Antigua and Barbuda Concludes Plans To Recruit Nurses from Ghana

In an attempt to improve the delivery of public health services in Antigua and Barbuda, plans are being put in place to recruit a number of nurses from Ghana.

Health Minister, Sir Molwyn Joseph, made the announcement to Cabinet during its weekly meeting on Wednesday.

Two weeks ago, Barbados successfully recruited over 100 English-speaking nurses from the West African nation who have been trained to meet US standards and have several years of experience – all characteristics that bode well for their potential introduction into the system here in Antigua and Barbuda.

Local nurses have complained for some time about a lack of staff, and while there is no word yet on the number of nurses that could make their way from Ghana to the twin island nation, the recruitment should go some way to fill the gap.

It is also not clear what stage the recruitment process is at, or when the new nurses will likely arrive in the country – with the report saying only that “the process has started”.

However, Chief of Staff in the Office of the Prime Minister, Lionel ‘Max’ Hurst, said the nurses will be assigned to specific medical institutions based upon necessity.

“We anticipate that they will fill some needs but may very likely be dispersed to the clinics as well as to the hospital and the emergency care centre that was established on Nugent Avenue,” he told yesterday’s post-Cabinet press briefing.

“As you also know, we are building a new renal centre where the Edward Ward once stood at the Holberton Hospital and, in all likelihood, we are going to see some nurses with some competence in that particular area who will be able to assist those who are on dialysis,” Hurst said.

He explained that the government will be “relying heavily on the Barbadian model” to map the way forward in this regard.

Meanwhile, “a consultant is to be brought on board to draft a plan for making the nation’s polyclinics more efficient and better staffed,” the notes from Wednesday’s Cabinet meeting stated.

This is intended to address the issue of many patients heading to the hospital for emergency care when they require urgent care instead.

“The public clinics, therefore, are not being utilised for the purposes intended, because medical practitioners are frequently not present,” the notes added.

However, no timeline was given for when the consultancy would begin, or when the changes will take effect.

University of Medical Sciences Nursing Students Get Automatic Employment

The former Governor of Rivers State, Dr Peter Odili, has announced automatic employment for the newly graduated nurses of Pamo University of Medical Sciences (PUMS), Port Harcourt.

This is as the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN), has expressed confidence on the quality of products the university is graduating.

Odili, who is a Pro-chancellor and Chairman Governing Council of the university made the announcement yesterday at the induction/oath taking ceremony for the new Nurses held at the University campus in Iriebe area of the Rivers state.

The pro-chancellor, who announced the immediate employment after their internship, also awarded N500, 000 for the overall best graduated student, and N100,000 for each of the inductees, among other things

The graduated nurses include: Samchisadede Glad, Ajoku Chukwuemeka, Nwokogba Melody, Thompson Pamela, Chimankpam Sarimazinuchi, Vinebo Vanessa, Romeo Favour, Benson Elizabeth, Olumati Maxwell, Bruce Hearty, Dagogo Lolia, Ikpe Mercy and Kio Tatie.

The inducted nurses were the first set of students admitted into the department of Nursing Sciences, when the university started five years ago.

However, Odili tasked them on the need to always give honour and great respect to their parents, Governor Nyesom Wike and the state government for their contributions in helping them achieve their dreams.

He said: “The best graduating student has shown extraordinary attention to what they were here for in their hard work and dedication and for that reason, members of the governing board have agreed that each of the students will receive N100,000, the best in the various sub-departments will get N200,000, the best graduating inductee, will get N500,000.

“Each inductee will get laptop, a stethoscope, a Thermometer, a Nurses clock/watch, and a Nurses bag.”

He urged them to ensure they represent the school well, wherever they find themselves in the future.

Earlier during an interaction with journalists, the Registrar/Secretary General, Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN), Alhj. Farouk Abubakar lauded the PUMS for the great work it is doing to increase the manpower base of the medical sector of the country, particularly in Nursing care.

Abubakar described the induction of fresh graduate Nurses into the system as a mark of great joy, moreso, coming at a time when the country is faced with mass exodus of medical workers.

He expressed confidence in the quality of products the University is graduating , noting that the institution is world class and its products are competent and professional in every sphere of Nursing care delivery.

“What we are witnessing today is a mark of joy to us, especially at a period when the country is faced with high turbulent of brain drain of Nurses and midwives and this world class institution is today adding to the number to Nigerian workforce.”

In her keynote Lecture, the Resource person, Mrs. Gift Cornelian-Timighe charged the graduates to ensure integrity, hard work and teamwork while carrying out their nursing duties.

NursingSKL Launched to Help Canadian Nurses Build Skills

With the lingering effects of COVID-19 continuing to cause significant burnout and disrupting clinical learning, a new e-learning platform, created by award-winning health-care practitioners, is now launching with the support of the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) to help nurses build their skills.

NursingSKL, created by a group of Canadian physicians and nurses, launches today to help nurses improve their clinical skills in seven clinical specialties. And with nearly 66% of nurses suffering from burnout and nearly 1 in 3 contemplating leaving the profession, services to help with professional development could not have come at a better time.

“During the pandemic, the usual practicums and clerkships that nursing students and nurses rely on to learn shut down. So I started working with nurses in my own clinics to teach them between patients. They really enjoyed it. Their confidence improved and the quality and efficiency of their work was noticeably better. When thinking about the project, we envisioned a collaboration whereby physicians and nurses worked together as a cohesive group to improve patient related outcomes to ensure the highest quality of care for patients,” said Dr. Sanjay Sharma, NursingSKL’s editor-in-chief and a professor of ophthalmology at Queen’s University.

NursingSKL launched its e-platform in seven different specialty areas, including mental health, oncology, and women’s health. Currently, the e-platform is offered in English only. With NursingSKL, nurses will also be able to learn important clinical skills from leading practitioners, earning continuing professional development (CPD) certificates to maintain their licences, and participating in fun games to connect to colleagues around the country.

“We know that the pandemic has been unrelenting for nurses, and that the disruption of nursing education will have long-lasting impacts on the profession. That is why we are so excited to support the launch of NursingSKL, as it is fully aligned with CNAs mission of strengthening nursing leadership and promoting nursing excellence. This innovative e-learning platform will help to support nurses with the training and education they need to be successful in their jobs,” said Tim Guest, chief executive officer of CNA. “At a time where much of the profession is experiencing symptoms of burnout, it is important that we do everything we can to retain and recruit nurses.”

Digital Leadership Scholarships for Nurses and Midwives

This program is for nurses and midwives who want to move up to senior digital nurse/midwifery leadership roles at the provider level or are looking for opportunities to do so.
