CheckUP’s Health Industry Workforce Advisor (IWA) Alina Khalid recently attended the 2025 APNA Festival of Nursing, joining nurses and health leaders from across Australia to explore the future of primary health care.

The conference showcased a range of innovative workforce models and tools including shared medical appointments, the use of AI to augment healthcare providers, team-based approaches such as GP–Aged Care Nurse coordination models. These sessions provided valuable insights into how different models can strengthen access to care, improve collaboration, and better support both patients and providers.

For CheckUP, being part of events like this ensures that our IWA program continues to bring up-to-date workforce knowledge, ideas, and innovations back to the practices and providers we work with every day. This means our clients benefit not only from direct workforce support but also from the latest thinking across Australia’s primary care sector.
