The Australian Society of Anaesthetists, based in Naremburn, New South Wales, is a mid-sized not-for-profit organization funded by its members. Established in 1934, it functions as a professional association that supports, represents and educates anaesthetists to promote safe anaesthesia for the community. It emphasizes maintaining high standards within the profession to safeguard patient safety and high-quality care within the Australian health system. The society's primary audience comprises practising anaesthetists and the broader Australian public, benefiting from advocacy, professional development, and educational activities aimed at improving practice. It operates within the non-profit sector and is grounded in the Sydney region; a notable leadership development occurred in November 2021 with Andrew Miller elected president.
