AOGP Training Region

AOGP maintains a large region, which provides an extensive array of training opportunities: from remote practice in the north and west of the state, to training in diverse rural regions, through to outer-metropolitan and urban General Practice. 

The AOGP region covers a large proportion of metropolitan and rural South Australia. In metropolitan Adelaide, AOGP includes the area from the city North, East, and West, and includes four Divisions of General Practice (Adelaide Western, Adelaide Northern, Adelaide North East and GP Partners Adelaide (previously known as Adelaide Central and Eastern). AOGP also has one Training Post within the Southern region (GP Network South). The region includes high and low socio-economic status areas, areas of non-English-speaking populations, and areas of GP shortage.

The rural AOGP region follows Highway One north and west. It includes seven rural Divisions of General Practice and Rural Medicine within South Australia: Yorke Peninsula, Mid North, Flinders and Far North, and Eyre Peninsula. The Adelaide Hills, Murray Mallee, and Southern are shared with Sturt Fleurieu. Southern is only shared because Practices have specifically requested to be part of the AOGP region. AOGP also shares a rural Training Post with Northern Territory General Practice Education (NTGPE) in Alice Springs. The rural AOGP region ranges from inner rural suburbs to popular tourist locations, to industrial and agricultural regions.
