More than 10,000 budding nurses and midwives will have their university degrees paid off in full to boost staffing acrossThousands of nurses and midwives will be recruited and trained for free as part of a $270 million initiative announced by the Victorian government on Sunday.
“We will pay their entire HECS debt,” Premier Daniel Andrews told reporters at the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation office in Melbourne.Credit:Scholarships of $10,000 on average will also be handed to thousands of postgraduate nurses to complete studies in specialist areas, including intensive care, emergency, paediatrics and cancer care.
“Our hospital system is under very, very significant pressure, and that is due to a combination of factors,” he said.
Yes but it will take 4 years
And what about teachers and the education departments!
ALL STUDENTS. Not only covidists.
No 'we' about it , the TAXPAYER , pays you dope . So there is now less money to fix the Health System ...oh ...Taxes will rise to cover it ... oh ...ok 🤬🤬🤬🤬
Who decided this, not fucking me. This is not how you fix a broken system!
Now if only we had those 4000 beds he promised us all
Budding class actions too…
Is that called management, or a situation created due to miss management
So we lose them after 2 years. This money could be better spent on wages.
buys votes?
Are all the leftists now running this scam
NOTHING IS FREE . TAX PAYER FUNDED .
A lot easier and cheaper if you just got rid of the mandates
End all covid mandates may be a lot cheaper.
Just add it to the tab
This will only make the nursing Shortage worse. No one will want to become a nurse after this subsidy ends therefore it will never end. Also what about all the nurses who just finish paying for the degree they might be upset and wanting compensation, Or just leave the industry
Thats all well and good for the future. The health services need help now. Find ways to entice nurses & doctors back to the profession now.
and were is the money coming from..springst
This is soo wrong
Gees why do I get the impression that an election is looming Chairman Dan is doing well distancing himself from the past! Where are the Libs and why are they not attacking him for the huge debt and deficits..and the mismanaged Pandemic and health issues!!!
