We don’t accept requests direct from students. To apply for a placement, you’ll need to talk to your education provider.

We offer nursing, midwifery and allied health student placements in partnership with Southern Queensland Rural Health (SQRH).

Please see our Medical Booklet or Medical Video for more information.

Read more about clinical placements on the Queensland Health website.

Students enrolled in international education facilities

Queensland Health doesn’t enter into Student Placement Deeds with international universities.

If you’d like a placement in a Queensland Health facility, you or your university placement coordinator will need to discuss placements with a Queensland university.
