Nicole Turney Memorial Grant
Nicole began working as a physiotherapist at Bendigo Base Hospital in 1990 and gradually moved into Intensive Care Unit senior roles at Bendigo, Box Hill and the Austin. She was an active committee member for Cardiorespiratory Group in Victoria.
In 1998 Nicole became very unwell and two weeks later passed away at the Austin Hospital. The Nicole Turney Memorial Grant was set up in Nicole’s memory in 1999, open to Cardiorespiratory Group members of the Victorian Branch. In 2009 the Nicole Turney Memorial Grant opened to all Cardiorespiratory Group members participating in short courses or professional development projects in cardiorespiratory physiotherapy.
