We believe to improve and maintain the health of our nation’s rural and remote and Indigenous communities, they need access to doctors who are not only skilled but are fully supported to undertake their role with adequate funding, staffing, resources, and remuneration. Rural and remote communities can thrive when access to comprehensive, continuous, and high-quality healthcare services are guaranteed.
Our advocacy on behalf of members and their communities concentrates on four priority areas for action.
PRIORITY AREA 1
Grow the Rural Generalist workforce as a rural healthcare solution
PRIORITY AREA 2
Restore the value proposition of rural general practice
PRIORITY AREA 3
Build strong resilient and sustainable healthcare services within rural and remote and Indigenous communities
PRIORITY AREA 4
Drive intergovernmental solutions which deliver high quality, accessible healthcare services for rural and remote and Indigenous communities
