About Us

Nursing Review has its finger on the pulse of New Zealand’s health

Nursing Review, the independent multimedia platform for New Zealand’s nurses, has been published by NZME. Educational Media since 2001. Five print editions of Nursing Review are published each year featuring articles on a range of themes of special interest to nurses as well as news, opinions, research and a well-regarded professional development article and learning activity each edition. The popular print editions are delivered to our subscribers as well as a copy going to every hospital ward and general practice in the country.

Nursing Review also has an active social media presence through its Twitter account and shared Facebook page with sister title INsite.

Nursing Review has a regular Professional Development article and activity. The peer-reviewed PD article and structured learning activity offers nurses an informative and readily accessible way to help meet their continuing competency requirements.

The attractive article and learning activity is positioned as a pull-out in the magazine so nurses can read, complete, and file the verified Professional Development activity in their learning portfolios.

Each activity is linked to the Nursing Council competencies and is equivalent to one hour of professional development towards the requirement of 60 hours of professional development over three years.
