Disability Nursing Summit

September 1 - 4 2026

Got something useful to share?

When I started disability nursing, I was lost.

I had to build my job from scratch. I wasted so much time and energy working out what I was meant to do and how I was meant to do it.

Now, I’m launching something I wish I’d had at the beginning.

For seven years, I ran the Australian Homeschooling Summit. It was more than just a conference – it was a fun, supportive, and practical learning community. We shared our knowledge, connected with other who understood, and walked away refreshed and inspired.

Now, I want to bring that same grassroots energy to disability nursing.

An online event where we learn from each other, support each other, and build a community that gets it.

Want to create it with me?

 

Here’s how it works

🧠You put together a workshop

📢You present it, either live or pre-recorded, and answer the questions you get

🕹️You don’t even THINK about tech – I handle all that

(And you get all the help you need to create a fantastic workshop – I’ve done this with dozens of first-time presenters)

🎓You get full access to everything included in the summit

👯You get to meet and collaborate with the other presenters and attendees

💰And you earn from it – because nurses should be paid appropriately

What can you talk about?

You’re encouraged to submit ideas covering any disability-specific nursing skill. 

We’d love to hear exactly how you do high-quality continence assessments, teach support workers clinical skills, or perform hands-on clinical work in the high-intensity skills. 

Detailed case studies are always interesting.

Feel free to talk business, too – often the paperwork is harder than the clinical stuff. Do you have a fantastic quote/service agreement setup? Or a quick way to track and bill hours? Or can you walk us through your amazing AI note-taking software that helps you catch and organise all of your interview info?

The more specific, the better. You’ve got 30-45 minutes, so think of something you can teach really well in that time.

If you’re stuck just give me a broad idea, and I can help you research and refine it.

Sound good? Let’s do this.

Disability Nursing Australia is a community where diversity is accepted and celebrated.  We welcome folks of any cultural background, race, religion, ability, gender and sexual orientation.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land we live and work on, and pay our deepest respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
