A mixed methods longitudinal cohort study, with data collected via end-of-placement and post-graduation surveys. Over 13 years, 311 allied health ‘year-long’ immersive rural attachments, as well as short-term placements, were supported. Pre- and post-placement rural practice intention ratings were paired (from 572 end of placement surveys) for 553 (96.7%) students. Students from metropolitan (49.4%, n = 273, p < 0.001), and rural origin (50.6%, n = 280, p < 0.001) showed a significant increase in rural practice intention. At 1 year post-graduation, 40.3% (n = 145) of graduates had worked in a rural or remote location in Australia, 39.9% at 3 years (n = 87) and 36.5% (n = 42) at 5 years. Longer-term rural attachments were found to be associated with rural practice location, independent of rural background. Those who had undertaken a longer rural attachment (≥18-weeks) were twice as likely to be working in a rural or remote area than those <18 weeks at 1 year (OR 2.018 95% CI 1.204–3.382) and 2.7 times as likely at 3 years (OR 2.727, 95% CI (1.325–5.614). Supporting students to undertake rural immersive attachments appears to be associated with greater rural practice intention and later rural practice.]]> Thu 28 Sep 2023 08:59:20 AEST ]]> Simulation as a component of introductory physiotherapy clinical placements https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:35910 Thu 16 Jan 2020 13:25:08 AEDT ]]> Exploring the Lived Experience of Parenting a Child with Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:49305 Thu 11 May 2023 14:32:03 AEST ]]> Evaluating interprofessional learning modules: health students' attitudes to interprofessional practice https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:14581 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:22:41 AEDT ]]> Students' experiences of learning to work with other professions: If we read enough patient notes will we learn collaboration? https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:29821 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:40:51 AEDT ]]> Educators working together for interprofessional education: from "fragmented beginnings" to being "intentionally interprofessional" https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:25849 only positive attitudes towards all professions.

This cross-sectional study collected survey data and objective health measures between 2017 and 2020 at two events held in rural New South Wales, Australia. Participants included in the analysis were adults > 65 years of age. Data included demographic and health information, anthropometric measures (height, weight, waist circumference), and dietary and physical activity data. A total of 256 people > 65 years participated. Our sample, which was mostly male (59.0%), contained people aged between 66 and 75 years (72.3%). Participants lived in either a large rural (34.0%) or small rural town (22.3%), with low levels of education (60.9% did not complete high school). Dietary quality was rated as below average. All but 17.2% of the participants reported having a health condition. The risk of a health condition was associated with increasing age, lower education, and higher waist circumference, but not remoteness. Rural events may provide an opportunity to access, engage with, and understand the health of older rural Australians, especially males. They may offer ideal contexts for health and nutrition promotion opportunities in rural areas where access to health professionals is limited.]]> Fri 27 Jan 2023 10:52:54 AEDT ]]> Profile and rural exposure for nursing and allied health students at two Australian universities: a retrospective cohort study https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:39506 Fri 10 Jun 2022 15:07:29 AEST ]]> Lived experience of parents and carers of people receiving services in rural areas under the National Disability Insurance Scheme https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:49130 Fri 05 May 2023 11:53:12 AEST ]]>
