Catholic Health Australia is pleased to announce Minister for Health and Aged Care the Hon Mark Butler MP will speak at its annual conference.
Mr Butler will address up to 300 board directors, CEOs, and senior executives from CHA’s hospital, aged and community care providers at the conference in Perth in August.
Other speakers already confirmed to speak are NSW Anti-Slavery commissioner James Cockayne and leading social commentator and demographer Bernard Salt AM.
Minister Butler was appointed Minister for Health and Aged Care in May 2022 and inherited a health system that had been operating under intense pressure for three years of COVID.
CHA CEO Pat Garcia said he is looking forward to the minister’s address.
“I am delighted to announce the Hon Mark Butler will address our annual conference,” he said.
“The Minister brings a wealth of experience and insight to both the health and aged care sectors. He has served as Minister for Ageing and Australia’s first Minister for Mental Health in the Gillard Government. He has written a book about Australia’s ageing population and the challenges this poses to the care sector.
“We look forward to hearing his insights on our health and care system and how we respond to those challenges through our mission.”
“CHA’s National Conference is shaping up to be an enlightening and informative event for our members.”
