2. MOTIVATION: A POWERFUL KEY TO STUDENT LEARNING ENGAGEMENT 3. THE QUERY What makes the new generation of nurses today? 4. STATISTICS Globally there are 29 nurses and midwives per 10000 population (WHO Statistics, 2013) In NZ as of 2010, there were approximately 45, 460 nurses (RN & ENs combined) Population is predicted to increase to 5.26 million in 2035 Factors which includes aging population and increased demand of health care services are inevitable. 5. THE PICTURE OF NURSING WORKFORCE BY 2035 In NZ 50% of the nursing workforce will retire in 2035 With the nursing workforce affected by the increasing population and aging there will be a shortage of 15,000 nurses by 2035. Increase in number of Internationally Qualified Nurses Decrease or decline in NZ nurse graduates 6. OTHER PREDICTIONS Potential of other countries attract more NZ nurses to relieve their own shortages NZ less attractive to IQNs Nursing could also become a less attractive career and fail to attract students Strategies would increase the retention of nurses ( improvements in working conditions) Some nurses may choose to leave the nursing workforce when the recession ends. 7. CHALLENGES OF CONTEMPORARY NURSING If the population grows to 5.26 million RNs will need to grow from 42, 330 in 2010 to 54, 660 in 2035= ENs from 3,130 in 2010 to 4,830 in 2035= An additional 495 RNs and 82 ENs needs enter the workforce annually 12, 330 1700 8. HOW MANY ARE WE LOOKING AT? 5.26 million population 970,000 of under 15 years old ( 890,00 in 2010) 1.2 million of over the age of 65 (600,00 in 2010) 9. NURSING EDUCATION DECREASED IN NZ Nursing Graduates Workforce Supply is very sensitive to any changes to education Equivalent Full Time Students. The increasing capacity to educate more nurses may be dependent on developing different models of clinical education and increasing investment in nurse education. 10. THE PICTURE 11. THE QUESTIONS? WHAT KEEPS US GOING? WHY DO WE KEEP NURSING ? HOW DO WE KEEP UP WITH SUCH CHALLENGES? WHAT MOTIVATES US TO CONTINUE NURSING? 12. NURSING EDUCATION WHAT MOTIVATES STUDENTS TO STUDY NURSING? THE FUTURE NURSING WORKFORCE THE FUTURE GENERATION OF NURSES (2035) 13. Why Do We Have to Know? The quality of nursing care given to health consumers reflects the nurses who provided it. The delivery of quality standard of care is highly affected by the motivation of doing nursing 14. The Challenges in Nursing Yet over the years, contemporary nursing practice faces a challenge on how motivated are the nurses in their career and out of that, a question was raised on what motivates new generation of students to choose nursing as future profession 15. The Purpose This study explored and engaged in an in-depth analysis on what motivates the new generation of future nurses or the nursing students to embrace the nursing profession. It was deemed imperative that in the process of knowing what makes the nurses of today this question should be retorted. 16.
