A huge thank you to all entrants and judges for making the research poster competition a success!
We received a total of 10 research posters, an incredible variety of submissions, presenting new original research and program implementation related to improving patient outcomes.
The posters were judged by Naomi Morick (Director of Nursing Midwifery Education, ASH) and Nicole Norman (Director Nursing and Midwifery (CLEaRS), RDH). The judging criteria was based on clarity, organisation, visual appeal and key information conveyed using headings such as objectives, methods, results and conclusion.
Congratulations to all winners!
