ALLIED HEALTH STUDENTS VISIT GARDS
In the second week of August 140 1st year Allied Health students visited the Gippsland region. The students were here to learn about health promotion and disease prevention approaches, as well as seeing how various sectors and health disciplines fit together in rural and regional settings. GARDS was privileged to have 15 of these students with whose chosen profession paths are Physiotherapy, Health Science/Social Work and Occupational Therapy. The students were placed with GARDS for the day and were exposed to a variety of topics and speakers around asbestos some of which were the Health, Emotional, OH&S, Political and Environmental aspects. In the afternoon some of the GARDS support group members came along to give personal insight into their health and wellbeing. We believe the students gained a great deal about rural and regional life, so that they might more positively consider living and practising in this region in the future. Secretary Vicki Hamilton said the students were a delight to work with and very enthusiastic, we hope to see more of this happening into the future. We wish these students all the best with their chosen professions.
