Download a full copy (970 KB) or a summary (205 KB)

Nurse Workforce Futures, updates our earlier report, Australian nurse supply and demand to 2006, and includes New Zealand data. The report develops and applies a model of the demand for and supply of graduates of Australian and New Zealand pre-registration nursing and midwifery courses to the year 2010.

CORRECTION NOTE
The projections for Western Australia in Nurse Workforce Futures (Preston 2006) require significant amendment because of incorrect figures for that state in the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare’s Nursing and Midwifery Labour Force 2003 (AIHW 2005). The Institute is currently correcting those figures and those in Nursing and Midwifery Labour Force 2004 (AIHW 2006), and ensuring that the figures for 2005 are correct when they are published shortly. Corrected figures are likely to lead to the WA projections (‘standard’ assumptions) of surpluses through to 2010 becoming shortfalls (or a small surplus). Detail will be provided on this site after the Institute has published new estimates.
