Re-thinking Recovery receives a PIEF 2025 Award
The IPAR team connected and collaborated with industry colleagues over the 2 days of PIEF Conference in Sydney, sharing ideas and innovations around the 2025 theme of ‘Evolve: The Future is Now’.
IPAR’s Aaron Bowes and Chris Skaroupka took to the presentation stage during the conference. Aaron presented on the topic of ‘Reaching Further: Bridging the pain care gap for rural and remote workers with virtual reality and telehealth’. And Chris was joined by RSL Queensland to present on the topic of ‘Innovating Insurance: Integrating veteran-specific employment and recovery models to drive system-level performance’.
We were also proud to see Aaron and our Re-thinking Recovery team selected as a joint winner in the PIEF Awards in the ‘Excellence in Injury & Disability Rehabilitation’ category, in recognition of their outstanding work in setting a new national standard in pain, recovery and return to work.
Congratulations to Aaron and the Re-thinking Recovery team!
