HEALTH & WELLBEING

RMOA is committed to acknowledging and supporting the health and wellbeing of our members in the Illawarra Shoalhaven. 

The RMOA is in close communication with the JMO Unit across the LHD to advocate for improved standards and practices. Our Wellbeing Officer works hard to ensure issues are raised with the executive. 

​

Wellbeing is also about having something different about your day. It might be as simple as a free coffee or a moment to catch up with friends outside of work.
