Hi everyone, I’m thrilled to welcome you to PhysioHub – our new online space designed to bring our profession closer together. This platform opens up a new way for us to communicate, share ideas and strengthen the connections that drive our work forward.
For me, PhysioHub is more than a digital tool. It’s an opportunity to open the lines of communication between members and the leadership of the APA in a way that’s more immediate and transparent than ever before.
Here’s what you can expect to hear from me:
- What’s on my mind: reflections on the issues shaping physiotherapy and what they mean for our profession.
- What we’re planning at the Executive Leadership Team: insights into the priorities we’re working on and how we’re turning strategy into action.
- Progress with strategic initiatives: updates on the commitments we’ve made to members and where we’re tracking against them.
- What’s a focus for the Board: an inside look at the decisions and discussions shaping our long-term direction.
I want this to be a two-way conversation. Your feedback, questions and perspectives are critical to ensuring we’re moving in the right direction together. I invite you to share your thoughts with me here.
For now, I’d love for you to have a good read of the August issue of InMotion – an issue that places the spotlight on building the physiotherapy workforce in rural, regional and remote Australia. On page 66, in my Final Word, I’ve shared my own experience as a student working in a rural setting and I highlight the challenges, opportunities and the APAs advocacy for government support to increase the number of physiotherapists working in rural communities.
This is our space. Let’s make the most of it together.
Let me know what you think.
