In 2024, WA had about 97 full-time-equivalent GPs per 100,000 people. Nationally, it was 113.
Across Perth and regional WA, that workforce pressure can make rosters harder to fill and place additional strain on existing clinic teams.
Filling a GP vacancy matters, but it isn't the only staffing lever available. A strong team of Registered Nurses, Enrolled Nurses and experienced clinic staff can help increase capacity while everyone continues working within their appropriate scope.
NHR Staffing Group recruits GPs, Registered Nurses, Enrolled Nurses, occupational therapists and physiotherapists, medical receptionists, practice managers and cleaning staff for clinics across Perth and regional WA, including casual, short-term, permanent, rural and remote placements. Our clinical staff
work across the major clinical software platforms used in Australian general practice.
Our new guide examines the WA workforce shortage and the practical staffing options available to GP clinics.
