In response to the towns and communities affected by the devastating Australian bushfires this summer, rural doctors have reached out to the relevant authorities to offer assistance and support.
Both the Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA) and the Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM), have said that there were many doctors looking to provide what help they could during and after the disaster.
“We have rural doctors right around the country offering to help their colleagues in these communities as best they can,” said Dr John Hall, RDAA President.
