Exercise is Medicine Australia empowers primary healthcare providers to effectively counsel patients about physical activity leading to sustained behaviour change, and promotes evidence based screening to easily identify when and how to refer patients to appropriately trained allied health professionals to deliver exercise treatment services. EIM Network members will be promoted as critical allies helping patients to reach physical activity goals for the prevention and management of chronic disease. Interested providers may register for EIM Australia Network based on their current qualifications. Members will also be asked to champion the EIM message throughout their primary healthcare networks and promote the EIM website, tools and resources where appropriate. EIM Australia Network members will show their commitment by accepting a declaration. |

Who can join? Health and Medical professionals across Australia with a specialty or interest in physical activity are invited to join the Exercise is Medicine Australia Network. To maintain a strict health and medical focus, membership will be restricted to primary healthcare providers and researchers in health and medical fields:

| Thanks to EIM Australia’s ongoing partnership with Exercise & Sports Science Australia, Accredited Exercise Physiologists have access to EIM membership as part of their accreditation. |
The fine print: The EIM Australia Network acknowledges existing qualifications and is not an additional credential or qualification. Eligibility requirements apply. Those wishing to become an EIM member that are not Medicare Recognised Providers or researchers in the health and medical field will be assessed on a case by case basis. The decision of Exercise is Medicine is final. Membership is based on a calendar year, and all providers will be required to renew their commitment to the program each year.
