The Bendigo Health Foundation, together with the Palliative Care Auxiliary, is proud to support two Bendigo Health nurses to undertake a Postgraduate Certificate in Palliative Care through funded scholarships.
The scholarships are helping nurses build their knowledge, develop new skills and bring new ideas back to the ward — helping strengthen care for patients and families.
For nurse Emily Coughlan, the course has also provided an opportunity to reflect on why she chose a career in palliative care.

These scholarships are another way that the generosity of our community is helping create impact across Bendigo Health.
