Application Forms

All placements will commence on Monday of your first week with Orientation Day.

Please organise travel so you arrive in Broken Hill by Sunday evening, ready to commence placement at 8.30am on Monday morning. Placements commence on Monday and mid-week starts are not permitted.

Accommodation is normally available after arrival on Sunday. If you require accommodation on the Saturday evening prior to commencing your placement, please note this in the comments box at the end of the application form. The BH UDRH will do its best to assist with your accommodation request, however all requests may not be possible.

On those weeks when Monday is a Public Holiday then Orientation runs on Tuesday and first day at placement is Wednesday of week 1.
