In 2018-2019, the Government of New Brunswick Department of Health, Health Workforce Planning Branch embarked on the development of a new nursing resource strategy. This work involved all stakeholders, including various government departments, regulatory associations, educators, and employers. As the development of the strategy began to emerge, those around the table focused on four key areas on which to focus - one of which was the matter of internationally educated health professionals, nurses in particular, and the challenges they faced when attempting to gain licensure for practice, connect with employers, and settle in to their new communities. The current New Brunswick model, the IEN Navigation Unit, is a result of those discussions.
