After Hours Nurse Managers (AHNM) play a vital role across NSW in how our hospitals are run and supported after hours. This Whole of Health Program forum was held at the Aerial Function Centre, University of Technology Sydney on 2nd June 2016 to understand the issues which the AHNM face in their work and to identify how to better support them.

In particular, the aim was to identify common themes for issues, opportunities to work in partnership and to share learning across the state.
