CHN, the ACT’s PHN is leading a consortium of PHNs across the ACT and New South Wales to deliver the Workforce Planning and Prioritisation Program to support GP registrar training.  The Workforce Prioritisation and Planning (WPP) grant will provide advice on community workforce needs (at the GP catchment level) to the Department of Health and Aged Care (DoHAC) to inform the Australian General Practice Training distribution targets. It will also provide advice on AGPT training capacity and pathways to support and encourage registrars to establish a home in a region, settle there and complete training within that region. Supporting doctors to train in a region aims to create General Practitioners (GP)with the skills, professional and personal networks to continue working in these locations post-Fellowship.
