Consultation Hub
Welcome to the Townsville Hospital and Health Service Consultation Hub.
This Hub gives everyone in the Townsville Hospital and Health Service community, including patients, carers, staff, healthcare providers and all community members a platform to have their say about health service planning, design, delivery and evaluation.
Our consultations may target specific groups of people or be open to everyone.
Our open consultations are below; we would love for you to get involved and have your say.
For support with the Consultation Hub, please contact the Stakeholder Engagement Unit on {"ct":"rgX1Cxb2mGQvU8LWwjj9aQr0x2h2D\/hRkJ\/WidGBgnSvbdEaTNVMYQ43DYv2W\/Fs","iv":"7bffd638a2040ada3783332418f38928","s":"42dc32ae2aaf6cf8"}.

Townsville Hospital and Health Service is developing a Health Equity Strategy to improve health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
Closing the Gap is not something that can be done by the public health system alone as our first interaction with a patient can often be when they are already unwell.
Therefore, we are seeking input from the wider community about how our hospital and health service can redesign and reshape the way care is provided to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
This survey represents a crucial component in the development of the Health Equity Strategy and will take about 15 minutes to complete.
Based on the feedback, some people may be asked to come to a workshop in January 2022 to help further develop the strategy.

Consumer Survey
Closed 30 September 2021
Good patient outcomes rely on good partnerships between patients, doctors and other health staff. We want to know more about your experience, confidence and thoughts on working well with our health staff. How do you make decisions? Are you confident asking questions? Where do you go for advice?
It is important to know how our patients feel in the health system, how they engage with it, and what they are comfortable in asking when it comes to their own care. This gives us the basis from which we can make decisions to hep our patients feel more empowered in their health care.

Thank you to all those who participated in the survey to inform the development of the Townsville HHS Older Persons Strategy Healthy ageing in North Queensland – A Strategy for improving healthcare delivery for older persons in Townsville Hospital and Health Service 2020 – 2030.
Your feedback strongly supported the desire for an environment that supports older persons interacting with their community and for older persons to remain as independent as possible for as long as possible.
