ROLE OF NMBA AND ANMF
1.
The role of NMBA:
The nursing and midwifery board of Australia was established in the year of 2009
by the Australian Health Workforce Ministerial Council in order to monitor all the aspects
of the nursing and midwifery practice in the NSW and the territory regions. The
functions of NMBA board abide by the health practitioner regulation national law in all of
the NSW states and territory. There are 5 core areas of function that is performed by the
NMBA, registration of the nursing and midwifery students, development of the practice
standards, code of conduct, and guidelines for nurses and midwives, handling the
disciplinary complaints and investigations, assessment of the non-citizen practitioners
and approval of accreditation standards in nursing and midwifery practice (Savarese et
al., 2010).
The NMBA plays a pivotal role in the direction and understanding of the policy
design and implementation within the scope of practice for nurses and midwives in
Australia as well. The NMBA in collaboration with Australian health practitioner
regulation agency or AHPRA set the policies and practice guidelines and actively
oversee the compliance of these policies.
The role of ANMF:
ANMF stands for Australian nursing and midwifery federation, which can be
defined as the union for the registered and enrolled nurses, midwives and nursing
assistants who are practicing in any of the NSW state and territory within Australia. The
ANMF had been established in the year of 1924 in the name of Australian nursing
federation, which was later changed to ANMF and presently comprises of 249000
members all throughout Australia. The primary role within the context of health care
provided by the nursing professionals, ANMF contributes in advancement of industrial,
political and professional status of the members of this union. The mission statement of
the ANMF had been to avoid the American style payment system in the health care and
keep the health care provided as accessible and cost effective as possible.
Along with that, the roles of the ANMF also extend to safeguarding the best
interests of the nursing professionals practicing in Australia, such as employment,
workload, shifts, training and skill enhancements and any other challenges faced by the
nurses or midwifery professionals practicing in Australia. Lastly the ANMF plays a
profound role in monitoring and evaluating the practice conditions of the nursing or
midwifery health professionals, attempting to improve health care services for both the
patients and the professionals who provide the care (Scanlon et al., 2012).
