The future of primary health care nursing begins with you
Australia needs more skilled, confident primary health care nurses. By hosting a student nurse through APNA's National Nursing Clinical Placements Program, you and your workplace can play a vital role in showing tomorrow’s nurses why primary health care is the place to be after graduation.
And it's easier than you think to get started!
Our team makes the process as smooth and simple as possible, leaving you to focus on sharing your passion for primary health care with the next generation of nurses.
