Abstract
As a nurse working in Gibraltar, I am often struck by just how many differences exist in nursing care developments there compared with mainland UK. Gibraltar, a British overseas territory, enjoys a unique position at the south western tip of Europe. Healthcare services are provided by the Gibraltar Health Authority to the approximately 34,000 residents and about a further 10,000 cross-frontier workers. The healthcare model is closely based on the NHS.
