Testimonials

“I really like NurseClick and appreciate the comprehensive coverage of current events. Well done, ACN!”

“Thank you Robyn, I am so proud of myself to achieve success given my extremely busy full time job, and the pressure that contributes to my week. I don’t mean for that to sound over confident, just that even though I realise I could do better, I am so happy that I have given myself the opportunity to participate in post graduate study, find time to focus and submit reasonable work. Sincere thanks to you also for your quality input and support which has enabled me to do this course and enjoy it so much.”

“After the final assessment I was with a new graduate nurse asking her to tell me about her patient. This patient was stable and I found myself asking her about the ‘potential complications’ the patient faced… and the words I had written in my essay came flooding back. I was very happy to link what I had learnt and written into practice. This unit helped me a lot to enhance my knowledge in relation to clinical setting.”

“CNnect has taken some getting used too but I have yet to find the “perfect” computer program. During the course I have visited the College at Parramatta and found the library staff very supportive and helpful and above all very pleasant to deal with. On my visits I asked if it was possible to speak with my Tutor and she had no problems in spending some time with me. She actually took time out to come and see me in the library. Her passion for this subject was obvious.”

“Thank you so much. I have thoroughly enjoyed being involved in this course and have learnt an enormous amount relevant to everyday nursing practice. This course has ignited a passion of learning; to deliver best nursing practice and be instrumental in quality patient outcomes.  I will definitely be looking to continue study in the not too distant future. Sincere thanks to you again for your consistent support and facilitation of my learning, you have been inspiring and a fantastic role model and I am grateful and appreciative.”

“A non-judgmental collegial voice that can represent nurses and nursing to all sides of government and associated organisations. Being part of this organisation affords me a voice to position nursing for the future. It is also the peak organisation that I can contact for advice and information on professional questions. Through organised conferences and meetings, I can network with, mentor, or be mentored by, nurses who may not be within my geographical or professional sphere.”

“As a third year nursing student I joined ACN primarily for the wide range of continuing education opportunities available. I have since been very impressed by the level of support, professionalism and encouragement offered by the organisation. I have been in healthcare in another profession for 16 years and nursing is a career change for me. In all that time I have never felt supported the way I have by ACN. I am thrilled to become a part of the nursing profession and I am so glad that I became an ACN member.”

“Thirty seven years in the nursing profession and loving it! Central to my enthusiasm is being “meshworked” with colleagues who also have vision, passion, commitment and action – and there are thousands of us. The Australian College of Nursing is my “tribe” where I belong, am valued, informed and where I can contribute to supporting our profession to flourish.”

“I am very proud to be a Fellow of the Australian College of Nursing. I have been a Member since 2005 and it has given me the opportunity to network with like-minded nurses and have a voice within my profession.  Being a Member has also given me the confidence to lead others within healthcare.”

“I joined the Australian College of Nurses to help find a unified voice for Community and Primary Health Care (CPHC) Nurses across Australia. Over the past few years ACN has worked with the CPHC Nursing Community of Interest to create a position statement on our speciality; launch the Australian CPHC Nursing week; and currently is helping us to work with stakeholders on a career and educational framework. Together our voice is growing stronger.”
