Associate Professor Monica Moran
Rural Health, Western Australian Centre for Rural Health
The University of Western Australia
An academic of 18 years and an experienced health professional in the field of occupational therapy, Monica completed her undergraduate studies in Dublin but she has spent the bulk of her clinical and academic career in Australia, firstly working at the University of Queensland for 12 years where she coordinated a Master of Occupational Therapy Program. She followed this with a move to Central Queensland University for five years where she led the development of a new occupational therapy degree program in Central Queensland, a large regional location with a chronic shortage of health professionals. This role increased her awareness of the need for innovative learning models to support the provision of team based health services in rural and remote locations that record significantly poorer health outcomes than urban areas in Australia.
Her most recent challenge is a move to the remote Pilbara area in Northern Western Australia, one of the most isolated and under serviced locations in Australia. In her current role she is working directly to support the development of rural health workforce through the creation of authentic student learning experiences, the development of support strategies for rural health teams, and research and evaluation of integrated team programs for some of Australia’s most vulnerable peoples.
She holds adjunct professorial appointments at Queensland University of Technology, Central Queensland University and the University of Derby in the United Kingdom.
In 2010 she had the privilege of contributing to the WHO Framework for Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice (WHO, 2010). Since that time she have participated in interprofessional projects and research activities at local, national and international levels including longitudinal evaluation studies. She is currently a member of a nationally funded project team tasked with developing a national governance structure to secure the development and sustainability of interprofessional education and collaborative practice across Australia.
As a founding member of the Australasian Interprofessional Practice and Education Network she was part of the organizing committee for the international conference All Together Better Health 5, the first international IPE conference to be held in the southern hemisphere. Over the past 10 years she has been a director of the HealthFusion Team Challenge in Australia, growing the project from a local event involving one university to an international event involving students and staff from many universities across Australia and internationally. She have received multiple University Teaching awards and a National Teaching Award in recognition of this work.
Currently Monica is President of the Australia and New Zealand Association for Health Professional Educators, a peak organization providing mentorship and professional development to health professional educators in academic or clinical settings.
