CAA Congress, presented by The Council of Ambulance Authorities (CAA), is a premier event which showcases the latest innovative technology, practices and case studies across the ambulance health sector.

Held across Australasia annually, 2025 will be hosted by Adelaide, South Australia, and we are proud to announce that the International Round Table on Community Paramedicine (IRCP) will be joining us this year in Adelaide.

IRCP promotes the international exchange of information and experience related to the provision of flexible and reliable healthcare services using novel healthcare delivery models and is a resource for public policymakers, systems managers, and others. CAA has a long history with the IRCP, and we are thrilled to be hosting them back in Australasia after the long COVID break.

The week full of events will commence with the IRCP Welcome Function on 17 August and the conference being held from 18-19h August. From here, CAA Congress gets underway with our memorable Welcome Reception presented by ORH followed by two days (20-21 August) of insightful keynote speakers, interesting innovations and the annual CAA Awards for Excellence Gala Dinner.

After a 2024 CAA Congress full of insightful presentations, 2025 keynote speakers will delivery topics on:

Cyber Security in the Health and Emergency Sectors - Safeguarding Health and Emergency Services in the New Digital Age

Sustainability and Government Reporting - Leading the Way in Sustainability: From Policy to Practice

Psychological Safety of Ambulance Staff - Fostering Psychological Safety: Innovations and Strategies for Ambulance Services

The New Patient – Adapting to Evolving Demands in Ambulance Services - Meeting the Needs of Tomorrow’s Patients: Trends, Innovations, and Workforce Transformation

Heading into its 18th year, the Council of Ambulance Authorities Awards for Excellence aim to recognise the important and innovative work of member services across Australasia, as well as encourage services to share their work and cohesively learn and execute these strategies in their respective communities. Judged by a panel of independent industry-respected judges from across the globe, the Awards for Excellence are an important recognition for all Australasian member services.
