The Australian College of Nursing is proud to administer wound care scholarships on behalf of the Australian Government and the Department of Health and Aged Care. These scholarships equip you with the skills to accelerate healing and prevent the costly medical complications associated with chronic wounds.

The Aged Care Scholarships will allow for up to 400 additional scholarships per year for three years, for personal care workers and nurses to complete qualifications. There will be up to 100 allied health scholarships per year for up to three years, which will be for allied health professionals to focus on dementia related qualifications.
