Hi guys,

I have been acepted into a diploma of nursing at mayfield. I have the option of doing this course as a traineeship and would really like to do so, however it is up to me to find a aged care facility that are willing to take me on as trainee for 8 or more hrs a week. Under their advice I have contacted many local facilities and finding one that offers traineeships is proving impossible. I also have searched online and looked in papers to no avail.

I'm at the point where I may need to forgo my position as I won't be able to afford the full tuiton costs (for non trainee students), does anyone have any ideas on what other avenues I can take to find a placement? or know of any facilities that do offer traineeships? I am willing to work for free at this point!!

any help will be greatly appreciated

thanks

Molly

Hi, I don't know about Mayfield, but where I'm doing my course, with gov funding I am paying the same amount as the ones doing a traineeship with none of the hassles. Does Mayfield offer funding?
