Primary, Integrated and Community Health aims to increase integration of healthcare delivery for people with (or at risk of) living with long-term health conditions or who have complex needs.
Team structure
The team is led by a manager and supported by an executive committee. We work to improve and better integrate care throughout the person’s entire care journey and across all providers and care settings.
Executive committee
The executive committee has diverse membership including community and primary health care professionals and consumers. The committee promotes a whole-of-system perspective, bringing a focus on integrated and primary healthcare to the ACI and NSW Health.
