Why work in Western NSW
Student placements form part of your course work to complete your health-related qualifications. Completing your placement in Western NSW supporting our rural communities will be the experience of a lifetime.
Many students who have completed placements in our rural and remote practices have come back to join us as graduates.
We offer more variety, educational benefits and support than a metro location, so you can fast-track your career.
At Western NSW, some of our placements offer accommodation and multiple rotations.
