Looking to Recruit a Graduate Nurse?
Graduate nurses bring fresh perspectives, current clinical knowledge and the foundation for a long career in primary and community care. PC Connect links employers across the sector with graduates who want to work in general practice, urgent care, community health, rural health, aged care, hospice, and kaupapa Māori and Pacific health services.
By registering your interest, you can access a growing pool of graduates who are actively exploring opportunities outside of the hospital setting and are looking to build rewarding careers in primary and community care.
Funding - The Graduate Registered Nurse Incentive Fund provides $15,000 for urban employers and $20,000 for rural employers to support a graduate's first year in practice. Find out more about this here.
