About our program

Our mission is to be a national support service for nurses, midwives, and nursing and midwifery students, fostering a sustainable and healthy workforce.

We are an independent health and wellbeing program that is designed, led and provided by nurses and midwives. 

We offer free, confidential peer support counselling to nurses, midwives, and students of the professions Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm (excluding public holidays).

Our vision

To empower nurses, midwives and students of nursing and midwifery by enhancing health outcomes through the provision of peer support counselling and referrals when required. In doing this, we increase safety and satisfaction for consumers of our health services.

Support for health and wellbeing needs

We provide compassionate and best-practice support to nurses, midwives, and students of the professions with a broad range of sensitive health and wellbeing needs. Find out more about our peer support counselling service.  

Discover our history 

Our program launched in 2024. Concerned about the health of nurses and midwives, the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (ANMF) lobbied the Albanese Australian Government to establish a service to support our health. This resulted in a grant to establish our program. 

Advocacy, engagement, ambassadors

We are keen to reach nurses, midwives and students in all professional settings, stages of their careers and locations around Australia. You might see us at conferences, our resources in your workplace or meet one of our volunteer ambassadors. 

We want our program to reflect the needs of our diverse professional community. We’re always open to feedback, collaboration, and ideas for reflecting our diverse voices and sharing more of what matters to nurses, midwives, and students of nursing and midwifery. Contact us with your feedback, tell us your story or volunteer as an ambassador.
