Help protect the public and set national standards for registered health practitioners

National Boards regulate Australia’s 800,000 registered health practitioners and 180,000 registered students across 16 health professions. These Boards consist of community members and practitioner members (who are registered in the relevant profession) and set the professional standards practitioners must meet to be registered.

There is a vacancy on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Practice Board of Australia for registered practitioners from from the Australian Capital Territory, Northern Territory or Tasmania .
