Our people and structure

The ANZCA Council governs the college with the support of the FPM Board and various committees. Its roles include reviewing and approving the annual strategic plan and budget, and developing and monitoring key performance indicators and other benchmarks.

The Faculty of Pain Medicine (FPM) Board oversees the activities of the faculty in accordance with the FPM by-laws and the ANZCA strategic plan.

The Chapter of Perioperative Medicine Board reports to the ANZCA Council on developing and implementing an integrated perioperative care model and educational offerings for Australia and New Zealand, focusing on professional practice, clinical quality, and patient safety.

Our DPAs are all medically qualified and are fellows of the college/faculty. They are part-time, and most have other work as specialist anaesthetists or specialist pain medicine physicians.

Our specialist staff in Melbourne, Wellington, and regional offices around Australia provide the ANZCA Council, FPM Board, and their respective committees with administrative, technical and management support, together with professional advice.
