When New Zealand's first Nurse Practitioner was approved by the Nursing Council of New Zealand in December 2001, it was the centenary year of New Zealand nursing registration, but less than a decade after the commencement of New Zealand's first pre-registration nursing degrees. What were the conditions and forces in play that saw nursing achieve a new emphasis on advanced clinical education and practice, culminating in the development of an advanced, expanded scope of nursing practice? This contemporary historical study examines the professional and sectoral milieu of the 1990s and the turn of the 21st century, together with the policy initiatives undertaken to advance nursing in New Zealand during that period.
2001年12月，新西兰首位执业护士获得新西兰护士理事会批准时，正值新西兰护士注册一百周年，但距离新西兰首个预注册护理学位课程开始还不到十年。当时是什么样的条件和力量促使护理领域对高级临床教育和实践有了新的重视，并最终发展出了范围更广、水平更高的护理实践呢？这项当代历史研究考察了20世纪90年代和21世纪之交的专业和行业环境，以及在此期间为推动新西兰护理事业发展而采取的政策举措。
