The Loddon Mallee Local Health Service Network

The Loddon Mallee Local Health Service  Network (LMLHSN) is collaborative partnership between public funded health services in the Loddon Mallee region, aimed at improving health care quality, safety, and service delivery across the region. LMLHSN's vision is to shape the future of health service delivery, ensuring a great person-centred care experience across the region while delivering the right care at the right time in the right place. LMLHSN operates under the values of Respect, Integrity, and Collaboration.

The geography of this Network spans from the more densely populated Macedon Ranges Shire in the south to the remote and more sparsely populated Mallee Region in the far northwest. This grouping reflects the existing patient flows which follow the main transport routes along the Murray River and down towards Bendigo and Melbourne. This diverse region presents unique healthcare challenges, which the LMHN addresses through a region-wide approach to service planning and delivery. The population served is 334,000 (Victoria) + 9,305 (NSW).  Due to the geographical diversity of the region some of the work of the LMHN is best completed in sub-regional groupings.

The LMLHSN strategy and priorities are informed by the needs of the population and also align to the Strategic Direction of the Victorian Department of Health and recently published Health Services Plan.  As such current priorities include; ensuring right care, right time and right place for our communities, building capability across our region, enhancing First Nations leadership within the LMHN and enhanced sharing of systems and services.

The LMLHSN is actively scanning the current strategic environment and ensuring we are responsive to the current opportunities (and risks).  As such there is also a present focus on ensuring our governance model is fit for purpose and aligns with the emerging direction from the Victorian Department of Health regarding the establishment of Local Health Service Networks.
