What to do when you run out of doctors and nurses? An update on strategies to meet future health workforce needs
In December 2005 the Productivity Commission released its report on Australia’s health workforce. This recommended changes to accreditation and registration in the health profession, closer alignment between the education and health sectors to ensure education better meets the needs of the industry, changes to the MBS to allow for delegated care and facilitation of health workplace innovation.
Research and community trends in health workforce innovation since the release of the Productivity Commission will be summarized. The NHS Skills Escalator will be described.
CMVH’s work in positioning the ADF as a health workforce innovator will be considered. In particular work on mapping the competences of Australian medics against the proposed competences for physician assistants in Australia will be described.
