Southern Cross Hospitals Ltd

Southern Cross Hospitals Ltd (SCHL) will identify a minimum of 10 nurses who are our emerging leaders across the network and co-design an individualised leadership development programme with them

The programme will be tailored to the specific needs of both the nurse and the hospital/ organisation and may include some of the following:

a. Attendance at the NZ Nursing and Midwifery Leaders’ summit

b. Enrolment in PG study with a focus on leadership

c. Shadowing a nurse leader for a set period of time

d. Attendance at governance meetings (eg. SQRM/ HCMC/ NIPCC)

e. Spend a day at National Office – meeting with leaders to discuss leadership and how the organisation works

f. Visit other hospitals around the network experiencing the differences and similarities in leadership, management and nursing processes

g. Enrolment in SCHL leadership development programmes
