Regional After-Hours Advisory Group

The Regional After-Hours Advisory Group has been established for 18 months to provide support and advice to the Western NSW Primary Health Network on:

• a regional response to after-hours services in the Western NSW and Far West NSW regions;
• a consultation process involving both consumers and health professionals;
• differing needs for after-hours services in Western NSW and Far West NSW communities;
• the health workforce to support after-hours services; and
• potential after-hours models that provide access to after-hours services for all Western NSW and Far West NSW communities.
