BREAATHHE is proud to be one of 29 Rural Health Clubs (RHC) nationally. Like all RHCs, BREAATHHE aims to promote rural and remote practice to our members through information exchange, placement opportunities, support and advocacy. With 500+ members, we’re proud-as-punch in mixing it with our capital city RHC mates in forming one of the largest clubs in the country!

We have a multi-disciplinary focus – with members from Medicine, Medical Radiation Science, Nursing, Nutrition & Dietetics, Occupational Therapy, Oral Health, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Podiatry, Psychology, Social Work and Speech Pathology – so it’s a great chance to get to know a little more about other health professions and make some contacts that just might come in handy at the end of your studies.

We run a number of activities each year in order to promote rural and remote health careers to our members. Our activities provide fun and educational experiences for students and include our annual Skills Night, trips to rural and remote areas, themed multidisciplinary networking nights (like our infamous ‘Vegas’ and ‘Around the World’ parties), club BBQs, Rural High School Visits, cultural awareness training, Indigenous health nights, Indigenous Community Festival trips, Interprofessional development speaker nights, and lots more…
