Information Partner Newsletter Winter 2024

This edition of the newsletter features healthdirect’s call-back phone service, which boosted life-saving COVID vaccinations among vulnerable Australians and formed a vital part of the government response to the pandemic. The newsletter also explains how the healthdirect medicines information service is filling a significant knowledge gap, meeting consumer needs through a medicines resource that is both easy to access and understand.

Our Information Partner stories include an interview with A/Professor Alison Kennedy, Director of the National Centre for Farmer Health, and the innovative work being done by the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, 1800RESPECT and Siblings Australia.

Can we share something you’re working on?

We love to hear news from our Information Partners. Please contact us if you’d like us to consider including an article to showcase a new service or an innovative project in the next Information Partner Newsletter.

Your Partner Managers,

Christina Brimage and Jennifer Brittain
