ADF health centre / garrison accreditation
To apply for special training environment site accreditation, ADF health centres and/or supervisors need to complete an RACGP ADF health centre accreditation application form and email it to: adf@racgp.org.au. The application will then be referred to the appropriate regional accreditation coordinator.
The RACGP understands that ADF environments, including health centres can have fluid teams due to deployments and other ADF commitments and that supervision is provided via a group arrangement. To become an additional supervisor at an already accredited ADF health centre, complete the RACGP ADF Health centre supervisor accreditation application form and email to the relevant Regional Accreditation Coordinator or adf@racgp.org.au
