Congratulations to our Dalby Medical Educator, Dr Tiffany Cover.

We are incredibly proud that Tiffany has been named the 2026 ACRRM Supervisor of the Year state winner for Queensland.

Tiffany plays an important role in RuralMedEd’s LongLook program, supporting Griffith University medical students undertaking extended rural clinical training in Dalby. Through her teaching, clinical supervision and mentoring, she helps students build their skills and confidence while experiencing the breadth and rewards of rural medical practice.

Rural Medical Education Australia congratulates Dr Tiffany Cover, our LongLook Medical Educator in Dalby, on being named the 2026 ACRRM Supervisor of the Year state winner for Queensland.

Tiffany makes an important contribution to the LongLook program, supporting Griffith University medical students undertaking extended rural clinical training in Dalby. Through her teaching, supervision and mentoring, she helps students translate their academic learning into confident clinical practice while developing a deeper understanding of rural healthcare and the communities it serves.
