Gippsland PHN works alongside the Victorian Department of Health and the Commonwealth Department of Health, Disability and Ageing to coordinate a strong and effective local primary healthcare response during an emergency situation, such as a bushfire or a flood.
As part of this work, Gippsland PHN maintains an emergency volunteer register. This list includes details of local professionals able to staff primary care field clinics or act as temporary workforce during a disaster, as well as clinics/pharmacies able to scale up services if required.
