The Community Health Taskforce ("Taskforce") has been established to advise the Victorian Government on opportunities to strengthen community health services to better meet the healthcare needs of vulnerable Victorians.
Mr Phillip Bain, former chief executive of Plenty Valley Community Health, will chair the Taskforce. Members from community health services, as well as representatives from the Victorian Healthcare Association, other key organisations and service users will also be included as part of the Taskforce.
The Taskforce will work with community health services, peak bodies, key organisations and communities to set out plans to grow the sector, so that it can provide Victorians with more support and treatment they require.
