Community-driven priorities
Our priorities
The HNA helps us to best manage health resources for our region to improve the health outcomes of our community.
While the priority areas are examined individually in this HNA, it is important to recognise that they are interlinked. Activity within one priority will support our other priorities.
Our 10 health priorities for the region for 2022–25 are:
Supporting healthy mothers and children
Improving the health of older Australians
Preventing and managing chronic conditions
Providing primary mental health care
Treating alcohol and other drug use
Improving the health of vulnerable groups
Improving the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples
Promoting health and preventing disease
Increasing access and coordination or care
Increasing workforce capacity and wellbeing
The Darling Downs and West Moreton Primary Health Network (PHN) Health Needs Assessment (HNA) identifies the health priorities and opportunities for our region.
