Their Mission
To provide excellence in aeromedical and primary health care across Australia
Guiding Values
Their ur people are dedicated and passionate about bringing first class health and emergency services to people in the bush. They are very much part of the communities they service.
The challenges of health access outside Australia’s cities make the Flying Doctor’s services vital to those who live, work and travel in rural and remote Australia. Their job is all about doing all they can to improve health outcomes and save lives.
Operating across vast distances, harsh landscapes, and in far from ideal conditions, necessitates resilience, resourcefulness, innovation and a continual striving for excellence.
