Exactly one year ago the @apaphysio and International Physio community gathered in #Adelaide for @APAConference - an amazing celebration of our profession. Despite COVID-19 our profession stays united, patient centred and innovative across the globe @Anja_thinks

[APA President @president_apa]

Happy Mother’s Day to all our #physios that share family time to make a difference in our communities Australia wide. @apaphysio

[APA President @president_apa]

We need a robust Allied Health workforce strategy to ensure that students, supervisors and practices are able to ensure the next generation of professionals start and stay in the profession they are trained in. The sustainability of all AH professions is essential! @apaphysio

[APA President @president_apa]

We have alternate models of care that can prevent these waiting lists if funding enabled them. Like non operative pathways for #OA is a start and can improve outcomes. That is true health reform! @apaphysio @DrChrisBarton

[APA President @president_apa]

It’s great engagement with another like minded #physio organization of @APTAtweets that has been built over many years. It was my pleasure to discuss our strategy and output for the consumer in Australia. @apaphysio

While blowing out the candles today my wish is that the next 40 years of Medicare is sustainable, consumer focussed, easier to navigate, outcome focussed and we use all practitioners skills to the fullest. 🎂 @apaphysio #physio

[APA President @president_apa]

It was great to sit down with @CroakeyNews! I feel that if we want true health reform, we need to look at different ways to do things better. One way is using everyone’s full scope of practice and wrapping services around the consumer that drives positive outcomes. @apaphysio

"He did not face a ball, nor score a run, but Australia's physiotherapist could lay claim to being the third most important person in the batting effort that sealed one of the greatest comeback wins in cricket history." Well done, @NJones_21 👏👏👏

[APA President @president_apa]

Two simple solutions put forward by @apaphysio to streamline the patient journey in primary care can be achieved now, by allowing physios to directly refer patients to orthopaedic surgeons within their scope of practice and expand medical imaging rights to physios.

[APA President @president_apa]

Great to have the Australian College of Physiotherapists with the @apaphysio board in Melb. Strategic discussions on the career pathway of #physios and the value to the health system. @hollykbrasher @MarkRound19 @petertzia @MrTomMcMillan @gen_mcglashan
