ACRRM welcomes the NSW Government’s recent announcement of $500 million investment in health that will benefit rural communities and help fund rural hospitals across the state. The College looks forward to receiving further detail of the services to be supported but is pleased to acknowledge the delivery of this additional infrastructure support to rural communities as a good start.
The crisis state of health services in rural and remote NSW has been a key area of concern for the College and while the funding offers a welcome injection, we expect it will still leave many areas in critical need.
ACRRM has been advocating for improvements to support rural healthcare and NSW Senate Inquiry into rural health services.
The College believes the state of rural general practice and rural hospital services across NSW is the result of many years of neglect at all levels of successive governments. The College urges the Government to ensure that this funding makes its way to sustainable, permanent staff and resources that are based in rural and remote locations.
Noting the state's urgent need for rural doctors in both hospitals and general practice, the College strongly recommends that this funding support the employment of Rural Generalists who are trained and supported to meet both general practice and hospital service needs, including emergency and birthing services. These doctors offer a positive and cost-efficient workforce solution which builds resources within rural and remote communities.
