At Cambium Studios, our longest-standing collaboration is with the La Trobe University Violet Vines Marshman Centre for Rural Health Research on the CP@clinic program, a globally recognised community paramedicine initiative. Adapted from the original Canadian model implemented by McMaster University, the program has been tailored specifically for the Australian landscape to improve healthcare access for vulnerable and rural populations.

Since 2020, we have acted as their dedicated visual partners, translating complex clinical data and implementation milestones into accessible, high-impact stories. We developed a strong, cohesive visual language for the program, utilising a calming, health-focused colour palette and an extensive suite of custom icons to bring the CP@clinic mission to life. This systematic approach ensures that technical information, from blood pressure assessments to chronic disease management, feels approachable and human-centred.

Our work spans the full spectrum of the program’s needs, including interim reports, conference presentations, and detailed clinic profiles. A significant highlight was the design of a research poster for ACPIC20, which was awarded the "Best Research Poster Award," proving that even the most rigorous data can be presented with beauty and clarity. Whether showcasing a 39% increase in clinic visits or illustrating the reduction of stress on emergency services, our goal is to ensure this vital work is seen and understood by the community and stakeholders alike.

“Our Community Paramedicine project introduces a new role within health care, which naturally raises many questions. Patients, healthcare professionals, and stakeholders often ask why a paramedic is suited to this role, what they do, whether this sits within their scope of practice, and whether it is safe.

Julia has been invaluable in helping us respond to these questions. They supported us in developing clear, engaging infographics and resources that explain the who, why, what, and how of Community Paramedicine in plain language, supported by simple and effective visual icons. These materials have made it much easier for us to introduce and explain this new role in a way that is accessible and understandable for everyone involved.”
