👩⚕️ Advanced practice nurses, nurse practitioners, and clinical nurse consultants play a critical role in shaping the future of healthcare.

The Global Advanced Practice Summit, taking place on 13 May 2025, is designed for advanced practitioners across disciplines, including nursing. The program will explore workforce innovation, scope of practice expansion, and new models of care, providing insights that are relevant to advanced practice professionals in all healthcare settings. With a global lineup of speakers, this Summit will bring together leaders from different professional backgrounds to discuss the challenges and opportunities in advanced practice today. Key themes include: - Working at the top of scope and overcoming barriers to advanced practice - Interdisciplinary collaboration to improve patient outcomes - Innovative workforce models that address healthcare system challenges This is an opportunity to engage in discussions that transcend professional boundaries and focus on solutions that matter to the future of advanced practice. 🎟️ For more details and to register, please visit: https://loom.ly/mQ5HzpA #AdvancedPractice #NursePractitioners #ClinicalNurseConsultants #HealthcareLeadership #WorkforceInnovation #GlobalAdvancedPracticeSummit #GAPS2025

💻 Coming up this Thursday: the next session of Allied Health Perspectives, 'Regulating the Unregulated Workforce - Why This Matters.' Across many sectors—healthcare, aged care, disability support, and traditional community roles—unregulated workers form the backbone of service delivery. From aged care workers in Australia to bonesetters in LMICs, these essential professionals often operate without formal recognition, training pathways, or regulatory support. What are some of the challenges? - Lack of standardised training or credentialing - Limited career progression - Inconsistent quality and governance - Workforce shortages exacerbated by lack of structured pathways Yet, these workers are essential to workforce sustainability and community trust. Join Dr Susan Nancarrow as she explores the Dual Pathway Model which offers a structured yet flexible approach to workforce development in this Thursday's session. 🌐 To RSVP and access the live session, you'll just need to create a free account on The Allied Health Academy platform. For those that can't join us live, the webinars will be recorded and made available on the platform.
