Abstract:
On 19th June 2025, the federal Department of Health, Disability and Ageing released the Psychiatry Supply and Demand Compendium report,1 which provides modelled calculations of baseline and projected Australian psychiatrist workforce levels and needs. These models suggest a substantial undersupply. The supply of domestic trainees and overseas-trained psychiatrists merits further study. Career pathways, succession planning, and leadership development need attention. This editorial discusses the implications of the report, by examining the methodology,2 current workforce context, and identifying areas that merit further research. The report projects supply and demand, and needs to be considered in the development of a workforce plan.
