Primary Health Nursing

The Primary Health Nursing Network is one forum where a range of primary health nurses can share their expertise and thoughts with colleagues from around the country. A key purpose of the network is to share information and stimulate discussion, and to provide a source of expertise for commenting on submissions and relevant professional issues.

Members who would like to communicate with other members interested or involved with Primary Health Care, can do so through the College Forum
