The Membership Advisory Council met for the first time on Tuesday 9th February: an important milestone for the Adelaide PHN. The Council brings together representatives from the 13 membership groups of the Adelaide PHN, including the three Clinical Councils, three Community Advisory Councils and seven Health Priority Groups. The Council members are engaged in a new, innovative and collaborative dynamic for and with us and the communities they represent.
Over the next two meetings in April and June the Membership Advisory Council will consider priorities for system reform to advise the Adelaide PHN Board and identify opportunities for designing and commissioning innovative primary health care approaches, developing partnerships and undertaking advocacy. The Membership Advisory Council will provide strong leadership and promote further engagement and collaboration amongst the Member Groups, stakeholders and the Adelaide PHN.

More information about this process and the priorities are provided in the MAC Priorities Report.
The Groups are now working collaboratively on actions to address these priorities.
