Dr Hannah Ward: Why I’ve joined a State Government GP hit squad
Dr Hannah Ward is one of the first recruits to the Tasmanian Government's GP rapid response team.
“What I get by doing this is a safety net,” says Dr Hannah Ward. “It is an employee model, and the State Government will fund my position.”
Dr Ward is part of a new hit squad: a sort of fly-in GP A-team that has been formed to give crisis support to GP practices battling to keep the doors open amid the medical workforce crisis.
