Primary Health Care Needs of People Experiencing Homelessness

MGPNs Upcoming Research: Exploring the Primary Health Care Needs of People Experiencing Homelessness or Unstable Housing within Melbourne’s CBD and Inner Suburbs.

MGPN has received funding to conduct ground-breaking research into health care for those affected by homelessness or unstable housing. This research will survey GPs, Pharmacists, homeless services and those experiencing homelessness or unstable housing exploring their beliefs, experiences and practices to illustrate current access to, and provision of, health care. In addition, it will investigate recommendations to increase and improve access to health care.

MGPN will be asking all GPs in the MGPN area to participate in this vital research. Keep your eyes out for the survey, which will be sent to you later this month and have your say.
