NMHPV Wellness Conference

23 May 2013


The Nursing and Midwifery Health Program Victoria conference theme of Wellness was chosen to signify a state of being which we believe is something we should all strive to achieve, maintain and enjoy.


This year’s conference featured an exciting, innovative and engaging program. It addressed work/life balance, shift work challenges and exposed participants to new and simple ideas for getting the best from their body.


Importantly it was a valuable opportunity for participants to stop, breathe, laugh and care for their most important asset, themselves.
