Timothy Manzie: "Kelly & I just wanted to thank-you & the rest of the ORH team for an excellent orientation day [Welcome & Orientation Day, 2 July] last Thursday as well as thoroughly enjoying meeting under social conditions later through the night. We both had a great time!" (06-07-2009)
Claire Nicholson: "I really enjoyed my time living and working in Chinchilla [during my Rural Experience Week]. The nurses were very helpful and my experience at the hospital has helped me gain insight into a rural hospital and community. I would definately consider it for my placement." (16-01-2009)
Nicola Cantoni: "Just wanted to say thank you to you and the team at the Office of Rural Health for the Farewell Dinner on Friday night. It was nice to celebrate being a scholarship holder and reflect on my time in Gayndah. I certainly have no regrets about taking on the challenge of working as a rural OT. I enjoyed finding out where other scholarship holders had been working, and hear how much they were enjoying rural practice. Receiving the certificate was a nice surprise! Thank you as well for the accommodation - I felt very spoilt.
I hope that the Rural Scholarship Scheme continues to be well supported in the future, as it definitely helps ensure people in rural communities continue to have access to quality health care.
I look forward to hearing more about the 65th birthday celebrations next year!" (03-11-2008)
Jane Macmahon: "Thank you very much for providing subsidy for my clinical placement at Toowoomba Hospital (Jan 7th - Feb 15th). I thoroughly enjoyed my placement and have gained so much insight into the field of Speech Pathology. The whole experience was invaluable and I am grateful to the Office of Rural Health for their support." (25-02-2008)
