The Flying Doctor
By Royal Flying Doctor Service
Australia is a large, remote, and unforgiving land, with a relatively small population. Some two thirds of Australians live in cities on the coastline, and the remaining live in rural and remote Australia --where the tyranny of distance can make health service challenging.
Sometimes, when people live, work or travel in rural and remote Australia, they can run into trouble. There are accidents and injuries. There are bites, stings or illness. In this podcast, we talk to real patients of the Royal Flying Doctor Service and the role that the Royal Flying Doctor Service plays in serving rural and remote communities.
