We are pleased to announce the latest Toolkit curated by the Elsevier team. This Toolkit focuses on Rural and Remote Health.
Within this ClinicalKey for Nursing toolkit you will find links to some of the latest journal articles, books and drug information relevant to Rural and Remote Health in Australia and New Zealand
The importance of rural and remote health in the Australian and New Zealand region stems from the ethical obligation to provide equitable healthcare services to all populations, regardless of their geographic location. Addressing these concerns requires policy initiatives, innovative healthcare delivery models, increased investment in healthcare infrastructure, and a comprehensive approach to Indigenous health.
