As a dedicated professional
and advocate for
diversity and excellence
in healthcare, I'm looking
forward to gaining valuable
insights from Dr. Mrin
Nayagam at [AMAV’s]
upcoming International
Women’s Day event.
Excited to uncover
pathways to success
and celebrate the
achievements of women
in the medical field.

We have partnered
with Australian Medical
Association (Victoria) to
deliver training for health
practitioners who want
to become an assessor of
permanent impairment.
These programs are a
pre-requisite for assessing
permanent impairment
in both the NSW workers
compensation and motor
accident schemes.

Training should always be
accessible and available
to anyone who wants to
learn about the Guides
for the evaluation of
permanent impairment.

As doctors, we need to start
thinking about our own
wellbeing; we’re like the
mouse running round and
round the wheel… nobody
cares how exhausted we
get; someone else will take
over when we fall off…
2024 is the year we start
looking after ourselves.
Targets, deadlines and
patients can wait.
