialties suited for prescriber status and articulate these to and work with HWNZ to develop.
Development of a series of supervision workshops for Medical Supervisors
208 nursing graduates, (registered and enrolled nurses), have a formal orientation/new entry to practice programme in place. Flexibility has been built into the programme to allow entry throughout the year.
Midland DHBs have 12 candidates on the development pathway.
