We offer world class facilities that are constantly growing and expanding to include new and better training and service provision.

We have outstanding rural sites that offer fantastic training with enthusiastic and experienced clinicians, in addition to a great rural community collaborative ethos where the network provides the required support. If you want Metropolitan lifestyle – we have it, if you want rural lifestyle-we have it. We offer the best of both worlds, and an opportunity to try both.
