The WA Rural Health Awards recognise and acknowledge health professionals who have dedicated their careers to caring for rural communities, as well as celebrate the achievements of health professionals who have enhanced the range and quality of health care available in rural locations.
Since 2008, Rural Health West has proudly hosted the annual WA Rural Health Awards (previously WA Country Doctors' Awards) to recognise the outstanding contributions made by health professionals working in rural communities. In 2017, WA Country Health Service formed a partnership with Rural Health West to co-host the awards.
The Awards are an integral part of the WA Rural Health Conference (previously Annual Conference), with the Awards ceremonies bringing together the finalists and winners to celebrate their achievements with family, friends and colleagues.
The 2020 Award winners will be announced at the WA Rural Health Conference taking place at the Pan Pacific Perth on Saturday 21 and 22 March 2020.
