Nursing and Midwifery Summit Day Two: Wednesday, 29 June 2022

10:30 AM Panel Discussion: How To Engage, Retain And Develop A Sustainable Nursing Workforce of The Future

COVID has created a significant strain in the nursing community, exacerbating challenges with burnout and in many instances, seeing nurses leave the profession entirely. An overall shortfall of 85,000 nurses by 2025 and 123,000 by 2030 is predicted across all sectors: acute, aged care, critical care, emergency and mental health. This panel discussion will dig deeper to reflect on the changing sector to outline the important steps required across health services, education providers, associations and the nurses themselves to create a thriving talent pool and workforce that can support the demands of the healthcare service of the future.

  • What steps can we take to improve retention of nurses and address the skillset shortages faced by the industry?
  • In what ways can workforce planning and strategy be improved to reduce strain on the nursing profession?
  • How can we improve the attractiveness and appeal of the nursing career for future generations?
  • How can we harness the power of graduates and fast-track the development of early career nurses?
