Australian Journal of Advanced Nursing

Aims & Scope

The AJAN publishes a wide variety of original research, review articles, practice guidelines, and commentary relevant to nursing and midwifery practice, health- maternity- and aged- care delivery, public health, healthcare policy and funding, nursing and midwifery education, regulation, management, economics, ethics, and research methodology. Further, the journal publishes personal narratives that convey the art and spirit of nursing and midwifery. As the official peer-reviewed journal of the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (ANMF), AJAN is dedicated to publishing and showcasing scholarly material of principal relevance to national nursing and midwifery professional, clinical, research, education, management, and policy audiences. Beyond AJAN’s primarily national focus, manuscripts with regional and international scope are also welcome where their contribution to knowledge and debate on key issues for nursing, midwifery, and healthcare more broadly are significant. Please note there is no professional requirement to submission and that it is not a requirement that authors are currently, or have previously, practiced as a nurse and/or midwife.

Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.
