Founded more than 70 years ago, in 1947, National Taipei University of Nursing and Health Sciences (NTUNHS) is the first vocational higher institution of nursing in Taiwan.

This conference invited three international scholars to share their views on the development of precision health care in the Australia, United States and Singapore. The conference sought to raise awareness among nursing professionals and academics on current developments in precision care and to explore opportunities that bring change to our domestic medical, health, and caring services.

ANP is an umbrella term used to describe an advanced level of nursing practice that maximizes the use of in-depth nursing knowledge and skill to meet clients’ health needs. The purpose of this paper is four-fold: to review the literature to identify new and emerging ANP roles within and outside Canada; to identify potential impacts and benefits of these new and emerging roles to nursing and to the public; to identify opportunities and challenges in implementing new ANP roles; and to provide a framework for discussion and consultation on the feasibility and desirability of implementing particular ANP roles.

  • Nursing Reforms
    Nursing reforms Paradigm shift for a bright future August 2016 2 Nursing reforms: A paradigm shift for a bright future Nurses form the largest segment of healthcare workforce and play a vital and major role in delivering healthcare effectively. There is an immense need of well-trained nurses who are not only technically sound, but also specialized in various fields and abreast with the latest healthcare technologies. FICCI’s Health Services Committee has constituted a task force on Nursing Reforms to provide inputs on the present and future requirements for closing demand supply challenges, nursing skills for modern day medicine, accreditation models, regulation and, most importantly, restoring the due position nursing deserves in the society and the hospital hierarchy. This paper aims to identify challenges in the nursing sector, and provide a roadmap for the Government, policy makers, industry, and education and research institutions with the purpose of strengthening nursing as a sector. Nursing reforms: A paradigm shift for a bright future 3 A strong nursing sector is the necessary building block of a strong healthcare sector. Collectively we need to bring in policy reforms for nursing both in the public and private sector. Reforms to strengthen nursing education and welfare scheme for nurses will help in bridging the skill gap and enable nurses to deliver to their best ability. Nurses must be encouraged to take significant leadership roles in health policy, planning, and provision. We in the government are taking necessary steps in this direction. - C.K. Mishra Secretary, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India Health reforms in India are increasingly targeted towards improving the health of the nation’s people both urban and rural.
