Multidisciplinary Allied Health Student Placements with Primary Health Care Providers

Chief Investigator

Multidisciplinary Allied Health Student Placements with Primary Health Care Providers examines the implementation and value of multidisciplinary allied health student placements within primary healthcare settings in rural and remote communities. The study explores how integrating students from different allied health disciplines into primary care supports interprofessional learning, collaboration, clinical skill development, and understanding of holistic, person-centred care. It also investigates the experiences of students, clinical supervisors, and primary healthcare providers, including the benefits and challenges of delivering student-led services under supervision. Findings will inform the development of sustainable placement models that enhance health professional education, strengthen primary healthcare service capacity, and improve access to allied health services in rural and remote Australia.
