@amavictoria Care close to home can be more efficient and effective, and may require incentivising.
Here’s to a great two days of the Health Sector Summit!
@amavictoria Minister Thomas calls on everyone in the room to put patients at the centre of everything we do. And to implement changes to support this.
For example, delivering care close to home.
@amavictoria Minister Thomas reflects on superlative feedback about our health system received from the Irish Prime Minister when he recently visited, including less hierarchical and patriarchal structures in Victoria.
@amavictoria Emergency Departments are facing record presentations. There were fewer (2 million fewer) presentations to general practice last year. The Victorian Virtual Emergency Department is assisting with service delivery in this setting.
@amavictoria Minister Thomas highlights the Surgical Recovery and Reform program & the associated reform work - including the importance of non-surgical pathways for patients referred with conditions that may be treated by surgery.
@amavictoria Minister Thomas asks us to hear and believe the stories of women’s pain and their health and personal experiences. Victoria aims to be nation leading and world leading.
@amavictoria@anmfvic Minister Thomas has asked Bob Cameron to consult & develop a Health Services Plan, and to consider how we might improve the structure of the Victorian healthcare system, to create better outcomes for patients.
Minister Thomas acknowledges that healthcare workers are tired, noting the feedback of @amavictoria and @anmfvic, and that primary care faces significant challenges.
Excited to be at the 2024 Health Sector Summit. Looking forward to today’s sessions on improving care connectivity and population health. Our aim: enhanced collaboration for better patient outcomes.
