AMA Council of Rural Doctors Chair Dr Marco Giuseppin says Rural and Regional Australia is not immune to COVID19, the redirection of these supplies to vaccinate city Year 12 students is geographic narcissism at its worst. @eclecticmedic

[AMA Vice President @ama_vice]

The Covid-Vaccination program is not just about "me", but about "community". Maybe the younger generation will remind all of us of this. @ama_media

[7NEWS Toowoomba @7NewsToowoomba]

Toowoomba doctors are encouraging their patients to get the COVID-19 vaccination when it's rolled out to the public. https://t.co/srqc170vJl @_kathleenoco #COVID19 #7NEWS

@JudkinsSimon @acemonline Indeed - it's lovely when targets and bureaucracy seem to melt away for good patient care :) #destinationrural @MaritaCowie @ACRRM

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

This is why our brilliant #midwives need backup and support from GPObs, teamwork decreases burnout!

@JudkinsSimon are you at #RMA19?

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

Adorable! #ariel4pm #chinchilladreaming

[Marita Cowie AM @MaritaCowie]

It’s easy to stand with the crowd. It takes courage to stand alone. Kudos Ariel. #Chinchilla ping @eclecticmedic

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

Agreed, rural hospitals need resourcing for good and safe clinical care #auspol #gorural @ACRRM @JHRural

[AMA Media @ama_media]

Rural health is at a crisis point. There is an urgent need for significant investment in rural hospitals, equipment, and medical and health workforce #medtwitter #auspol #gorural https://t.co/PgDrRcJHRN

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

@JudkinsSimon Needs standardisation - same with credentialing, ridiculous to have differences between and in states #credsfail

I got onto Rural Generalist training 6 months into PGY1 - haven't looked back #RG #ruralmedicine #ruralwithacrrm @ACRRM @RACGP

[Dr Marian Dover @DoverMarian]

I got onto the #GP + Rural Generalist Training programs 3 months into my internship (PGY1). General Practice wasn't my fallback option, and it shouldn't be yours either.

If you do General Practice, let it be because you want to do General Practice. It's a calling.

@RACGP @DrJaneMunro @AmyCorderoy Many options for sure - so many female GP's with worthwhile stories and insights. I work with many of them, very sure none were asked.

@rseglenieks @NavSidhu08 I use 100 micrograms unless contraindicated. You can definitely see the difference.

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

Excellent presentation by @amavictoria on #CrazySocks4Docs issues - takeaway from me, go above medical food chain and engage with HR, we all have rights at work.

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

Financial incentives important, but strategy also must address 'soft' factors. More flexible work a potential solution.

[RACGP @RACGP]

Financial incentives not effective in tackling rural GP shortages: A new study has found non-financial factors to be more important when determining where to live and work https://t.co/0MH9BOJVam

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

Spoke at #amanatcon #soapbox today about credentialing of rural doctors and #dit application creep. Important for @ama_media to ask hard questions of colleges and cred bodies @JHRural @ACRRM

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

And they wonder why it feels like #usvsthem @ACRRM @ANZCA @JHRural @ama_media

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

Proud to second this motion! Time for a change in GP training #singleemployer #powertothedit

[AMA Media @ama_media]

The #AMANatCon has voted in favour of developing a single employer model as an alternative to fee for service arrangements to deliver equitable remuneration & employment conditions for GP registrars, and between GP registrars & non-GP registrars’ #AMANatCon Moved by @_daniellemcm

Rural Australians deserve timely access to medical care. It's not too late for the major parties to provide that security and comfort #auspol #ausvotes #gorural https://t.co/ckxvijAVjY

[Dr Marco Giuseppin @eclecticmedic]

Need to address societal issues that make people sick as well, like #bullying #remoteness #isolation #toxic #workplace #culture @JHRural @Caitweets

[AMA Media @ama_media]

We need to give hope to the millions of Australians with lived experience of mental illness, along with their families, friends and carers #auspol #ausvotes https://t.co/M0XWDknnVa
