Achieving greater national consistency for the Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Health Worker and Health Practitioner professions

    NAATSIHWP is leading a national consultation across 2024 to determine what practical actions can be taken to achieve greater national consistency for the Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Health Worker and Health Practitioner professions. The consultations will result in the delivery of recommendations to the Commonwealth Government on national minimum scopes of practice baselined against the core competencies in each qualification in the National Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Health Worker and Health Practitioner Qualification Framework.
  • National Consultations
  • National consultations will commence in April 2024. NAATSIHWP visit up to three locations in each State & Territory to meet with Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Health Workers and Health Practitioners about their clinical scope of practice. Online consultations will also be offered for those unable to attend in person. More information about consultations, including dates and locations, will be released shortly.
  • Advisory Group Updates
  • This project is overseen by an Advisory Group of key stakeholders.
