>>Dr Ebonney van der Meer:

Welcome to Fresh Fellows for 2027.

This workshop is for alumni post-fellowship years 1 to year 5 and it's all about, I guess, connecting, networking.

How do you best look after yourself to make sure that your career in rural medicine is as long as and fulfilling and you can thrive and flourish as much as you possibly can.

There'll be some opportunities for upskilling in obstetrics, anaesthetics, mental health and skin cancer medicine, but plenty of opportunities just to reconnect with your purpose, reconnect with yourself and really find that happy medium and balance moving forward into the next phase of your career.

Look forward to seeing you there.
