Health Needs Assessment co-design workshops

Northern Queensland Primary Health Network (NQPHN) is currently preparing its tri-annual Health Needs Assessment (HNA).

The HNA is a systematic method for reviewing the health issues facing the North Queensland population. This is a key document that will assist NQPHN to plan evidence-based activities, aligned with our strategic priorities, to improve the wellbeing and reduce health inequalities of North Queenslanders.

NQPHN invites GPs, pharmacists, allied health professionals, nurses, AMS and ACCHO workers, and community health service providers to attend an interactive co-design workshop around NQPHN’s 2021-2024 HNA.

This is your opportunity to provide feedback on addressing the service gaps that have been identified through quantitative analysis completed as part of the HNA project.

Consultation workshops will be held across the NQPHN in Cairns, Mareeba, Townsville, and Mackay, starting Wednesday 13 September 2021. Click the links below to register your attendance:
