Nurse migration, as a key human resource in the healthcare system, is considered a significant challenge. In recent years, this phenomenon has reached an alarming level. This study was conducted to investigate and identify the reasons behind nurse migration.

This study is a narrative review. A systematic search was performed in reputable databases using the Persian and English keywords "migration," "migrants," "nurses," and "nurse migration." To ensure comprehensive coverage, the search was conducted without time limitations and using logical operators AND and OR. Ultimately, 36 relevant studies were selected for review.

Based on the findings, the reasons for nurse migration are divided into two main categories: Push Factors and Pull Factors. Push factors include low wages, limited educational opportunities, low job satisfaction, unstable political environment, workforce shortages, and physician dominance in decision-making. In contrast, pull factors include access to jobs with competitive wages, opportunities for professional advancement, recognition of nursing expertise, a favorable work environment, and opportunities for personal growth and development.

Today, health is more than just the absence of disease, and this concept is especially emphasized in nursing compared to other professions. This study aimed to review the metaparadigm of health and the necessity of its consideration in nursing.

The present narrative review was conducted using Persian and English keywords across information sources such as Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, SID, Magiran, and the Google Scholar search engine without any time restrictions up to the beginning of March 2024. To maximize the scope of the study, the search was performed using the operators AND and OR. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 20 articles and 10 books were ultimately reviewed.

The review indicated that the concept of health, from the perspectives of the Quran and other views, encompasses various dimensions including physical, mental, intellectual, social, and emotional aspects, and has different definitions from various theorists.

Understanding the metaparadigm of health in nursing enables the delivery of high-quality and effective healthcare to individuals, promoting a healthier life. This requires the attention of policymakers and national planners to develop health promotion programs in Iran.
