Nursing and Allied Health Rural Locum Scheme (NAHRLS)
Can't get away to do your Continuing Professional Development training? Apply to NAHRLS for someone to fill in for you while you are away. The Australian Government has established the Nursing and Allied Health Rural Locum Scheme (NAHRLS) to support nurses, midwives and allied health professionals in rural and remote Australia to get away to do the professional development training they need to continue their vital work.
The NAHRLS will find you and your workplace a suitable locum for the period you are away and cover the associated costs of the locum’s accommodation, travel, meals and daily allowances. Organisations pay the base locum rate.
