The PHN is pleased to advise ongoing support of activities improving access to COVID-19 vaccinations for priority populations until the end of 2024.
As we mark the first year of this initiative, we are eager to hear from you—our community members. Your insights are invaluable in helping us understand the impact of our services and identify areas for improvement.
Hunter New England and Central Coast Primary Health Network (PHN) is undertaking a series of online consultation sessions designed to help shape the future of healthcare in communities across the regions it serves.
The Your Health, Your Community, Your Say series is targeting communities across all 23 Local Government Areas (LGAs) within the PHN footprint. The aim is to gain valuable insights from community members about their health needs, priorities in their community, and their ability to access services.
Your input into this forum will be used by The PHN to report the findings to the Department of Health and Aged Care in a formal report, titled Needs Assessment. The report is due for submission in November 2024. Please note your input will remain anonymous.

Are you a GP regularly encountering patients with bruising, bleeding, or iron-related symptoms? Icon Cancer Centre’s free CPD webinar on ‘Blood Essentials’ might be for you! Bruising, bleeding and iron-related symptoms, while common, can indicate a range of conditions – from non-malignant disorders including iron deficiency and haemophilia, to blood cancers such as Leukaemia.
In this webinar, leading Clinical Haematologists A/Prof James Morton AM and Dr Melissa Hancock, will guide you through best practice pathways to ensure optimal patient care when these symptoms present in general practice. Case-study based and GP led, you’ll learn how to identify initial investigations, recognise red flags, and understand treatment options and critical junctures for haematological referral.
