The Rural Allied & Community Health Team in Gayndah has participated in state-wide trials since 2014 of the Allied Health Rural Generalist Pathway, including redesign of existing positions into Rural Development Pathway and Rural Generalist Training Positions, and implementation of service improvement projects to support the learning of the trainees and to provide tangible benefits for the local community. Simultaneous development and expansion of allied health assistant roles in Gayndah and outlying service centres and increased use of Telehealth is increasing access to allied health services across the region.
