Primary health care is any medical service that is provided outside the four walls of a hospital, including aged care, community health, general practice, custodial, schools and many other primary health care settings. Australia's 98,000+ primary health care nurses play a critical role in disease prevention and control to keep people healthy. They provide proactive care and health promotion to keep Australians well.
Nurses are the backbone and the front line of primary health care in Australia. However, nurses are still undervalued in the Australian healthcare system.
According to the 2019 APNA Workforce Survey 44.8% are dissatisfied with their wage and 39.9% have never asked for a pay rise.
Receiving a salary that recognises your value is an important part of APNA’s Nurse 2022 goal, which is why we have put together this member-only negotiation guide.
Use this guide to project assertiveness, confidence and earn your true value.
