craft Groups

There are a number of standing committees and craft groups working to benefit the profession under the aegis of the AMA(SA).

 

To join a craft group or committee please contact the secretariat on 08 8267 4355 or email admin@amasa.org.au - or go to the About Us section of this site for the full range of committees and craft groups.


Here are just some of the ways you can participate:

 

Doctors in Training Committee: Protecting the interests of new doctors

 

The Doctors in Training (DIT) Committee looks after the interests of emerging medical professionals. The committee understands the issues that are particularly relevant to this section of the profession and works hard to protect its interests. Doctors in training face particular challenges around medical indemnity, safe working hours, access to annual leave and other pressures resulting from workforce shortages. The DIT Committee gives doctors in training the opportunity to raise concerns or ideas with peers, and with the support of the AMA(SA) behind them, work to resolve or implement them.
Meeting frequency: 6 weekly

Council of General Practice: A voice for general practitioners

 

The AMA(SA)Council of General Practice gives general practitioners the opportunity to put their views forward and also offers a good way to keep abreast of the myriad of changes that impact upon the demanding role GP’s play. The AMA(SA)CGP holds regular meetings covering the gambit of issues that affect general practitioners at both a state and federal level. It also benefits from the strong links to the Federal AMA Council of General Practice which lobbies hard for equitable policies and is a valuable resource for the state council. The AMA(SA)CGP forms a key link between general practitioners and the State and Federal AMA. If you want to be a part of the flow of information and ideas to protect and benefit your profession, why not join this Council and make a difference?
Meeting frequency: quarterly

Working parties: Adapting to change and challenges

 

As specific issues arise, the AMA(SA) Council acts quickly to tackle them. Sometimes the Council sees a need that hasn’t been addressed before. At such times the Council may form a working party so that AMA(SA) can respond quickly and harness the passion and expertise of members who are ready to take on a challenge. An example of this is the Medical Indemnity Taskforce which was formed in response to the recent crisis in this area.
Meeting frequency: As required
