The new agreement, announced by WA Minister for Health Amber-Jade Sanderson MLA alongside WACHS Chief Executive Jeff Moffet and RFDS WA CEO Judith Barker ASM, places the journeys of patients front and centre and ensures a modern, integrated approach to health service delivery that incorporates the most up-to-date clinical and aviation standards.
RFDS WA Chief Executive Officer Judith Barker thanked WACHS and the WA Government for their trust and belief in our service.
“Our new agreement with the WA State Government sets the RFDS WA up for a bright future in regional WA,” Ms Barker said.
“We are proud to be part of the fully integrated health network across WA, which includes our close collaboration with regional hospitals, St John WA and many other organisations.”
Patient care remains at the heart of everything the RFDS WA does. This new agreement will ensure that the clinical outcomes of patients remain front and centre.
Last year the RFDS WA retrieved more than 10,000 patients to definitive care across WA. Together with WACHS, the RFDS WA remains committed to providing seamless care to regional Western Australians.
