Aboriginal Consumer and Community Engagement

Shared relationships and Aboriginal Community engagement help us to ensure high quality services that meet the needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and community expectations.

Their involvement allows us to have ongoing conversations with the Aboriginal Community about the planning, designing, monitoring and delivery of quality care to Aboriginal patients and families. We value these relationships and meaningful involvement as an essential part of strengthening trust in CALHN now and into the future.

These relationships have created representation across our network, including the Yaitya Marnintyarla Kangka Committee.
