State awareness, regional focus & local member commitment
Executive summaryPrimary Care partnerships (PCPs) are a Victorian Government funded initiative bringing together health and social services who in partnership utilise a place-based approach's to identify local service issues and develop local solutions.
The PCP platform is now 16 years young.
GVPCP encompasses the LGA’s of MOIRA, GREATER SHEPPARTON AND STRATHBOGIE.
CONTEXT FOR CHANGEPolitical ~Legal~Social~Economic~Technology
Change has been constant for health and social service organisations for many years as governments shift policies and outsource service delivery.
Health and social services are required to be more responsive to their service users, communities and funding bodies.
At the same time funding has remained tight and demand for services from people with a range of complex needs continues to grow.
THE CHALLENGING LANDSCAPE OF REFORM
• Significant uncertainties in Commonwealth and State relations have led to disruption of programs and funding in health, education, housing and homelessness.
• Competitive tendering is on the rise at a federal and state level
• Labour market shifts are resulting in more part-time work
• Health and social service organisations are having to diversify sources of income
• For-profit providers are providing more competition in aged care, disability services.
• Not-for-profits lack access to finance for investment available to for-profits.
