Facilitating access to care in a COVID-19 environment
Message from Ahpra and National Boards – December 2021
This document has been prepared by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (Ahpra) and the National Boards in response to requests for guidance to assist health practitioners facilitate people’s access to care in the current COVID-19 environment. The guidance reinforces existing codes and guidelines and other publicly available information and does not introduce new or different requirements for practitioners.
Ahpra and the National Boards recognise that registered health practitioners have led the remarkable public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia and commend them for their sustained efforts.
