402Q - Research Paper

Abstract
Aim:
Propose solutions to enhance recruitments strategies for international nurses coming to remote Australia.

Method:
After sharing my journey from leaving Europe to arriving in a remote community to work, I will be discussing three main points. The first one is the obstacles that can prevent nurses from making the decision to move country and come to Australia (animals, weather, language, visa...). The second point will be discussing the positive aspects of the different lifestyle this kind of work can offer (environment, culture, changing habits, quality of life, financial...). Finally, I will be explaining how the working conditions and the quality of care that we provide can motivate new nurses who are often driven by passion and are seeking to make a difference in people’s lives. 

Results:
How strong visual storytelling can highlight the breathtaking landscapes to inspire and engage nurses who are up for a change of lifestyle and to encourage them to take the leap into this kind of adventure. 

Conclusion:
The conclusion will summarise the ideas about how to improve future recruitment strategies from destination marketing, emphasis on work life balance to the unique experience of a lifetime.
