Creating a healthier, better connected Gippsland.

Improving digital health access for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities

Gippsland Primary Health Network is supporting improved access to digital health technology in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities across Gippsland.

Four Aboriginal Controlled Community Organisations (ACCOs) have been supported to build their digital health capability and facilitate improved access to primary and secondary healthcare.

Practice manager at Moogji Aboriginal Health Centre at Orbost, Peter Lisacek, is confident the new technology will be embraced by both health practitioners and patients.

Mr Lisacek and practice nurse, Marni Joiner, underwent recent training and were impressed with the range of diagnostic tools available and the ease of use.
