Notre Dame will lead a consortium of universities to establish the Kimberley University Department of Rural Health, substantially increasing training opportunities for nursing, midwifery, allied health students and professionals.

The move aims to help ensure health students and profession-als have a greater opportunity to live, study and work in Broome and in other Kimberley communities.

The Broome campus will receive about $8.5 million a share of $26 million set aside specifically for additional university rural health departments.
