Third year Bachelor of Nursing Science/Bachelor of Midwifery undertaking a rural and remote Nursing placement

Established in 2014, the Helen Hall Rural and Remote Nursing Bursaries will be awarded to students who are in their third year of undergraduate study in either a Bachelor of Nursing Science or a Bachelor of Midwifery degree to support the undertaking of a rural and remote Nursing placement. The bursaries will provide support to students with their travel, accommodation and living expenses incurred during their rural and remote placement, and/or to supplement lost income during the placement period.

Please refer to the Queensland Health map of rural and remote health facilities to check if your placement facility meets the rural or remote location requirements.

Please Note:  This bursary is offered on a yearly basis through funds provided by an external donor. If funding is not available in any given year, the bursary will not be awarded.
