Sydney Nursing & Midwifery Office

Welcome to Sydney Local Health District Nursing and Midwifery Services.

We are committed to the care of our patients and consumers, and to improving the health of our community. Nurses and midwives make up almost half of our workforce, and we recognise and value the important contribution that they provide to our community.

Our dedicated nurses and midwives are committed to ensuring that all our patients, consumers and their families receive exceptional patient and family centred care.

I am proud to lead such a strong, resilient and accomplished workforce and take this opportunity to acknowledge the extraordinary work our nurses and midwives do in all types of settings. Whether it be on the wards, in the community or deployed for disaster response, our nurses and midwives make a positive difference each and every day.

Thank you to all our nurses and midwives for your care, compassion and enthusiasm for everything you do.
