Nominate your regional health worker

ONLY a few days remain to nominate someone making a difference in rural and remote healthcare, with nominations for the 2024 Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM) Excellence Awards closing Friday 7 June.

The ACRRM Excellence Awards recognise the rural generalists, educators, researchers, and practice managers who go above and beyond to deliver life-changing care in rural, remote, and First Nations communities.

ACRRM president Rod Martin says the awards are an opportunity to publicly honour the professionals working to deliver high quality healthcare where it is needed most.

“There’s still time to nominate someone who inspires you - whether that’s a colleague, mentor, or community leader,” Dr Martin says.

“These awards are about shining a light on those who don’t seek recognition but absolutely deserve it; the people who work consistently, and with extraordinary commitment to the communities they serve."

There are 44 awards across state and national categories, including Rural Generalist of the Year, Medical Student of the Year, and Outstanding Contribution to Practice Management.
