Good morning,

My names Rebekah Cox, Im working with APNA on the APNA Transition to Practice Pilot Program.

Community health i.e. nurses working in local council areas or private community health

General practice and many more

APNA is looking for applications from two groups of nurses who are currently working in primary health care:

1. Transitioning Nurses

Registered or Enrolled Nurses who are new to primary health care (may be graduate or experienced nurses transitioning from another area of health care)

2. Clinical and Professional Mentors

Experienced primary health care Registered Nurses, who want to provide support to these new nurses as a clinical and professional mentor

Are you new to primary health care or want to become a mentor to these nurses?
