professionals. We do this though sponsoring education events and supporting individuals to undertake

CARPA develops resources to support high quality care in remote and Indigenous health, including activities to improve the utilisation of the Remote Primary Health Care Manuals.
Governance of Remote Primary Health Care Manuals
CARPA plays a key role in the governance and production of the Remote Primary Health Care Manuals. These are a suite of clinical guidelines for primary health care practitioners working in remote Indigenous health services. They guide clinical practice in many areas across rural and remote Australia.
