Rural Pharmacy Student Placement Allowance (RPSPA) Program Survey

The Rural Pharmacy Student Placement Allowance (RPSPA) provides financial support to Australian universities to facilitate Pharmacy Student placements in rural and remote communities. The Allowance assists with students’ travel and accommodation costs for participating in placements in rural and remote areas. The Program aims to facilitate positive rural and remote placement experiences for Pharmacy Students in order to encourage students to return to rural and remote communities upon graduation.
