Perth North PHN
We support primary health providers – GPs, allied health professionals and other community services – to provide coordinated, efficient and effective medical services to patients, particularly those at risk of poor health outcomes.
We will achieve this by working with general practitioners, other primary health care providers, area metropolitan health services and hospitals to ensure improved outcomes for patients so they receive the right care in the right place at the right time.
Where we service?
We cover north and north eastern areas of the Perth metropolitan area, from Perth City up to Joondalup and East through the Midland/Swan region.
