Our council members have been busy! 🧳✨ Last week, Dr Zoe Burton represented us alongside CPOC and SOBA, at an event hosted by the Obesity Health Alliance, playing a key role in shaping the discussion on the “sickness and prevention” elements of the 10-year plan. Her contributions helped drive the conversation on how these crucial aspects of the strategy can be implemented in practice. A huge thank you to Dr Burton for her leadership and for championing the interests of children’s perioperative care in national health discussions. 👏💙 @SOBAuk @CPOC_News #APAGBI #paediatricanaesthesia #perioperativecare #childhealth #obesityhealthalliance #healthprevention #leadershipinmedicine
