In response to strong demand, HWNZ is developing a national strategy, which is intended to be “a comprehensive ‘living’ document, co-designed with all parts of the sector, incorporating priorities and actions that will be updated and reviewed annually."

Your feedback on health workforce concerns (eg skills and policy gaps, funding & other barriers, changing roles, sustainability, recruitment and retention, safety, cultural diversity, population changes etc.) and ideas for developing our workforce to 2030 and beyond is sought.

NZNO encourages members and member groups to take this opportunity to contribute to this long overdue strategy, both directly to HWNZ [email protected] and to NZNO [email protected] to inform our input and engagement in stakeholder workshops likely to start in February 2018.

Please note there is no consultation document; the strategy has yet to be developed.
