International Nurses

Welcome to Beautiful Melbourne
 
 
Melbourne is a favourite destination for thousands of travelling nurses as it provides the balance of a huge range of entertainment and leisure opportunities along with great work options in all nursing specialties. 

Melbourne is Australia's most loved city. It has a population of 3.6 million who enjoy some of Australia's greatest golden sand and surf beaches and a beautiful background of national parks teeming with exotic wildlife. 
For those who want to experience more of the good life of sun-tanning, surfing and bronzed lifeguard watching, there are choices ranging from snow skiing, gold-field's prospecting, winery tours (vineyards to equal those in France), riverboat/houseboat cruises, flying schools, sky diving, Formula 1 Grand Prix, Tennis Australia. The list goes on to cover every sport, art and recreation known to appeal to the needs of our international visitors.

Conditions for nurses are second to none with all public hospitals being major teaching facilities affiliated with universities. Public and private hospitals are well equipped with the latest technologies. A major overhaul of the healthcare system over the past 10 years has resulted in most health facilities being new or recently updated.
