An Emergency Amendment to the National Scope of Practice for Paramedics in the Setting of a Global Pandemic
Unprecedented events force us to look at “the way we've always done it” and reconsider how we might better leverage underutilized resources.

All ten members of the Australasian Council of Ambulance Authorities completed a questionnaire describing their volunteer and first-responder staff, their numbers and deployment, and the manageme…
The role of context in establishing university clinics
Healthcare systems have a vested interest in employing work-ready graduates. The challenge for universities is to find ways to provide workplace learning that incorporates student education and high quality patient care. Inland areas of Australia, similar to other rural locations globally, experience additional challenges including a relatively high incidence of ill health, increasing demand for health services, chronic workforce shortages and ag…
Grassroots Community Engagement
Governments in Australia are allocating resources to rural communities to increase their sustainable social, economic and environmental development. One of the projects funded for this purpose was 'The Gippsland Community Building Program', undertaken in three rural communities in Victoria in two stages from 2001–2004. A facilitator was appointed for each community project, and local government developed a model of governance in response to the c…

Evaluation of the project involved participant observation, monitoring of media reports, surveys and interviews. Outcomes are reported with reference to four capacity building domains of vision and leadership, structure and partnerships, community engage…
