Canada does not have enough aboriginal nurses and aboriginal nursing faculty. Consequently, there is an inadequate number of nurses to meet both on- and off-reserve and community health care staffing needs. In 2002, Health Canada asked the Canadian Association of University Schools of Nursing to facilitate a national task force that would examine aboriginal nursing in Canada. The task force engaged in an extensive literature review, conducted a national survey of nursing programs, and explored recruitment and retention strategies. In 2007, the association prepared an update on the current status. In this article, the authors review the progress made during the intervening five years in the recruitment, retention and education of aboriginal nursing students.
加拿大没有足够的原住民护士和原住民护理教员。因此,无论是在保留地还是非保留地以及社区卫生保健机构,都没有足够数量的护士来满足人员配备需求。2002年,加拿大卫生部要求加拿大大学护理学院协会推动成立一个全国特别工作组,对加拿大的原住民护理情况进行审查。该特别工作组进行了广泛的文献综述,开展了全国护理项目调查,并探讨了招聘和留用策略。2007年,该协会编写了一份现状更新报告。在本文中,作者回顾了在这期间的五年里,在原住民护理专业学生的招聘、留用和教育方面所取得的进展。
