Why I'm walking
I spend a lot of my working life talking about rural and remote healthcare, so I figure it’s time to put my feet where my mouth is! 😂
At cmr, we support healthcare professionals to work in communities across Australia where workforce shortages can have a huge impact. Through our It Takes Heart podcast, we also get to share the deeper stories of these incredible people who choose to care for these communities.
The RFDS has more than 900 patient contacts every day, providing care to people who might otherwise struggle to access it. This is made up of:
- telehealth
- clinics
- immunisations in remote locations
- face to face primary healthcare and mental health consults
- retrievals
- dental services
- road transfers and so much more
So, I’m getting my feet moving and raising money for an incredible cause.
If you can spare a few dollars, I’d love your support. Every km and every donation counts.
I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service
Australia is a big country, and for those living in remote, rural and regional areas, access to immediate care isn’t a guarantee. For some communities, the nearest hospital is eight hours drive away.
This October, I’m taking on a month-long fitness challenge to help more people access the care they need. By going further, I hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS).
Every year, the RFDS reach more than 330,000 Australians with 24-hour emergency retrieval and primary healthcare services. That’s one person every two minutes!
Together, we can keep the Flying Doctor flying and continue their life-saving work. Please donate to my challenge today!
So far this year
I’ve helped provide...
1
Laryngoscopes – used to assist in intubating and ventilating a patient.
1
Life-saving medical chests for a remote, rural or regional community.
