The statement also addressed the individual nurse's rights and the positive and negative issues related to migration. It delineated roles that the national nurses' associations should take to raise nurse awareness of potential constraints and ensure that countries seeking to recruit nurses had policies and practices relative to fair and humane treatment of nurses.
