Southern Adelaide Local Area Needs Assessment

Consultation has concluded. Thanks for your contributions.

To help shape our future services, we want to hear from you about the health and wellbeing services that are important to the southern Adelaide community.

What is the Local Area Needs Assessment?

The Southern Adelaide Local Health Network (SALHN) wants to ensure our services continue to meet the health care needs of the community, by undertaking a Local Area Needs Assessment.

We want to hear from our community, consumers, volunteers, staff, and other key people about the health services and supports that are important to you and your community, both now and into the future.

Your feedback will help us provide the best possible care to you and the community. Share your feedback today to strengthen our services tomorrow.

Background

SALHN is a bold and dynamic organisation that delivers healthcare to more than 350,000 people who mainly live in southern Adelaide.

We are undertaking this important piece of work to get a better understanding of the priority health needs of the local communities that we serve, including unmet health needs and challenges. We want to continue to be responsive to changing needs and enhance the health and wellbeing of the community.

A broad consultation process via YourSAy provides the opportunity for many to voice their thoughts and ideas. We will also be undertaking community consultations.
