December 5, 2025

The Australasian College for Emergency Medicine Annual Scientific Meeting (ACEM ASM 2025) took place 23–27 November 2025 at the Gold Coast Convention & Exhibition Centre in Queensland.


This year’s theme — “Riding the Wave of Change: Navigating the Future of Emergency Medicine” — brought together clinicians, educators, and healthcare partners from Australia and New Zealand to discuss innovation, sustainability, and the evolving landscape of emergency care.

CC Medical’s Presence

As one of Australia’s leading healthcare recruitment agencies, CC Medical hosted an exhibitor booth throughout the conference.


Our team, led by Douglas Campbell,  Jonathan Richards,  and   Nicki Wade — welcomed hundreds of delegates, offering insight into locum and permanent emergency medicine roles nationwide and guidance for international doctors navigating ACEM pathways and AHPRA registration.


The booth served as a hub for:

  • Networking with FACEMs, trainees, and hospital workforce managers
  • Discussing regional and remote ED placements with flexible rosters
  • Showcasing CC Medical’s travel and credentialing support, which makes locum life simple and rewarding
  • Hosting fun interactive games and giveaways, adding an extra spark to the exhibition experience — congratulations to all our prize winners!
