At Counties Manukau Health we are committed to making graduate nurses feel supported. The NETP team includes a Nurse Coordinator/Educator and three Clinical Coaches who work closely with the senior nursing staff in all clinical areas to support the graduate nurse throughout the duration of their first year of practice.
