The partnership between Western Sydney Primary Health Network and Western Sydney Local Health District has developed an innovative approach that is based on primary care. It aims to alleviate the pressure on emergency departments by equipping general practices with the resources to provide urgent care to patients needing treatment for non-life-threatening conditions, without any cost to the patient.
“The new partnership will strengthen existing achievements in integrating care in the Western Sydney region. It’s great to see our region leading the charge on this whole-of-system approach that will ensure patients get the right care, in the right place, at the right time.” Ray Messom, Chief Executive Officer, WentWest
