ADVERTORIAL Enliven supports international and return to work nurses

A brand-new NZ Nursing Council approved Competency Assessment Programme is underway, and Masterton’s Joy Castro was one of the first to get on board. The Kandahar Court healthcare assistant is halfway through the new programme being offered by Enliven positive ageing services. The not-for-profit organisation operates rest homes and retirement villages across the lower North Island and already has an industry recognised training programme. The competency assessment programme has been in development for a number of years but the timing is good, says Enliven General Manager Nicola Turner. “This accreditation is a fantastic milestone for us as it allows Enliven to provide return to practice nurses and internationally qualified nurses the knowledge and skills they need to work in New Zealand’s health industry as safe, competent clinicians,” she says. “There’s a global nursing shortage that everyone in the industry is feeling, this programme will go some way to helping address that.” The first intake is already underway and Castro, who comes from the Philippines where she worked as a medical-surgical nurse, says she’s enjoying the mix of theoretical and practical learning. “I was working at Kandahar Court as a caregiver but when I was encouraged to take up the programme, I jumped at it,” says Joy. “My journey with CAP makes me feel as though I’m a respected member of the Enliven family and will help me be a

better team member.” Turner says while the current intake is made up of learners who were already part of the Enliven team, the programme is open to any overseas nurse or New Zealand nurse who wants to return to practice. She says course enquiries have been strong from both New Zealand and overseas.
