Membership of Welfare of Anaesthetists SIG
We welcome all new members to this growing and energetic SIG! To join the Welfare of Anaesthetists SIG you no longer require nomination and applicants can directly apply on the ANZCA website.
There has been a change to the membership criteria for joining a Special Interest Group (SIG). This change was approved by the ACE Executive in May and discussed at the ACE meeting held at the 2018 ANZCA ASM.
The change opens membership of SIGs to specialists from all medical disciplines and is to be representative of the collegiate and collaborative nature of medicine and the multidisciplinary work of many SIGS. Importantly all members of the SIG (inclusive of SIG executive) will now have voting rights.
Associate membership has also subtly changed and is open to non-medical specialists who are not eligible for general SIG membership. This may include associate members of the ASA and NZSA and/ or allied health professionals. Associate membership requires endorsement from the SIG executive committee.
