About this consultation

The South Metropolitan Health Service (SMHS) is developing its next Strategic Plan.

The Strategic Plan will set out what is important to SMHS and what we want to focus on over the coming years. It will help guide our priorities and the way we plan and deliver health services for our community.

Our work so far

We have been listening to different perspectives and considering the challenges and opportunities that may shape healthcare in the future. We have identified some possible priorities and now want to hear from consumers and community members to make sure our Strategic Plan reflects what matters most to the people who use our services.

What we would like to hear from you

The experiences and views of our patients, consumers, carers and community members are an important part of developing the Strategic Plan.

We want to understand:

  • what is most important to you when receiving care
  • what makes a positive healthcare experience
  • whether the areas we are considering as priorities for the future reflect what matters to you
  • whether there is anything important we have missed
  • what you would like to see improve in the future.

Get involved here

The activities below explore three important questions:

  1. What has your experience of healthcare been like?
  2. What should SMHS focus on in the future?
  3. And what would success look like for our community?

We encourage you to complete all three activities.
