Our committees
Brisbane North PHN is committed to working with others to create and deliver the best possible health and community care system for the people of our region.
Our committee members bring their varied health experiences and insights to inform improved service planning and delivery.
One of the PHN's roles is to understand the healthcare needs of our community. We do this through analysis and planning, helping to identify and address service gaps.
Brisbane North PHN’s Clinical Council and Community Advisory Committee, engage local clinicians and the community in the planning processes of the PHN.
Members of the Clinical Council and Community Advisory Committee bring together a wealth of experience across general practice, allied health, community health providers, public and private hospital and health services, Queensland Ambulance Service, consumers and the community.
Both groups meet regularly to provide locally-relevant advice and strategic input to the Brisbane North PHN Board. These groups play a critical role in supporting the delivery of best practice clinical and community health care in order to improve health outcomes for our communities.
The Clinical Council is comprised of 12 members and includes general practitioners, nurses, allied and mental health professionals along with acute care specialists, paramedics and pharmacists, representing the full spectrum of healthcare services.
The Community Advisory Committee includes nine consumer and carer representatives with extensive experience across a range of community health services as well as representatives from populations with unmet health needs.
These individuals bring their varied health experiences and insights to inform improved service planning and delivery.
