Abstract

[Extract] There have been multiple government and community initiatives over the last 20 years to strengthen Australia's rural health workforce. At a national level, the Australian Government's Rural Health and Multidisciplinary Training (RHMT) Program is one of numerous Commonwealth rural health workforce programs aiming to address the maldistribution of the rural health workforce and comprises a network of Rural Clinical Schools (RCS) and University Departments of Rural Health (UDRHs). Demand for rural health professionals in regional, rural and remote Australia continues to outstrip supply; a trend that extends to other sectors, as illustrated by the Towards a Regional, Rural and Remote Jobs and Skills Roadmap Interim Report.
