About | First Nation Health Focus

Who we are

The First Nations Health Focus website has been developed by Brisbane South PHN (Primary Health Network), a not-for-profit organisation.

Our role is to work with health professionals and our communities to understand the health needs of our region, and commission services that directly respond to these needs.

We strive to improve the health outcomes of everyone in our region by creating a more accessible and equitable health system, particularly for vulnerable populations and those at risk of poor health outcomes in the Brisbane south region.

What we do

Brisbane South PHN supports the primary health sector by:

providing support services so health care providers are better placed to care for patients
supporting workforce development through training and education
assisting health care services to implement and use digital health systems
working with others to purchase or commission health services for vulnerable communities
identifying and addressing health service gaps based on careful planning and analysis

Important: Visitors are advised that this website may contain images, videos and voices of First Nations people who have passed away.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we live and work, and of the many different nations across the wider Brisbane south region.

We pay our respects to the Elders, past, present and emerging, as the holders of the memories, the traditions, the culture and the spiritual wellbeing of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across the nation.

We acknowledge any Sorry Business that may be affecting the communities as a whole.

In the spirit of reconciliation, partnership and mutual respect, we will continue to work together with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to shape a health system which responds to the needs and aspirations of the community.
