The paper demonstrates a reasonable understanding of the issue, but its coverage is lacking in several aspects. The author manages to identify sources relevant to the topic  namely, five scholarly articles from peer-reviewed journals and two books apart from that. However, the sources are not current  the newest ones are from 2014, and the majority have been published in the early 2010s. Given the lag between the submission of the article and its publication, it means that these sources most likely reflect the situation with the recruitment of foreign-educated nurses (FENs) by the end of the 2000s. As such, even though the paper satisfies the numerical requirement for the number of articles, the latter do not contain accurate information because their data is obsolete by approximately ten years.

The paper lists and briefly describes all of its sources in the Literature Review section, outlining their content and demonstrating how they may be relevant to the issue discussed. However, it only cites three of these sources in the discussion proper  that is, the paragraph stating the authors position about importing nurses as a viable solution to the nursing shortage. For instance, Goodman (2005) is not quoted in the discussion at all. Hence, the author fails to a minimum of five scholarly articles while analyzing the issue and accomplishing the paper. While the sources are presented, the author only engages with some of them in the analysis. Thus, the text uses some of the selected articles to support some of the ideas regarding the issue.

The author states a clear position regarding the issue by claiming that solving the nursing shortage through the recruitment of FENs is a viable solution. However, the paper fails to provide a well-considered analysis of the pros and cons. It largely focuses on the benefits, including better access to healthcare for the population of the importing countries and higher salaries for FENS, increasing the remittances they can send home. However, the author barely touches upon the cons. Admittedly, the paper mentions the fact that FENs may face discrimination and prejudice, which is further complicated by their cultural adaptation. This is in line with the recent findings of Viken et al. (2018). However, the author does not consider the fact that an increased percentage of employed FENs corresponds to a worsened patient experience (Germak et al., 2017). Similarly, the author fails to mention that importing FENs from other countries undermines the accessibility of healthcare in said countries, which themselves may experience even worse shortages of nurses (Elhadi et al., 2020). Hence, the paper states a position but does not properly discuss the pros and cons related to the issue.

Developing of Social Justice

The author selects a suitable definition of social justice and properly cites it. It also addresses one important aspect of the issue in terms of social justice by pointing out that FENs are likely to experience racism and discrimination. At the same time, the paper does not discuss the relation of social justice to the global community. If anything, it deliberately disregards the global aspects of the issue by ignoring how the practice of importing FENs may actually worsen the nurse shortage in the providing countries (Elhadi et al., 2020). As a result, the paper does not go beyond providing and citing an operable definition of social justice and shedding light on some non-global ways in which it relates to the issue.

The author reflects on how the work influenced their future as a leader and provides several considerations that can have an impact on the professional future in this capacity. It also analyzes the research from the perspective of nursing leadership, particularly when discussing the role of leadership in countering possible discrimination and racism faced by FENs. This analysis is not particularly deep since it is only one short paragraph that applies to one aspect of the issue as related to nursing leadership, but it is present nonetheless. Apart from that, the paper also briefly discusses the role of nursing leadership.

The paper presents some of the main points of the work in the introduction section and also summarizes most of them in the conclusion section. However, the summary only includes the major claim that importing nurses is beneficial for both sender and recipient countries and does not mention the arguments developed in the text. The paper manages to adhere to the APA formatting in a slight majority of cases, but numerous deviations are present. When citing the works by their authors last names in the Literature Review section, the author does not include the date of the source publication in parentheses. Source titles in the references page are consistently capitalized instead of only using capital letters for the first words in the title and subtitle. In some cases, and is used instead of an ampersand when listing multiple authors, and sometimes the author uses full names instead of the initials or puts the initials before the last name. Dates for the sources mention months as well as years, which is not required by the APA for printed periodicals. As such, the papers formatting requires considerable improvement.
