A visionary Doctor I know introduced a roster wherein FACEMs & Emergency Adv Trainees had to do 1day/month in a smaller rural hospitals of the network. The effect was rapid. No requests for transfer denied. Camaraderie & respect for rural peers grew. #MedTwitter @ACEMPresident

Many thanks to @rural_doctors and other supporters of the @SandpiperAus charity - helping to narrow the #traumagap in rural Australia by supplying prehospital kit to rural clinicians. Donations are tax deductible & help save a life

Dr Alex was a recent recipient of a Sandpiper bag, thanks to the foundation @NAB. This will help Alex to treat patients in critical situations. Help us provide more of these lifesaving kits to rural communities. ruraldoctorsfoundation.org.au/latest-campaig… #donate #ruraldoctorsfoundation #givelife
