    The heath sector's welcoming more money in the pockets of new graduates

    The heath sector's welcoming more money in the pockets of new graduates


    The Government's expanded the existing scheme giving graduates bond payments to stay in the country.

    Payments are up to 50-thousand dollars over a period of three to five years.

    Nurses' Society National Director David Willis says it's needed.

    Willis says it's designed to get workforce into hard to reach areas.
