APA acknowledges Professor Mark Cormack’s work on the SoP report, providing robust, evidence-based solutions to enhance high-value care. We commend Minister Mark Butler’s leadership in reimagining healthcare’s future and look forward to supporting transformative change together.

Now that is true health reform! And vision that will allow the patient to choose the pathway of care appropriate for them.

The APA welcomes the Scope of Practice Review report released today, highlighting key reforms that strengthen physiotherapy's role in Australia’s health system. These changes mean better care, faster treatment, and improved access for all Australians. australian.physio/media/reform-s…

LOVE @DrCChambers “it doesn’t have to hurt” campaign in Canada - helping kids with needles. We need to launch a similar campaign in Australia so people are aware of pain relief options for IUD insertion!#auspainsoc

@KJaneChalmers @DrCChambers I’ve had mine done with a TENS machine on. 👌🏻

Any DV victim will be able to tell you how ineffective AVOs can be when the perpetrator is determined to make life hell. We're failing women like Molly Ticehurst. You shouldn't have to die to leave violence. @janecaro @FullStopAus @DV_NSW smh.com.au/national/nsw/m…

Leading women’s health physiotherapist Catherine Willis APAM said women face stigma and shame about their symptoms, and are not offered appropriate healthcare options.

The APA is calling on the federal government in its submission to the Senate Inquiry looking into issues related to perimenopause and menopause to invest in credible and primary healthcare, such as physiotherapy.

‘This Inquiry is an unprecedented opportunity to examine and discuss the secrecy that has been associated with the symptoms of menopause and reimagine the healthcare system to meet the complex needs of perimenopausal and menopausal women’, she said.

#physios in #tasmania can reduce waiting lists for joint replacements by using high value care. The funding by the next government could enable a better life for many Tasmanians.

Great discussions and kicking goals for the future of the Physiotherapy profession at APA NAC 2024. @apaphysio @president_apa @hollykbrasher

Physiotherapists treat female patients across the country every day, and some of our biggest priorities this year include issues affecting women. Just last week we launched our Physiotherapy and Birth Trauma position statement. If you missed it, visit australian.physio/birthtrauma

We are very interested in the outcomes of today’s 2024 National Women’s Health Summit. We know there is much to be done to reduce disparity and bias experienced by women, as well as to ensure they receive the best care possible.
