In April, we launched Healthy Western Sydney, a free service directory for community members and health professionals. The directory currently offers information on aged care, dementia and palliative care services in Western Sydney and we plan to expand this to include other services in the future.
The service directory has a user-friendly search function and information is easy to read and navigate, and provides a snapshot of the services offered, including service mode of delivery, cost, referral and booking information. Suitability information is available, especially useful if looking for services specifically for First Nations or culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) patients.
The directory also includes links to additional helpful resources including the National Health Services Directory, Provider Connect Australia and Western Sydney HealthPathways.
