The RRIPM Roadmap: 2025-2028

This roadmap outlines a three-year plan to develop the Rural and Remote Institute of Palliative Medicine. It details achievable solutions to address rural palliative medicine workforce challenges, leading the way for rural workforce sustainability.

The Rural and Remote Institute of Palliative Medicine (RRIPM) is a program supported by the Australia New Zealand Society for Palliative Medicine (ANZSPM) with the specific purpose of strengthening access to, and support for, palliative medicine training in rural and remote communities within Australia.

As a virtual coordinating body, RRIPM builds capability, advances specialist palliative medicine training in non-metropolitan settings, and will increase the rurally based palliative medicine workforce over time. RRIPM offers an integrated Rural and Remote Training experience:

• designed by rural doctors for rural doctors
• based on RACP competency-based training curriculum
• offering high-quality fully supported rural training experiences.
