The Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM) says the reappointment of Senator the Hon Anne Ruston as Shadow Minister for Health and Aged Care will bring continuity and experience at a time when rural healthcare reform remains a national priority.
The College also acknowledges the value Senator Ruston brings to her additional roles as Deputy Leader of the Opposition in the Senate, Shadow Minister for Disability and the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), and Shadow Minister for Sport.
“Senator Ruston brings a deep understanding of the complex challenges faced by rural and remote Australians when it comes to healthcare access,” ACRRM President Dr Rod Martin says.
“We welcome her return to these portfolios and her continued commitment to addressing the needs of people living outside our major cities.
“Her leadership will be critical in shaping policies that support equity in healthcare, including workforce distribution, access to services, and support for Rural Generalists and the communities in which they live and work.
“There is great value in opening a conversation with Senator Ruston to share how ACRRM and its members are contributing to better health outcomes in some of the country’s most underserved regions.
“As always, the College remains committed to working with all sides of politics to ensure that the voices of rural healthcare professionals and their communities are heard, and that policy is informed by those on the ground delivering care.”
