Welcome to the August edition of our newsletter.
RACGP SA&NT Council
I would like to begin by congratulating our newly elected and re-elected members for their successful nominations in the RACGP SA&NT Council. Of the eight positions available, four members are new to the Council. I encourage all new members to actively participate in Council affairs and I look forward to working with them. At the same time, I would like to take this opportunity to thank retiring members for their hard work and dedication. The RACGP is grateful for your contributions to the organisation.
RACGP SA&NT Member Meeting
This year, the RACGP SA&NT Member Meeting will take place on Saturday 24 August 2019 at the Adelaide Town Hall. This will directly precede the SA Fellowship and Awards Ceremony. The new RACGP SA&NT Council will be introduced and there will be an outline of the achievements over the past year.
The meeting is complimentary for RACGP members, although registration is required. I strongly encourage members to attend this event.
2017–19 QI&CPD triennium
We are now rapidly approaching the end of the 2017–19 Quality Improvement and Continuing Professional Development (QI&CPD) triennium. Over the coming weeks, RACGP SA&NT will be delivering many educational sessions, so I encourage you to take advantage of these events and ensure that you have met your QI&CPD requirements.
For more information about these events, please refer to the RACGP SA&NT events calendar.
GP19
I would also like to remind our members that GP19 is just around the corner and in our own backyard this year. As always, this highly anticipated event brings exciting opportunities for networking and education. I look forward to seeing you there.
Dr Zakaria Baig
Chair, RACGP SA&NT
