Interested in becoming an Authorised VAD Practitioner in Queensland?
Gold Coast Health is offering a one-off incentive payment to General Practitioners (GPs) practicing on the Gold Coast to do this training which is estimated to take six to seven hours. For a limited time, if you undertake the training and provide evidence of Authorisation status on completion, you will be reimbursed $1424 for your time.
This incentive payment is only available to the first 30 GPs who complete the training.
You are required to notify Gold Coast Health when you have been approved to do training, and again on completion, and aim to complete all of the training before 31 January 2023.
The training itself is free to complete and is RACGP accredited for 14 CPD points and ACRRM accredited for seven PDP hours.
