The Australian health system has traditionally had an acute care focus, and this tends to cascade to health students. Given that we have a major increase in chronic conditions and an ageing population, health reform is vital. Health Science graduates are health professionals who fill the gap in Australia’s health workforce in primary, public and preventative health. They are focused on keeping Australia’s population healthy.
