What about us? There are 22 direct entry midwives

Sadie
Joy Johnston (a member of NBV) has asked this to be forwarded to any midwives who may be interested.
I would encourage other midwives registered in Vic to think seriously about applying for appointment to one of the positions on the Nurses Board, as advertised in last
Victorianlegislation should reflect this.
