CHN’s focus has shifted to better align with the idea of a better integrated health care system. With the introduction of the 10-Year Primary Health Care Plan, Strengthening Medicare Taskforce Report and the National Allied Health Framework, CHN’s scope has broadened to include more medical professionals and their practices in our work. This has included working with Specialists, Allied Health professionals, RACFs and Canberra Health Services. The development of these relationships has become a major focus, with more support and educational events being offered to these medical professionals.
CHN’s ongoing relationships with fellow PHNs from around Australia has continued to develop. Regular meetings and information sharing has allowed PHN teams to share experience, solutions to shared problems or obstacles faced, and collaborate on educational events or projects.
Attendance at the national Digital Health Festival allowed CHN to learn about new tools, platforms and innovations being explored by users, PHNs and suppliers alike.
