The Medical Board of Australia is a regulatory body responsible for overseeing the practice of medicine in Australia. It ensures that medical practitioners meet the required standards of education, training, and professional conduct. The board's primary goal is to protect public safety and maintain the integrity of the medical profession. The board manages the registration of medical practitioners and investigates complaints against them. It also sets guidelines for continuing professional development and works closely with other organizations, such as the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA), to ensure effective regulation of healthcare professionals across the country.
