AAAPC Primary Care Education committee invites you to attend our next Webinar.

“How do we get them and keep them? Understanding the preparation, preparedness and practice scope of nurses working in General Practice

To support community health care needs, increasing the availability, sustainability and retention of the nurses and midwives is in line with domestic and international workforce strategies. In Australia, however, many nurses working in primary health care report feeling underutilised.

This webinar will provide an overview of how nurses working in general practice prepare to work in this setting, meet the workforce knowledge and skill set needs and how we can keep them. Nurses need to want to work in general practice where there is interplay between clinical exposure, valuing these roles as well as the practicality and feasibility of doing so. Once nurses make the decision to work in general practice initiatives are needed to support their transition and retention to this setting.

This is a free event, open to AAAPC members and non-members. 

Note: Non-members are encouraged to consider membership to enjoy the organisation’s other benefits.
