This year’s conference celebrates our journey so far and explores how the wisdom of our past continues to inform bold new directions in rehabilitation, leadership and rehabilitation in our nursing practice.

Across inspiring speakers, collaborative discussions and evidence‑based sessions showcasing the essential role of rehabilitation in nursing in optimising rehabilitation outcomes, we will reflect on the past, examine emerging models, and envision the next era of rehabilitation. Grounded in our shared history and propelled by innovation, this gathering is an opportunity to reflect, reconnect, and reimagine what’s possible for the people and communities we serve.
