Introducing the Balonne Rural Health Living Lab
Our flagship initiative brings community members, clinicians, researchers and decision-makers together to co-design practical solutions for rural health.
The Balonne Rural Health Living Lab is Big Sky Health's flagship initiative — a place-based approach to health improvement that puts the community at the centre.
The Living Lab brings together community members, health professionals, service providers, researchers and decision-makers to better understand local challenges and co-design practical solutions.
What we're exploring
- Access to primary healthcare
- Health workforce attraction and retention
- Prevention and wellbeing initiatives
- Service coordination and navigation
- Community participation in health planning
The Living Lab approach ensures that solutions are developed with communities rather than for communities. If you'd like to be involved, we'd love to hear from you.
