Rural & regional #Victorian paramedics: the 2026 RWAV Rural Health Workforce Census is open. The 2025–26 report didn't mention #paramedics or #ambulance once. If you're not counted, you're not planned for.
Have your say: rwav.checkbox.com/RWAV-Census-... #Paramedicine #rural #health

Today lodged a submission to the Time-Tiered Working Group (TTWG) established to lead the review of #primary #care time-tiered #MBS items and report its findings to the Medicare Benefits Schedule Review Advisory Committee (MRAC) on publicly funded services listed on the MBS. #health #paramedicine

Call for abstracts is open!

Looking forward to international submissions. Reach out if you need any support!

Advised that my submission accepted into Senate Community Affairs References Committee's inquiry into Support at Home Program. Checking of 257 submissions so far shows #paramedicine named in just 3, while #GPs, #nurse practitioners & #Allied #Health feature repeatedly. www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentar...

Pleased to have lodged a submission to the Tasmanian Legislative Council Sessional Committee that is inquiring into the financial and operational performance of the Department of Health citing recent research. #health #paramedicine www.parliament.tas.gov.au/committees/l...

Not straying too far from the last post on "saving #ambulances for emergencies" my latest post is all about so-called "inappropriate" #emergency presentations

TLDR: There's no such thing as an "inappropriate" presentation, just an inappropriately designed health system
