    How General Practice Can Save the Health System | Hosted by Dr Norman Swan

    For years GP’s have had to deal with the fallout from a broken system that has overburdened practices and left them on their knees. The solution lies in designing our care system and shaping it for what it does well - caring for individuals as part of a team and improving primary care outcomes.

    In this discussion, led by Dr Norman Swan, we speak to some of Australia's leading experts about the issues facing General Practice today.

    Loss, lessons, and a lifelong legacy - Rachael Casella's story

    Loss, lessons, and a lifelong legacy - Rachael Casella's story
    With Rare Disease Day coming up on the 28th of February, The Patient Voice Podcast is proud to share Rachael Casella’s story.

    Rachael is a campaigner and activist for genetic carrier screening, IVF education, and reproductive health. After losing her daughter Mackenzie at just 7 months old to spinal muscular atrophy type 1 (SMA), Rachael realised that genetic carrier screening could have identified the risk of this sooner, if only it had been offered to her and her husband during her pregnancy.

    She has now dedicated her life - and her daughter’s legacy - to helping other parents access genetic carrier screening.

    As an investigator with Mackenzie’s Mission, a research project for genetic carrier screening, and author of Mackenzie’s Mission, Rachael is a powerful force in the advocacy space.

    Her dedication and commitment under circumstances that most find unimaginable, is breathtaking.
