The Australian Communities Foundation is seeking applications for its sub-fund entitled Goulburn Valley Medical Workforce (GVMW) Fund that aims to improve the health of the Goulburn Valley community through workforce capacity and development.
The Fund will achieve this purpose principally by providing scholarships and making grants to organisations delivering recognised courses to general practitioners.
COVID-19 and associated restrictions have significantly changed how to access primary care services, which in turn may have short and long term consequences for prevention, diagnosis, and management of chronic diseases.
Objectives
All submissions should address these learning objectives:
- How to engage remotely yet meaningfully with the person living with complex diseases
- How to engage with the wider care team
- Effective systems to support practitioners and the client
- Ways to configure the care team and allocate roles to make it effective and efficient
- Appropriate billing arrangements
Funding Information
- GVMW Fund is offering grants totaling $50,000 to organisations able to deliver training courses for general practice teams to develop effective and efficient remote complex chronic disease management approaches.
Eligibility Criteria
To be eligible to be considered for a grant, organisations must:
- Be recognised as a general practitioner skills training organisation
- Be able to effectively provide training in the Goulburn Valley
- Provide demonstrated evidence of successful training programs
