The Consumer and Community Participation Framework provides a blueprint for the way Sydney Local Health District will work in partnership with our consumers and communities. The Framework provides an integrated approach to investing in and developing our relationships with our communities.

This framework provides a foundation for identifying inequity in health and health care and taking action to reduce it, being clear about our values, building on existing good work and further understanding what health services can do to reduce health inequity.

The purpose of this Plan is to equitably improve the health and wellbeing of culturally and linguistically diverse people in the District by promoting good health, preventing ill-health and providing accessible and safe healthcare.

This framework aims to assist departments  within Sydney Local health District to assess and identify local actions to ensure that our population gains the greatest benefit possible from their health care information and services.
