Honours Graduate Nurse Program – Registered Nurse



East Grampians Health Service is very excited to offer the opportunity to support one position for an Honours graduate nurse.


There is an increasing expectation by governments and communities for evidence-based healthcare practice, as health policies impact upon the way services are delivered to the community.

In this context nurses, as the largest group of healthcare providers, are central to the implementation of new, evidence-based practices. This requires nurses to increase their knowledge of and skills in, research utilisation and application. An honours graduate will make significant contributions to healthcare and to the discipline of nursing, through their knowledge, research and evaluation skills.

The honours year primarily involves an independent research project conducted under supervision of an expert academic in conjunction with completion of your graduate nursing program. EGHS would be flexible and supportive in ensuring both the needs of the research project and your work life are met.
