Such a pleasure to meet the Hon. @MaryAnneThomas this morning and have the opportunity to discuss our co-designing abortion care research project. #IWD2023 #AbortionIsHealthcare @northernhealth_ @LisaHui4 @cmvaug @BodilRasmussen4 DrJeanieHenderson @MACHAustralia

First up, new research from @MelvinMarzan @LisaHui4 & co shows the use of outpatient early #medicalabortion steadily increased in VIC since the PBS listing of mifepristone–misoprostol, which helped ensure access to abortion during the #COVID19 pandemic mja.com.au/journal/2024/2… 2/

Changes in the numbers of hospital‐based abortions and outpatient early medical abortions in Victoria, 2012–22: a retrospective cohort study in @theMJA mja.com.au/journal/2024/2… @teegstar @RadioNational @normanswan

I highly recommend the MacHSR program for clinicians with an interest in health service research. I received great support throughout the fellowship and got to connect with and learn from inspiring clinician researchers.

Women often deprioritise their own health. They can also wait longer for diagnosis & treatment for many conditions. This week is #WomensHealthWeek. Check out fantastic resources to support women in prioritising our own health & wellbeing. jeanhailes.org.au/womens-health-…

Northern Health partners with Royal Women's to offer comprehensive fertility services in Melbourne's north. On 12 July, Minister for Health, Hon. Mary-Anne Thomas MP, visited the future fertility clinic site in Epping to discuss investment in fertility care closer to home.

Wonderful news this morning that the @TGAgovau is deregulating medical abortion prescribing and dispensing in Australia, cutting red tape for GPs and improving access for Australian women...a 🧵 1/7

After celebrating Int’l Days of Midwives & Nurses, we caught up with MACH-Track & MacHSR Fellows @IngridSuther1 @JakeMcMahon1993 & @ellierjohnson to find out how they're learning the skills to help drive research translation & improve patient outcomes: ow.ly/LBKW50OqHcZ
