Are you a nurse working in a school in Australia?
Help us understand your work better!
Nurses have been working in Australian schools for more than 100 years. We know there is great diversity in the work nurses in schools undertake and would like to explore this further. We want to speak with nurses working in schools in all Australian states and territories, working in government schools and non-government schools in urban, regional and remote areas. Please help us understand your work better by registering your interest in this project.
