Conversations on the Couch
Each year MPHN looks at the various sources of information available about the health of the region including data and feedback from the community. Often we know what data is telling us about the health needs of the Murrumbidgee but it’s important to also know and understand what local people are actually experiencing. The Conversations on the Couch initiative allows for this to occur, whereby staff from MPHN visit several towns with a population greater than 1,000 in the Murrumbidgee. This drop-in session allows community members to voice their concerns about local health and health service issues or challenges. The aim is to gain community views on what locals think can improve health.
On the day you will have an opportunity to speak with an MPHN staff member about health matters or experiences important to you and your community. There is no set agenda or questions we are seeking feedback on - the conversation is led by you.
Conversations on the Couch is an activity as part of MPHN’s HNA Community Feedback. All feedback is collated and used to guide MPHN’s Health Needs Assessment, which helps determine any gaps in services and initiatives.
