Federal election 2010
This federal election the QNU, as part of the ANF, is running a campaign that is aimed at getting the very best for members.
We need to ensure that nursing and midwifery is at the forefront of the health policy debate in this country and that the public is educated about the very desperate shortage of nurses and midwives.
We are asking all Australians to vote for more nurses and midwives and for better health for patients and their families.
