Models of Care
Useful resources | Guides | ReferencesThe Nursing Models of Care Project was established to assist clinical nurses to:
- explore and develop innovative models of nursing care delivery and organisation that would facilitate best clinical practice and
- develop new and emerging roles and partnerships within nursing and health care
Workshops, seminars and roadshows have been a feature of the project, involving frontline nursing and midwifery staff and senior clinicians across NSW using their local experience and knowledge to help implement new models of care across the State.
