When 26 October 2022, 2pm - 5:30pm.
Where The National Portrait Gallery of Australia, Canberra

While the impact of the pandemic on the healthcare workforce has yet to be fully realised, managing the transition of the workforce to new and different ways of working on a permanent basis will be essential to ensuring a health workforce that is agile, valued and supported. This change will require a focus on community and patients, clarity of roles, communication, education and training, as well as strong clinical governance and mechanisms that support coordination and integration.

In this, the 2nd Deeble Lecture, Mr Michael Brennan (Chair, Productivity Commission) will consider the health workforce related policy measures that are required to ensure the most appropriate workforce to meet prevailing needs.

The lecture will be followed by a panel discussion reflecting on the complexities of the health workforce and the way we manage and set health workforce policy in Australia. Facilitated by Professor Anna Peeters (Deakin University), the panel of health leaders will include Mr Michael Pervan (Communities TAS), Ms Yasmin King (Skills IQ), Professor Lisa Nissen (QUT) and Adj. Assoc. Professor Paul Burgess (NT Health).
